Christmas tree!

Sunday we went and got our christmas tree with some friends. We took a hayride out to the trees and then once you cut it down they come by and pick you and your tree back up. Hunter was no enjoying the cold weather, but everyone else seemed to enjoy it.

The tree is up! Now if I can keep Izzy from running off with my tree skirt. I thought if I put some presents on it, it would keep it from moving...not so much now she gets a skirt and presents with one tug.

The last few weeks...

Here are a few pictures from the last week or so. Brylee had school pictures so there are some of her posing at home trying to get ready for them :) We also went to a dairy farm. The kids got to feed the baby cows a bottle...I think Josh enjoyed it the most :) Brylee had her Thanksgiving party. They sang us songs and then had a snack for us. Before we left for Thanksgiving we got to meet Barlow girl and hang out with them. We had a great time and are such solid girls! Thanksgiving pictures will come soon!

New Puppy!

The kids early Christmas present. She is Chihauha/shitzu. She's 4 months old and a super sweet personality. I think have lost our minds, but the kids love her!

Day at the park!

Today the weather was gorgeous, so I took the kids to the park for lunch, then went and had ice cream. Trying to enjoy as many beautiful weather days as we can before the snow comes. I love these days with my kids!

Fall!

Jordan taught the kids how to role down the hill. Didn't get my camera in time to take a picture of her rolling down. We think Hunter is allergic to grass thru this...his eyes were all swollen and was itching everywhere when they were done. Lets hope he grows out of it by time he's old enough to mow :)

Hunter trying to fix the weather strip on the basement door. He always has his tools on him and fixing anything and everything even if it doesn't need fixing!

Halloween!

Halloween seemed to last forever this year. Maybe because we had too many parties the kids went to. Once it came time to actually trick or treat they could have cared less. Then all the trick or treaters came to the door and decided they wanted to go afterall. Needless to say we ended up with way too much candy. Here are a few pictures from the week.

We ended the week of festivities with movie night in the fort. I made a popcorn suprise with the halloween candy, chocolate peanut butter balls, and oreo truffles. The kids had fun!

Our backyard friends!

We started out with 2 turkeys a few weeks ago. The kids named them Dora and Kilan....This morning there were 15 hens and this evening 4 toms. The kids are loving it. Looks like we won't have any problems having a turkey on our table for Thanksgiving this year :)
