Christmas time....

What a great Christmas! Thoroughly exhausting, but fun! We are still opening things and playing with them!
I have lots of pics but here is a fav from Christmas eve! Could we be possibly be getting to the age of all three kids looking at the camera?? Who Hoo!

Puppy love...

yeah... we got a puppy.... it all started on Black Friday when Hugh said to me.."You know how you always say we're not spontaneous people? Let's be spontaneous and get a puppy today!" WHAT? In his defense he has been looking at them for over a month.. and I told him next summer... yeah, look who won that one! Anyway, we have now added a 3 month old Yellow Lab named Sawyer. He is really sweet, follows us in every room (any room with a door is kept closed to hopefully limit the area of accidents) but he will sit right outside the door!!! He's very cute. He's also BIG.. I think he will be a big one.. he goes to the Vet tomorrow, so not sure how much he will weigh. The kids have been GREAT with him, playing etc. Now I just have to get them to clean up after him....:) Welcome to this crazy family Sawyer!

Here and there..

Nothing much to post except, we have one kid with a double ear infection, one who had a fever this morning, and all with runny noses and coughs! (including myself!) Tis' the season I guess! Tired of it!! We did do an overnight in Lancaster, (a few pics from below are from there) was fun but always work! Thankful though to get away and not cook/clean! Looking forward to the holidays!!!

Candy time!!!

Brayden's school had Trunk Or Treat last night and we had fun!! My little pirate, mouse and Alvin (from the chipmunks!) and their buddies had a great time and got lots of loot. Brayden was the only one who was a bit confused when he went back in his candy bag today and the Reeces Peanut Butter cups were missing... huh? Strange. :) We'll head out w/ Ava and Landyn tomorrow night for a night of Spider Web Pizza, Mummie Hotdogs and Monster brownies!!! (and hopefully a few more peanut butter cups!)

Fall Fun...

We are loving Fall in our house! I love love love baking Pumpkin Chocolate Chip cookies and pumpkin Bread and all that yummy fall stuff. ( a little too much!) I love the beautiful leaves changing colors , the leave piles and the nice weather! We have been having a blast!
We spent last Sunday afternoon at Washington Crossing... fun times!








Hanging at the park riding bikes!


Apple Picking...

Her new bike (garage sale...$5 !!! Cant' beat it! She LOVES it!!! And she FLIES on it!

Life around here...

Having three kids, there is really never a dull moment.. honestly probably having 1 kid there is never a dull moment...
Sweet man Gav sporting his new bike helmet!!

Not really sure... why my 3 year old has no clothing on...

Ava and Morgan visiting Nana in the nursing home..

This a typical night at my dinner table... notice the attire...

Soccer

Brayden started soccer last weekend and has been loving it. He played T-ball a few years ago and he was bored out of his mind... so playing a sport where he is on the move constantly is right up his alley! He's having a blast!
