St. Nick Came

Happy St. Nick Day :)  St. Nick spoiled everyone this year, but boy were the boys excited!

 They spotted their shared gift right away!

 The beloved "Santa climbing the ladder" - their favorite Target find.  When Lucas saw it, he said "St. Nick must shop at Target".  I guess we go there a lot hahaha.

 This kid is obsessed!

 And of course their stockings had fruit and little candy.

 They watch him all day. I guess it was worth it :)

Oh Christmas Tree

We always love our annual trip to the Christmas Tree farm.  We have been going to the same one since Adam was a baby.  It is a smaller, family ran farm and the staff is the sweetest.  The boys love it :)

 On a mission to find the best one!

 We found ours!

 Always need a silly face picture :)

 Time to saw!

Hauling back their fins

 Time to decorate.

Finished family room :)  Merry Christmas time everyone!

December times

Random moments from the past couple of weeks,

 Santa hats make the best accessory to wear everywhere!

 such a cutie!

 I put these little elves to work getting the Christmas cards ready.

 Ben has been reading his grandma's book to the boys at night before bed now.  They love hearing her stories!  Lucas wanted to draw a picture of her book (from memory) to send her as a thank you for writing the book.  Here is the side by side ;)

 Last day of school before Christmas break

 Auntie Trin and Uncle Mike came to visit to make cookies!

I am so lucky to have friends love our little boys so much!

I got a night out with Christine and Emily.  We went to the UD game.

Post Thanksgiving Weekend

After all the Thanksgiving celebrations we were able to hang out at home as our little family and just spend some quality time together. 

 We even made another Thanksgiving dinner! Lucas helped with the pumpkin pie crust.

 Adam helped make some sour dough bread.

 Lucas had a blast playing outside in the leaves :)

 Adam wanted to wear the baby carrier

 Lucas was showing off being a "meat eater"

 Then of course the Christmas excitement started!

 love love love!

Thanksgiving

A little late, but Happy Thanksgiving!

The boys made "thankful turkeys" this year.  Everyday in November before Thanksgiving, they wrote something they were thankful for on a feather to add to their turkey.  It was a fun little craft and got the boys thinking about all they had in their lives :)

Finished product!

My sweet littlest turkey!

Best group shot I could get.

I am very thankful for these people everyday!

Quinn and the older two matched :)

Thanksgiving morning Ben and the boys got to enjoy a hike :)
