Thanksgiving

The guys watching football.

We spent Thanksgiving with my parents. It was nice, quiet and slower paced because we got to be the only house guests for the day. Great food and the kids enjoyed their time with Grandma and Grandpa. Thanks Mom and Dad.

It's Beginning to Look a lot Like Christmas!

For those of you who haven't seen my house, our living room is the size of both stories. It has a loft looking over into it, but needless to say it is a very large room. Our previous 6 ft. pencil tree looked sadly pitiful in our new house. So this year we invested in a beautiful 9 ft. full Christmas tree. I LOVE IT! Thanks babe for indulging me with new decorations too.

"A" You're Adorable!

Lily's Blessing

Our Pretty Princess.

Grandma's girl.

Grandma Faye Ball and her little Lily Faye. We named Lily after my Grandmother because she is one of the kindest and sweetest women I know. I hope Lily will always know what a honor it is to carry my Grandmother's name.

Four generations of women. My mother's mother, my mother, me and my daughter.

Our Angels!

Uncle Jackson (holding Ty), "Uncle" Joey, Bishop Carlson, Uncle Matt, Uncle Elvin

Our Family.

Daddy's girl.

We had a great morning Saturday blessing Lily. We did it at home which was really nice and relaxing. I wish all of my favorite people could have been there, but we had almost everyone that lives locally. We took a ton of pictures so I just posted a few of my favorites.

All Hallows Eve

Princess Leia, R2D2, Yoda, Han Solo frozen in carbonite and Darth Vadar.

What a crazy day on Saturday. But a lot of fun. We got a lot of comments on our costumes. I love the theme idea. As long as our kids are willing to be seen with us and coordinate I am all about that. One year I am sure we will no longer be cool enough to hang with. But, this year at least Luke LOVED IT!

Thriller!

Brenda and Robbie-Knight and Lady in Waiting

Nate and Becca-Zombie Bride and Groom.

Annie and Matthew-Nurse and Doctor.

Me and Jake-Han Solo frozen in carbonite and Princess Leia

Joey and Sarah-The woodcutter and Little Red Riding Hood

We had a really great time at our friends Halloween party Friday night. No kids and lots of fun and laughter, dancing, games. Jake and his hilarious friends busted out into the thriller dance (Sarah send me that picture). So fun and a much needed night out without the kids.

Pumpkins

Our annual homage to the cougs. Even if their season was not what we were hoping for.

Batman and Luke's design.
