Pretty Sure~

Spencer took this picture of me!!
Not a bad job!

Spencer likes wearing everyone elses socks but his own. As we were decorating for Christmas he took two of the stockings and thought it was so cool that he put them on his feet!! He's such a silly boy and definitely keeps us on our toes and keeps us smiling, most of the time!

Trimming the tree!!

I decided this year since we were going to be home for the holidays that we should decorate the house up more than we did last year. Sariah was in charge of getting all the Christmas stuff out and she even took it upon herself to set up the Santa tree downstairs. We set up multiple trees for the holiday season. I have my own tree upstairs that has snowflakes and snowmen on it. All of the upstairs decor consists of that. The downstairs on the other hand consists of Santa. The kids have their own tree which has been filled up over the years with ornaments that we buy them every year along with the ornaments that Grammy and Papa get them every year! The tree looks cute! The downstairs looks cute, The only part of the whole Christmas decorating that I don't enjoy is taking it all down when it's over. Which is happening tomorrow hopefully! Here's the kids trimming their tree!!

A little bit of Summer in Winter

We went and checked out the aquatic park a few weeks ago...the kids (and Shule and I) had a blast. We went down waterslides, rode the waves in the wave pool and had a fun time!!! We made Spencer wear his built in life jacket swim suit and he wasn't having much fun. So about half way through we switched his suit and the true Spencer came out. He was swimmin away, going under the water!! He had a great time, none of the kids wanted to leave, unfortunatley Dad and Mom were tired. Shule ended up with a sinus infection afterwards, connection or not???

Tis the Season

Tonight we went to Caylie's school for her first choir concert of the year. This year they have a new teacher and he did an awesome job. It was such a nice change from the last choir teacher. Caylie had a solo with some other classmates and they did an awesome job. It sucks that my cellphone doesn't have a video option or a zoom so they aren't the closest that it could be so I opted for just taking some still shots of the girl!!

Thanksgiving!

Thanksgiving was great this year. All of the family was able to get together and hangout for the afternoon and evening. We at dinner around 2 and then pulloed evreything out again at 6. We spent lots of time just relaxing and hanging out an all the cousins had a fun time playing together! After we brough out the food the 2nd time it took Spencer less than 5 minutes to fall asleep. Kari went to go get her a plate of food and she found Spencer asleep standing up leaning over the chair . We left him there for 5 or so minutes while we finished our food and then went and moved him from th chair! He didn't even realize that we had moved him! He played soo hard that night that he just crashed! We had a fun fun night and ate some delicious grub and delicious pies! Can't wait till next year!!

A Little...

Packed up the kids and surprised them with a Staycation this week. We didn't tell them where we were going, just what they needed to pack, and headed southwest. We didn't go far, we made it to Grammy and Papa's house in Clackamas, a mere 20 minutes away! But we have been having fun!! Shule and I have got to spend some time with Mom and Dad for dinner and drinks! It's been fun! We've gone out to dinner, gone shopping, gone to lunch. All fun stuff. We've traded beds, made the house a mess, cleaned up, watched movies, ate junk, and tomorrow we get to enjoy Thanksgiving as a family all together. We've had a great time. Thanks Grammy and Papa for inviting us over for a fun week!!
