Happy New Year

Happy New Year 2009!!!

Merry Christmas!

We are still trying to get last minute holiday plans done. It feels like I have been baking cookies for weeks! I am very thankful to have today off! I have a ton of stuff to do! Jacob is still at his grandma's house and didn't want to come home last night because they where going to roast marshmellows. So Isabelle is about to go to "school" for a few hours so I can get some work done, mommy's little "helper" is a pretty big mess maker, and a bit spoiled too! So here are some of our pics from the Christmas photo shoot the kids did a few weekends ago..mommy, daddy and Bradon are MIA....daddy was in France, Brandon was working I think, and it was all mommy could do to get the kids bathed, dressed and out the door!!

Stay tuned for the next update! Merry Christmas!!

Car Show

We loaded up and went to the car show today. It was Jacob's first time he was so excited to go! He kept running around yelling "Look at that hot rod daddy!" He was so excited and wanted to take pictures of all the hot rods. I will spare you a look at any of those photos, let's just say he didn't wait long enough for the picture to take before he was moving the camera, and with all the lights there are some quite interesting photos! He did get to meet Venom and Wolfe from American Gladiators. He thought that was really "sweet"!!

He wanted to take a picture with Isabelle.....

Happy Halloween!

Tonight we celebrated our first "holiday" in our new home. Jacob has been looking forward to trick-or-treating for a few months now, and he was so excited to get ready. Our neighbors organized a block party/meet your neighbors party. We had a really good time! All the kids (about 15) went door to door as a group to collect their candy! Jacob came home with a bag full, even considering that there is still not very many houses in the neighborhood yet! I must say I was pretty bad about taking pictures (I need to work on that!)


I got a group pic of all the kiddos in the costumes, a few of Jacob, and none of Isabelle until she finally fell asleep in the stroller!!

All moved in....

and ALOT of catching up to do!! It feels great to have a home again! We still have boxes every where but at least all of our belongings are under 1 roof, and not in storage!

I am hoping to do alot of "catch-up" posts soon (in between all the un-packing!)

So those of you who don't know we built our new home in The Falls at Imperial Oaks with David Weekley. We had a great experience with our builder and really love how our home turned out.

Here are a few random shots inside taken about a week or 2 before we closed..
