Snow!!!

A week ago we got our first snow storm, it was lots of fun! We woke up and Russell was ready! He asks almost every day if it is going to snow again, he was quite sad when it all melted.


We got our Christmas tree up, and well the kids love it!


Thanksgiving dinner was fun, I think that Autumn enjoyed it as much as the rest of us did!

Russell was a bit cheese, but enjoyed his meal as well.

TURKEYS!!!

We have been busy having fun with holiday stuff and we still have Christmas coming! I am so excited!
We made this army of turkeys this week and then shared them with some friends. And of course we had to make sure that they were going to taste good!









We went for a hike a weekend or two ago, just a quick short one, and we got this stick and made it a fishing pole, and Russell LOVES it! Chad cut out some cardboard fish and and we put a magnet on the string and paper clips on the fish and then Russell goes for it!
Last week as we were getting ready for church I caught the whole family in the bathroom together!
Autumn was sitting on the floor with her water Russell grabbed his and joined her.
Autumn wants to walk so bad, so she can keep up with her brother, but she has a way to go.
This was the hike that we went on, it was bit of a test run, we did not take the pack for Russell we did have to take some turns with him riding thought. We hiked to this strange field. Trees don't grow there, just a meadow, they mowed a peace sign into it, it was strange.

Dragons Fairies and John Denver

This Halloween Russell was our roaring dragon, Autumn was something with wings and a tutu and a big flower in her hair, and Chad finally got to be John Denver! Chad has been wanting to do this for a long time so he was pretty excited. He got tons of second takes and lots of laughs. Russell loved the wings and tail on his dragon, he did not really love the head because it was just too big and kept falling into his eyes.
Autumn was not in the mood to hold still for pictures, but she was cute!
Here is another shot of John Denver, it was funny the first couple of times Chad put on the hair, Autumn was so scared of him.
Here was a day this month when we were going to a play group Halloween party, so I took a little pumpkin with me, I love it, Russell wore it when he was her age. awww
I have not had a chance to post 8 months so here it is.
This is Mater pumpkin, Russell was so excited and still talks about His Mater Pumpkin, i was impressed he even stuck his hands in the slimy goo, more than once.
