Christmastime is Here...

Well, the Thanksgiving feast is over *tear* and Christmastime is upon us, although it doesn't really feel like it when there is no snow and sunny weather! Today we went out and found a live Christmas tree with our friends Leon, Erica, Lucas, Hanah, Steve, and Connie. Although I am opposed to almost everything that occurs outdoors, I actually had a lot of fun. I convinced Rob that it was important that we bring the four-wheeler, so that I could go ahead and scout out beautiful trees. Mostly I just wanted to ride around and not have to walk as much! It turns out that it came in handy when it came time to haul the trees to the trucks! Unfortunately, I forgot the camera and do not have any pictures to share, but I will take one of the tree when we get it all decorated :o) All in all, it was a fun time with family and friends, and what can I say, we might have to do it again!

Halloween Cuties!

Ahhh Halloween, the only day of the year when it's acceptable to dress your children up in scary costumes, parade them around town until all hours of the night, and feed them sugary treats until they pass out! Does it get any better than that? I am also thoroughly convinced that Halloween is the brainchild of greedy dentists, who we will inevitable be visiting in less than a month for our cavity infested teeth. All that being said, don't my kids look adorable in their costumes? :o) Rosanna and Layla had a blast running around the neighborhood with their cousins Ally and Jerrica, and were able to collect quite an impressive amount of candy!
