My little yogis

Body Alive, the yoga and fitness studio that Katherine and I go to had a family yoga workshop that we took Lucas and Adam to this weekend.  They had such a good time.

 Getting ready for some yoga (or as Adam called it "the Yoda")

 Working on his tree pose

 Adam's favorite was downward dog.

And bonus, there were special treats afterwards!

Zoo Lights

This is one of our most favorite Christmas activities (I am pretty sure I say that about all of the activities - but hey, we love everything Christmas!!)  We headed to the Cincinnati Zoo for their Festival of Lights.

 Mrs.  Clause!

 We found reindeer

 The best light tunnel

 We brought hot chocolate for the boys, I think they were fans :)

 Love this little face

Super dad carried 2 tired and heavy boys back to the car.

Bethlehem Bazaar

Some cute little cousins from last weekend when we went to the Bethlehem Bazaar at Phil and Cathy's church.  The boys dressed up as if they were from the time of Jesus and got to make some really cute Christmas crafts.

Christmas Lights

This year Ben decided to let the boys hang lights up outside.  While he was on the roof, the boys handled the ground.  They sure had a lot of fun being involved.

Christmas at Prasco Park

Prasco Park in Mason put on a community event last weekend.  You had to register in a lottery to win a ticket and we got lucky enough to win a time slot! It was a beautiful event and the boys loved it.

 Lucas is still in love with Santa, Adam is starting to love him more and Caleb is not feeling the stranger in red.

 They got to write letters to Santa.

 And mail them!

Christmas Tree Day!

We had to go to another place to get our tree this year because we had some plans on the other side of town.  It was tough to find a tree there but we found one that will work for us.  Hopefully we'll make it back to our favorite place next year :)  Until then, these memories will make us smile.

 We found one!

 Annual family picture with our tree picture.

 Watching Daddy get it started.

 Lucas' turn.

 Adam's turn.

 Two of the best helpers.

And a couple days later the boys helped get it all decorated :)

Thanksgiving weekend

Happy belated Thanksgiving everyone! We celebrated early with my side of the family with a homemade pizza night and then went to Ben's parent's on Thursday.  We are thankful for all of the special people in our lives.

 Lucas was sad that we didn't have any Christmas decorations out before Thanksgiving, so he drew the Nativity scene on the chalkboard to hold him over.

 Adam helped me make an apple pie!

 We started fixing up our entrance closet and the boys got to help paint :)

 This guy is just too cute.

Throughout November the boys wrote things they were thankful for on leaves for our tree.  Plus they made the paper plate turkeys.
