Christmas Woes

Yesterday when I picked Ashlee up from school...there was a sign posted about pink eye and that the children had been exposed to it...sure enough after getting home she was showing some signs so I took her in just to make sure.

So...as many of you already know...Ashlee and Gavin both have it...grrrr...Gavin seems to be doing better...and will take the eye drops just fine. His sister seems to be getting worse already and not wanting to do the eye drops.

Here is a picture of our little pink eye girl after I got her eye pried open and cleaned up (poor sweetheart)...I hope she gets better soon.

Christmas Traditions

Last year we started a new family Christmas tradition that the kids really love. One night during December we make reindeer sandwiches and Christmas trees for dinner…last night was the night that we did this.
We also watched the original Rudolph the red nosed reindeer show…the kids had a blast!
Here are a few photos!

Fun @ the Patch

Well this year we tried out a different pumpkin patch...there were things that we enjoyed and things that we missed about our "ol faithful patch" but we wanted to try something new and we are glad we did!

Here are a few photos of us at the patch!

Well I guess I never really got those pictures at the patch posted...opps! I will get to those next...but I was thinking I needed to share these pictures of the kids at halloween!

We hope you all are doing great! and had a nice Halloween! Can you believe that we are already heading towards Thanksgiving! Totally Crazy!

Just some pictures....






Well...this family blog...

Is really not getting the attention it needs :) RLOL....Everyone needs to give Chad a hard time :)

Ok...so let's play catch up shall we :)

The kids are all back in school....doing well and I and Gavin are getting adjusted to not having them around all the time. We spend a lot of our time helping the schools...mainly Jackson's school...doing busy work for the teachers that Gavin and I can do without interrupting the class.

I am "Room Mom" again of course, have a battle of the books team, member of the school association, copy cats (we make copies for the teachers) and so far that is about it :) I love doing things at the school...I can peek in on Jackson and I have a reason to be there so he can't say I am spying ....RLOL!

Jackson started Cub Scouts and is loving it! It looks like I get to sew his badges on his shirt...this should be interesting....I have a week to get it done...think I can swing it?

Ashlee is busy with dance and is really getting into the groove of all of her other activities! She is really getting older all of a sudden and a lot more independent.

Gavin...is the baby...forever baby...poor boy! and we love spending time together, just us! But he is getting more independent himself. He is talking up a storm...and has the deepest little voice! Did I mention he is just way to cute?

This last weekend we took the kids bowling and they had a great time! Esp. Gavin...he just loved it! Both Chad and I were totally worn out by the end of the game...but we had a blast!

I think this weekend we will take the kids to Anderson Farms and do the whole pumpkin patch thing :)

Well that about sums it up for now...hopefully next post will be from Chad :)

It's official!

We have a family blog! Chad has been wanting a way to keep up with family and friends on the net...sharing our family with them...with busy schedules...we figured a blog is the best way to share our life with you all!

Here are a few family pictures that we took a few weeks ago...






Life has been busy! but also great! Chad was gone on a business trip this last week...leaving me alone with the 3 kids...what is normally a busy week for me...was an extra busy week (without help!) We are all thankful to have him home with us!

While Chad was a way...he surprised me with a dozen red long stem roses and choc. delivered! It was super fun to get a delivery!

This week (Monday) Chad and I will celebrate 10-years of marriage...it seems crazy to think we have been married for that long...it seems like yesterday that we started on this journey together...but yet it was 10 years ago!!!:)
