Let It Snow Baby!!!

So far everyone I have talked to in my circle of friends does not want the snow to hit. I must be the odd ball because I absolutely and positively LOVE the SNOW!!!!! It finally started in last night while we all slept. We woke up to about 4 inches, and it's still coming down like crazy. Chris took the kids out into it today. Even Grace had a blast! I made them hot cocoa after. There is something about snow that makes the holidays that much more wonderful!!

It's The Most Wonderful Time Of The Year!

Okay, so yesterday we all loaded up in the SUV to get our Christmas tree. We usually allow the kids to mainly choose our tree, but this year I found this one, and absolutely loved it. They on the other hand hated it. They thought it was too small. HELLO! It looks pretty large to me! I think the Forrest setting gave them the idea it was small. Anyway, that is why Halee doesn't appear very enthusiastic in this first picture. In the end however, especially after seeing how large it truly was once we got it home, they ALL fell in love with our tree.

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!! I LOVE this time of year!!!!!!

I'm Pregnant!

I already sent out emails and posted on face book, but just in case I missed anyone, we are happily expecting another baby in June!!!! I have basically been sick as usual, but honestly...sicker than usual. I am surviving though, especially knowing this is our last. Only a few more weeks of yuckiness I hope! I'm honestly trying to enjoy every moment even though it hasn't been easy. Knowing it's my last is bitter sweet, but I know and feel it is right. Bring on this last baby! :) :) :)

This Is What Happens...

when your husband is in charge...uh, MY husband that is. I made cupcakes for FHE Monday and left for a quick minute and came back to Grace eating straight from the frosting. His excuse??? She just wanted it. She better be happy that she is Daddy's little girl...because she has him wrapped right around her little finger. :)

I Really DO Love them....

A very common occurrence in our household seems to be our kids arguing and fighting over the silliest of things. In moments like these however, I am literally racing for the camera because these moments remind me that it is all worth it.

My Flying Child....

Just wanted to share this funny picture. We had the jump rope out the other day and Connor snuck into the camera and happened to catch Austin flying through the air. Austin was pretty proud of this picture!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Carving Pumpkins, and Halloween...

These are in backward order (sorry!) The kids had so much fun dressing up this year. Halee was a gypsy, Austin a cowboy, Connor Dracula, Christian *Dash* from Incredibles, and Grace our cute little Monkey. I love Halloween!!! I'll be glad when the candy runs short though....

This Halloween was especially nice because it was warm compared to past ones!!!

Here a few pics from Carving Pumpkins...I always love this. Chris is the carver... mostly because I can't handle the mess, but the kids LOVE helping.
