Our Christmas Card

It sure is interesting trying to get a picture of all of us actually looking at the camera let alone smiling! We did a mini photo shoot on Thanksgiving. Big thanks to Uncle Michael for being the photographer!! Here's our pic that made the cut for our cards this year!

Christmas Tree time!

They make pretty cute ornaments!

Growing faster than ever!

Our sweet kids!

We headed to Bourdet's Christmas tree farm in Hollister for a flocked tree. Our friends, Dustin & Rita, came with us to get their tree as well, so we headed home with 2 trees in the back of our truck. Caden fell running through the rows of trees so was pretty grumpy for most of the tree search.

Dentist Round 2

Caden went in for his 2nd dental check-up. We skipped the x-rays this time since they were a nightmare last time. He did really well with his cleaning and even let the hygenist floss his 20 teeth! Good news: No cavaties!! Now, we just have to stay on top of that flossing action at home ; )

Holiday Time!

The Holidays have arrived!! Halloween has come and gone...Leaves are falling, cool air is blowing, closets have been rotated...Whew, this year sure has flown by...we're already well into November!! Thanksgiving is next week!! Time for turkey and all the fixings. Love, love, love this time of year ~ Family time, special traditions, creating new traditions, and making memories!!

Next will be Christmas time...I'm already feeling the pinch to get shopping done and to find or take that perfect picture for our Holiday cards. I LOVE receiving cards from my family and friends. It's so cool to see how everyone's kids have grown over the year. I keep all the photo cards up all year long and switch them out when I get new cards each year.

This year, I plan to use Shutterfly to create a great Holiday card for our family and friends. Shutterfly is a great website for uploading and ordering photo prints, gifts for Christmas and creating a fabulous Christmas card!

Here are just a few that caught my eye right away:

Madison is ONE!

Our little girl turned ONE! Auntie Kristin came up to celebrate with us and have cupcakes. Just amazing how fast this year flew by. She's lost all her "baby" and now is really a mini toddler!
