Merry Christmas

We had a great Christmas this year. It was busy with it being on Sunday and talking with missionaries. But we loved it. We are so blessed.

And look...Santa found us.

 

December Days

 It really is the most wonderful time of the year. I just love the magic that is in the air. From the lights to the music to the Spirit that is felt, we love it all so much.

It's Beginning to Look A Lot Like Christmas

With the kids being sick and us not being able to go anywhere for the weekend, we took advantage of it and put up Christmas. We love, love, love Christmas so it can never start too early, right?

All done. She did a great job on her own little tree.

Happy Thanksgiving

This year both kids were sick for Thanksgiving. So while they were napping we had a little make-shift Thanksgiving dinner all to ourselves. We have to much to be thankful for especially our little kiddos and each other.

Disney on Ice!

She is loving all things Disney so much lately that we thought it would be fun to go to Disney on Ice, and it was. She had a great time and we loved watching her enjoy it.

Happy Halloween!

Each year we love to dress up for Halloween with a fun, family theme. This year-TANGLED! Our little princess thinks she's Rapunzel herself, so we went along with this. Joining her were Pascal, Flynn and Mother Gothel!

Fall Fun!

 I love summer so much that I hate to see it go. Because of this I haven't always been a big fan of the Fall. But with the traditions we've made, I enjoy it more and more each year. We had a great time this year with all the fun things we got to do.

Hayride and Pumpkin pick

We went on a fun hayride that took us out to a pumpkin patch and we all got to pick out our pumpkins!

Finding the perfect pumpkin.

  
We also went to the pumpkin walk where we got to see hundreds of carved pumpkins all lit up.

  

Carving our pumpkin!

 It's Rapunzel!

  

We also attempted to enjoy football this fall. We only made it til half time.

Fall Break

This year over Fall Break we stayed home and had some fun here. We went to breakfast-I love going out for breakfast- and we played and worked in the yard.

Going out for Breakfast!

Enjoying a big scone. YUM!

Paint touch up.

Harvest Time

This year we were so blessed with such a wonderful harvest from our garden. The kids loved it. They could not get enough of all of the wonderful fruits and vegetables that we grew. It was even better to them because they go to help plant, grow and pick it all. They worked hard.

Eric put a lot of work into the garden this year.

And all this hard work paid off.

Daddy's big helper.

And the kids LOVED it!
