Merry Christmas

Our church has a Christmas party every year & Santa comes in while the kids are singing its pretty cute, the Santa on the other hand this year not so cute, this picture of him with my girls is not bad but as the night went on the poor Santa starting busting out of his suit he way laying way back in the chair and his hat went flat I even heard him refer to a child as "a big girl" and he didn't mean are you to big to be sitting on Santa, I couldn't believe it. Anyway I was asked to take the pictures of the kids with Santa I have to share a couple of my favorite this one of my girls is the most beautiful of course.

And of course there is always one kid who screams (LOVE IT) this will be a memorable moment.

Meet the newest member of our family

MAX

The girls were so excited to get an early Christmas gift, little Max and I mean little came a few weeks earlier than we had planned but we are loving it (so far) and Matt is glad to finally have another male in this house besides himself, I just can't understand why???

Little Miss Daisy

I can't believe my baby is already going to be eight months old this week, she is crawling now and it is so funny because it's not your typical crawl its more of a scootch with one knee down and the other leg up like she is sitting indian style, she also got her first tooth November 26th, and I have taught her what her daddy say's NO NO NO NO! she says dadada and shaks her no, we love her so so much and are very blessed to have her.

I realize I am a little behind on updating my blog I have had a crazy busy month, so I have posted all of our fun festivities that we did in October minus the pictures of the kids in there Halloween costumes because we used Matt's camera and I have not downloaded any pictures from his camera on to my computer, so Savannah was a spider witch, Amanda was Spiderman, and Isabella was a little black cat.Getting ready to carve some pumpkins!!!

My baby girl with her messy face and her "perfect pumpkin"


Amanda a little confused on the pumpkin guts, she was stuffing every body's back into her pumpkin.

Melissa getting ready to carve!!

Savannah digging in, she wasn't wasting any time.

Every year we take our kids to the pumpkin patch in search for the "perfect pumpkin" as Amanda would say. They have so much fun, this year it seems there was a lot of "perfect" pumpkins as you can tell from the wheelbarrow full.

Savannah testing them out, I guess to see how comfy they are matters in picking the perfect pumpkin.

Amanda with her "perfect pumpkin" hers has to be small with no stem.

Little Miss Isabella along for the ride, this is her first year out so she is just getting the hang of it for next year.

OK so if you know me I LOVE HALLOWEEN its my favorite holiday and every year we spook up the yard, but it never seems like enough to me, my husband thinks I'm crazy.

This is Dead Fred, he got a body bag this year for all his dismembered parts.

Savannah's Baptism Day

My cousins and I took our girls to Gardner Village for a little witchy fun, the girls love it there, Matt and I took them last year and they could not wait to go back, they decorated witch hats, Amanda was concentrating so hard on hers she couldn't even look at me it was so cute! Then they had there faces painted and of course we rode with the witch on the hay ride, it was baby Ada's and Isabella's first year but as you can tell by Bella's face she loved it!

Savannah is getting Baptized this month and is so excited for a couple of reason the number one is that her dad will be baptizing her and number two that she is sharing her special day with her best friend Bailee they have been friends for 5 years now and are inseparable, i like to tease her mom and ask if I can claim her on our taxes.

Las Vegas

Matt & I got to fly to Vegas for a long weekend

courtesy of his work, it was so fun being with our friends,

playing and relaxing

some we haven't seen for awhile that are now living in Vegas.

We did a little gambling I won a little Matt lost a little, like always,

they took us to the the Danny Gan's show, which was so funny, and of

course my favorite part was going out to eat at T-bones it was so YUMMY!

Here we are at Danny Gan's taking car of Kevin

Jenn Danielle & Me

Did someone say CHEESE!
RELAXING BY THE TOPLESS POOL

(HAHAHAHA)

OK I'm so excited I found out tonight at a family party that I am going to be a great aunt, my niece is 2 months along and I am so happy for her and her husband I'm still smiling, they are going to be awesome parents. Not to mention all of my neices and nephews on Matts side of the family are older so now my kids will have someone to play with, the only thing is that great aunt sounds so old when I think of great aunts I think of my grandmas sisters (OLD LADIES WHO KNOW MORE THAN THEY REALLY DO) :)

Through the eyes of my child

Her favorite picture, she thought this was so cute

.

This is Gabby the favorite baby doll.

My daughter got a hold of one of my cameras and took 165 pictures, so if you have ever wondered what life looks like through the eyes of someone 3 feet tall here it is

I especially like this one of Emilee with her I'm a model face

AHAHH!!!! NOT AGAIN

She took this one of herself (not bad!)

Amanda started preschool last week, and I am proud to say I am the only one who cried.

The girls both went to Mrs. Wendy for preschhol, Savannah is so excited to get to go be a teachers helper in Amandas class when she goes off track.
