An evening with Santa and Disney on Ice

A couple weeks ago we took the kids to see Disney on Ice - Brayden's favorite part was the Halloween celebration (he's come a long way!) - Brianna was in heaven the whole time (she loved all the princesses!) Little princess (eating a sucker) with her daddy!

Me with my handsome momma's boy:) If you look closely you can see he is missing a tooth! He has several more that are loose!

At South Creek they hosted an evening with Santa. Unfortunately, I was at work, but Gary took the kids.

Getting ready for Christmas!

One night we decided to take a quick family picture to give to a few people (I'm not very good about Christmas cards). As you can see we're not really dressed for a picture - but everyone was looking and smiling! The kids were so cute with Santa this year! I think this is the first year I didn't have to walk over with Brianna! Brayden wants a Spongebob snowcone machine and a zero gravity remote control car... Brianna wants the Disney Princess Castle and make your own jewelry...

After decorating the house for Christmas - the kids got into a pretty typical pose:) I'm so glad they like each other (although the times that they argue are increasing).

As I get out our Precious Moments Nativity Scene - I'm teaching Brianna all about it! Gotta love the look on her face!

This year we made a Gingerbread village! This set was really cute - has 5 different houses/buildings to decorate! Of course Brianna did a lot of chewing!

A little behind!!! Thanksgiving 2009

For Thanksgiving this year we went to Lukas and Jodie's house in Zionsville with Gary's family! We had a good time - the kids are having more and more fun playing together as they get older.
Here's a picture of Landon - he was sleeping during the picture we took of all the kids: Here's a picture of the rest of the kids - Sam, Brianna, Brayden, Grace, Grant, and Logan:

Brayden once again got the smaller half of the wishbone - we're gonna have to work on strategy for next year!

Our contribution to the meal this year was fruit - so we decided to jazz it up and bring a fruit turkey:)

Here are the kids doing "The first Thanksgiving play" at our house! We frequently get a show after I come home from work!
