Christmas Time is Here.....

Well, all of Paul's hard work has finally paid off. Tonight was the night he lit up the house. I am so proud of him and the beautiful job he did on the house, along with lots of help from Reagan. The pictures do not do it justice.....so come on by and see them for yourself! :)





















Reagan's Thanksgiving Day at School

Reagan has been learning about Native Americans all month and studying the meanings behind the first Thanksgiving. To end their unit, they had a sharing feast. Here are some pictures of my Indian princess...

It's Beginning To Look Alot Like Christmas....




Let the annual house decorating begin. It usually takes about three weekends for Paul and I to get the almost 10,000 lights up around our house. We love doing it and the whole family joins in with the kids helping put lights on the bushes. However, the weather is not cooperating with us this year, so we are behind. Hopefully, we will catch up before the annual lighting at Thanksgiving. Here are Paul's plans that he has made up for our house.....I just love being married to a nerd. They do rule the world right???



Paul's least favorite part....standing atop a 28 ft ladder and still reaching with a pole to put icicle lights up at the peak of the house





Stay tuned......the next update should be with the finished results.....

Dad's Day

Both kids had Dad's Day recently at their schools. This is a special time for both, since they get to have their dad come in and play and meet their friends and eat. It was so much fun.









Random Dress Up Days

We tend to have these random days where the kids just won't get out of their dress up clothes. Ryan is really into Star Wars and loves his new Clone Trooper costume. And for some unknown reason, Riley has fallen in love with Ryan's old Buzz Lightyear costume. Pretty darn cute!
