Just around the house...





Let it snow, let it snow, please let it snow...

At 6:30 this morning I excitedly took a peek out the window hoping to be surprised with a blanket of white, beautiful snow- no go! I was sad, but thought, oh well! Then, 7:30 rolled around and it started to snow, and snow and snow! It has now snowed about 4 plus inches and we hear that we are getting about 2-4 more over the afternoon and evening. We took full advantage of the beautiful snow and have already sledded, followed Henry around the neighborhood is his monster jeep and even made a couple of snow balls. It's wonderful and we've been enjoying it all! Saylor wasn't sure what to think, but mostly I think she enjoyed herself. This is what Christmas is all about...

Monster Henry, oops, I mean monster truck...

So, Henry got his Christmas present early. Don't ask us what we were thinking! The truth is that Henry LOVES his present. He even wants to go to the garage just to "touch it" he says. It's the first thing mentioned in the morning... "Ride my jeep, Mom?" he says. It's been great leverage for getting Henry to shape up and listen to commands quickly. I know, I should keep it a secret, but we all know that the way to a child's heart is bribery and candy, right? KIDDING. We promise to raise Henry and Saylor with great morals, manners and respect for all man kind. Scouts honor! This is a new generation...

A very merry year...

Christmas tree hunting at it's best! If I didn't have another present given to me this whole season, I would be happy... I GOT A FAMILY PHOTO and that is enough to make my year! Okay, I know it's not professionally taken and you can barely see Saylor, but it's the four of us, all looking in the same direction. This is the farm that we get our pumpkins and xmas trees from each year. Henry loves it and gets as dirty and wet as he possibly can. I have video to load soon of his great mud-puddle excursion. Until then, enjoy.

I'm 30, it's the new 20...

Well, I did it... I turned 30 and it only took me one day to recover! My husband threw me a beautiful party with almost all of my friends in attendance. I would say that karaoke, dancing, laughing, photos and drinking about sum up the night. It was great fun and I send a huge hug and kiss out to my love. Henry obviously enjoyed the attention from the ladies. I was so lucky to have my mom, sister, Melissa and Amy and her mother travel to my party. Thanks ladies for making my day so wonderful. I love you all!!!!!!! I am adding a few photos of my in-laws as well... they are a huge part of our lives and were such a wonderful help at my party! Thanks so much!!!
