Kistmas Lights....As Brax says it!!!

A hard Days work.....

"Here ya go Dad, here is the kistmas lights!!!"

Baxton is surveying the situation about to tell

Jer just what to do and how to do it!!

Daddy's little helper...

This was our Saturday. We had so much fun as a family putting the lights on the house.

Everyone helped in some way and I even managed to get a great pic of Duches & Brax in his wagon. Makes for a perfect day!!

Oh Christmas tree.....

Christmas is our families favorite time of the year.

Jeremy would seriously put decorations up & get a tree in July

if there were trees to be bought.

Needless to say, when the time finally comes, it's like having two kids in a candy store!!!

I love it!!!!

We went to a small Christmas tree patch to find the perfect tree.

It was so cute as Brax & Jer were truly on the prowl for the perfect one.

As you can see they found a good tree & could not get away from it!!!

Me & and my favorite little boy in the whole wide world!!!

Brax could not wait to get the tree home so he could put his new Toy Story, Cars, & Charlie Brown ornaments on the tree. He was so excited, that was all he talked about on our way home and we had to literally move him out of the way as Jer & I put the lights on!

Brax doing whatever it takes to get his ornaments in just the right place.

He was so much fun to watch this year and it was such a joy to have him participate in the nights activities. He is a real treasure to us!!!

The finished product......

The Glaze Family Christmas tree.

Post Thanksgiving in Sky Valley

Ok, so as usual we spend the weekend after turkey day with the Glaze family in Sky Valley and as always it was such a treat this year!! As the years pass & the kids get older we discover new things to do and the memories get better & better!!!

Two boys, everything is two boys to Braxton

Here are two of the cutest boys you will ever meet!

Will & Brax resting in the living room floor while watching football like their dads!

Brax had to take his shirt off so he would be just like Will....

To cute!!!

Here is the new big thing...... The DUMP.

Braxton loves Garbage trucks, I have no idea why but it is what it is.

Sky Valley has a neighborhood dump that we had to visit 2 times in one day.

Goodness Brax!!

As you can see he is also all about taking the trash to the Dump so the Garbage truck can come get it. I guess its never to early to make a boy take out the trash!!!!

Here we are feeding the geese while we freeze our booties off!

This is another thing that Brax loves to do even if it is 20 degrees outside.

The geese will fight each other for the bread and Brax absolutely cracks up when this

takes place. He screams "AHHHH.... Look!" then laughs uncontrollably!!!

All bundled up and ready to go feed the geese!

Sky Valley Waterfall

Our God is Great

Just look at some of His beauty!!!

Every time we go to Sky Valley now we must got to the waterfall and go on a hike

as Braxton Loves to throw rocks into the water and climb the big rocks!! It makes for a great couple of hours especially when its nice enough to have a picnic at the base of the falls!!

Here you so see Brax throwing rocks while Carly sits ever so enthusiastically thinking

When on earth are we going back to the house, its cold people!!!

Just look at that happy face!!

I am telling you he's a addicted to rock throwing!!!

Black Friday.....

SHOPPING, SHOPPING, & more SHOPPING!!!!!

Just how many stores can we get to

& what all can we buy!?!?

Every year since I can remember I have went shopping on Black Friday.

It is a tradition for my mom & I to get out at the wee hours of the morning to hustle & bustle around town just buying up tons of stuff!!

IT'S FUN and I LOVE IT!!!

For the past two years Carly, my niece, has joined us which hasadded to the excitement!

She is 14 & loves to shop. Really she just likes to hang with me & mom!!

We really love her being with us too!!

As you can see we did a pretty good job at buying things.

We completely filled my trunk & back seat with goodies.

We hit the road at 5:30 am & finished shopping around 1:30,

which makes us CRAZY in most peoples eyes!

I think why I love this so much is the fact it is a tradition & it's something that only mom & I and now Carly do. It's like our special time together and I will always cherish this.

We always know the question of the day on Thanksgiving is:

what time & where are we meeting......

Happy Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving started off with a feast at school this year. It was so cute!!

The feast was held in the gym so we could have lunch with other classes. The kids got to march to the gym all dressed up in their festive ware, T-shirts, hats & necklaces. It was so cool to be in the gym and have the kids walk in to see mom & dad, their faces just light up and they come at you full speed ahead. I love it!!!!

Here is the place mat that Brax made, how cute!!

Needless to say it was Fridge decor once we got home!!

Brax table!!

Braxton & Wyatt, they're best buds!!!

Get a look at their eyes, I have no idea what they were telling me but

guessing by their looks it was pretty serious!!!!

Need some Juice, mom!!!

One little pilgrim looking at me....

Just as cute as he can be!!!!

It was a great way to begin the season of eating!!!

There was a nice spread for all the kids and parents to enjoy.

Mrs. Kathy & Mrs. Robbie (Braxton's Teachers) did a fabulous job with all the children shirts & hats along with the necklaces that were made for the parents!

I am very thankful for the both of them and how they love my little man!!

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!

Wyatt's birthday Party!!

Wyatt is one of Braxton's class mates and probably his best friend!

Brax always talks about Wyatt and come to find out Wyatt does the same!

When we met Wyatt's dad, the first thing out of Bob's mouth was

so this is Braxton, we hear a lot about him!

Wyatt turned three in the beginning of October and we

celebrated with him, his parents, & some of his other friends!

They did a really great job with a dinosaur themed party and lots of fun games!!

Here are three REALLY cute boys!!!

This was the after-party crew.

Braxton, Wyatt and Will

Wyatt doing his best to brake that dinosaur,

while being cheered on his brother & friends

Ugghhh, take that dinosaur!!

Brax really liked the party favors!

On the way home I heard ROOOAARRRR!

and I looked back and found my dinosaur!!
