Celebration of Lights

Last night we went on a 3 mile drive through the park at Hartwood Acres and the Celebration of Lights. It was really neat. The kids both loved it and even thanked us for taking them when we tucked them in at bedtime!

Snow Day

Boogie Man

This evening I was tickling Carson on my lap upside-down, which gave me a good view right up his nose! I jokingly asked him, "What's that boogie doing up there?" He replied, "He's in his home with all his friends!" Yummy thought!

Some Recent Pictures

These are pictures I took of the kids when we were trying to get one for Christmas cards last week. Why is it so hard to get just one good picture? Camryn took the one of Carson and me.

A Sick Boy

Carson was up all night last night with a stomach bug. This morning his stomach was growling and he said, "Mommy, my tummy just snored!"

Sharing a Loving Moment

Whew! I have been waiting for this moment for quite some time. Before Dick and Diane were out, Camryn and Carson were fighting every minute they were together. I swear they've added at least 10 new wrinkles and 25 new gray hairs to my head! Just after baths the other night, I captured this moment!

We Are Thankful For...

We're thankful for grandparents that come to give Mommy a break!! It was so nice to have Dick and Diane here for 6 days! Not many daughters-in-law can say that about their in-laws. But I truly mean it! Having them both here to entertain the kids, get odds and ends done around the house, and have a friend to go shopping with was almost as good as a tropical vacation!

We had such a great Thanksgiving week. Uncle Nick and (The Future Aunt) Anna were here for a couple of days the weekend before. Carson was infatuated with Anna! On the way to take Nick and her to the airport, he requested Anna sit by him. He didn't take his eyes off of her for the whole 20 minute trip! At one point he looked up at her and said, "I like your hair. I want to touch it!" She has curls that do beg to be touched, but I'm not sure boys are supposed to say things like that! Yesterday we saw an airplane up in the sky. Carson watched it for awhile and then asked, "Anna in that airplane?" Oh, and when I commented that our house was a disaster, Carson decided, "We go live at Anna's house!" Today when we were Skyping with Ty and Mandy, he would yell for Aunt Mandy every time she left the camera's view! Watch out Tyson and Nick! You have some tough competition!
