2nd Birthday Festivities

We decided to kick off the festivities at the England's cabin during our friend getaway. It was a wonderful weekend full of fun... and frosting. We love you guys!

Spoiled Rotten... Thank you grandmas, grandpas, great grandmas, great grandpas, aunts, and uncles.   I love that you love this little girl as much as we do.

Noelle's turns 2... turned 2.

Happy 2nd Birthday Noelle! My how you have grown!

Giving Thanks

This year I put on my first Thanksgiving. My wonderful parents, 2 sisters and their husbands came down for the feast. We cooked all day. My dad smoked the turkey... amazing! Before we knew it we were ready to eat. Yummm. I have to be honest it just isn't as good as when someone else cooks it... especially my mom.  My cousins Brittany and Allan with his 2 boys. It was so wonderful to be surrounded by family. We ate and then played... rc cars, scooter ride, 4 wheeler rides, jumping on the tramp, campfires, rockband, shooting range. Oh yeah we did it all. My family knows how to work hard and play hard. Here are the pictures to prove it. 

Winter Begins

We went to a cabin with some old and new friends. It was a perfect weekend of snuggling by the fire and playing in the snow... L.O.V.E. it.

Noelle just found out that you can eat snow... yep and that is about all she did during her outside visit

The Boys

Treat or Treat... peeez

This was our first year trick or treating as parents. I don't know you was more excited The Queen of Hearts or her parents.

 We started down our street. Noelle seemed like she had done this before. Let's be honest she had lots of practice in asking for candy from random people, but the door to door thing was a breeze. Mom was worn out before she was. Chris was so darling walking hand in hand with her. He offered to carry her or her candy bag, but she would have nothing of it, no matter how heavy her bag got. 

Our little zombie buddies joined us for the festivities.
