Candle Basket Party!!

~Decorating the tree~

We got our tree on Thursday night but did not have time to decorate it so on Friday Michael's asthma was acting up & he was home from school so we decided to go & get Kamrynn out of school at one & decorate it in the afternoon. We had never done this in the middle of the day! It is always dark when we do it so we shut all the blinds & turned off the lights to make it feel "normal"! It was a lot of fun to take our time & not have to hurry. The kids had a blast!
Kamrynn & Michael

Here is my wild haired child! Here hair actually lays down nice but on this day we had it in a ponytail & she had just pulled it out so she looks crazy! I love it like this!

Isabell learning how to hang the ornaments! (and then pull them all off as fast as brother & sister can put them on!)
I love this!

Jeff & I. He is the designated "ornament hook put-er-on-er" as the kids say!


Kamrynn & I (and her enormous wad of gum!)

Looking for more to hang!

Finally all finished! Michael & Izzy hangin out lookin at the lights.

Say cheese!

Ha! Ha! I had to put this one on here! Here is Kam laying on our bed watching T.V. Now if you look real close, you can see that she is laying on something (or in this case, someone!) Yes! That is Jeff totally passed out underneath her! She was just laying there all relaxed & he really was asleep! I just thought it was too funny not to share!!

Christmas pictures

Lastnight we took the kids out to get a christmas tree. This year we really wanted to go to a tree farm and cut down our own tree but when we looked into it we couldn't find one that was open on weeknights so we ended up just going to Lowes like we usually do! It was probably better anyway because it was freezing outside!!! Hope everyone had a good Thanksgiving!
