The Most Wonderful Time of the Year

 

The last couple of weeks have been so much fun.  I finished my Christmas shopping before Thanksgiving so I have had time to enjoy this month. 
 




We went to North Pole City for Santa pictures.  It is such a beautiful store...if I win the lottery tonight my tree will have lots of things from there hanging on it.  Easton was grumpy when we went and woke up from his nap with a fever.  Addi said she wanted a microphone and Easton said he wanted a pink bike.  I will let you guess which one is getting their Christmas wish.
 



 
A couple of weekends ago, it snowed a little but it was really icy outside.  We rarely have a day that we do not go somewhere.  We always go the gym or library or zoo so it was so nice to be at home for a couple of days.  We took it easy we were lazy and we went to see Frozen.  It was so bitter cold that weekend.  This week has been beautiful in the 60's so tomorrow, a week before Christmas, is a zoo day. 
We went to see Mrs. Clause and Christmas lights with Janie and Brian, we have watched Christmas movies, made homemade hot chocolate.  Addi and Easton have been so much fun this year.

Halloween-Thanksgiving

Last catch up post...Halloween-Thanksgiving
Addi was Ariel 
 
Easton was a fisherman

 
They were fun this year we went to several Halloween carnivals so by the time Halloween actually got here they were not so excited about wearing the costumes.  They looked so cute going to each house.  

 
Justin was at the station this year so we hung out at home until after naps then went to the station.  We had a lot a lot a lot of food!  I don't like that Justin has to work some holidays but it is so much fun to go to the fire station and be with everyone.  We just show up and eat the firemen cook and clean up.  This year they weren't even called out while we were there.  So many things to be thankful for this year!

Pumpkin Patch




 
 
Fall is my favorite time of year.  I love the colors the smells and I love Halloween.  This year we went to the myriad gardens for their pumpkin patch and it was my favorite one we have visited so far.  It was beautiful, I would have liked to have gone back for a day to myself and just look.
