Deck the Halls....

We ended up getting an enormous tree. It took Craig about 2 seconds to find it which was great. It looks fabulours in our living room. The boys were sooooo excited to help Craig put the lights on.

Craig remained very patient and calm as the three big boys "helped" him untangle the lights. (always a fun project) The boys were thrilled as their handy work began to take shape.

Here we are with the lights on!

Guest photographer Jackson took this picture. He was very proud of his skills. Connor took a stab at some pics too...his were a little too fuzzy. We'll try again next time!

The Holiday Season

We had a great Thanksgiving with lots and lots to be thankful for...not the least of which was the great food.

We also celebrated Jackson's birthday too. He's got the energizer birthday..it keeps going and going and going....


Here they are with Aunt Lynn (Uncle Dwight got an early start on hunting season:))

After Thanksgiving we made a long overdue stop at the Mennonite Home to visit Craig's grandfather....or as we explained to the boys - Daddy's PopPop. It was great to get to see Grandpa and Norma.

Up next, our annual trek to get a Christmas tree. We didn't make it Black Friday because it was a little too cold for the little ones....but we did head out on Monday.

Grandma took this great picture. We'll surely add it to our collection of Christmas tree pics. Its one of my favorites...maybe because everyone is looking at the camera! Ha! The simple pleasures!!!
