Merry Christmas!

So this year we totally bombed taking pictures of the boys opening their presents because we were recording them the whole time with the camcorder. In a last ditch effort I took some pictures of them with their big presents from Santa. P.J. loves his new Laptop, there are 30 different activities to play and he is rocking the house on the alphabet game. Our little musician Henry loves to play us nonsense music, mostly just pounding on the keys, but he gets a kick out of it. We really did have a great Christmas even though we missed our families an awful lot.

Christmas Eve

Every year on Christmas eve the boys get a new pair of jammies (mostly so they don't look like ragga muffins while opening presents on Christmas morning). My cute stripy boys loved their jammies with slippers in them as P.J. put it.

Twas the Sunday before Christmas

I just had to post these pictures of the boys in their Sunday Christmas outfits. Henry is at the stage now where he can't take a normal picture so this is the best I can do.

Birthday Boy!

P.J.'s wish to have a Spiderman birthdy cake was fulfilled, maybe not the best looking cake but he thought it was cool.

Oh Little Town of Bethlehem

Our ward Christmas party was set in biblical times and we were supposed to dress in that way. My cute little boys!

Happy 4th Birthday P.J.!

Just a little glimpse of P.J. through the years.

The Flu

It happens every year, someone in the family gets the flu bug. It just happened this weekend when we happened to have some fun things to go to and had to stay home. :( The boys all ended up just having a 24 hour thing and I walked away mostly unscathed, so they were in particularly good moods last night and Henry was saying cheese and looking like this...

Have you ever gotten too close to the space heater?

The other night P.J. and Hen got out of the tub and P.J. was cold so he thought he should stand by the space heater, he went to sit down but apparently he was too close. Poor kid!

Thanksgiving Jammies!

Thanks to Grandma Chris we have new jammies every year for Thanksgiving. The family who live in Utah all get together on Thanksgiving morning for breakfast and watching the parade, it was a really fun tradition, and we have to miss it:(. We still get the Jammies though!

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

First Snow Fall!

The boys were very excited when they woke up this morning to snow, I think that's why they didn't sleep AT ALL last night, they knew it was coming. P.J. can't wait to go out and play, build a snowman and sled!

Happy Anniversary Sweatheart!

It's been 6 years and great! Thanks for a great life and two beautiful boys, I love you!

Happy Birthday Old Fart!

WOW, 28 years old. We had a nice little birthday dinner and I actually had powdered sugar this year to make frosting so because of that Pete had a way better birthday this year than last.

Keene Pumpkin Festival-

We went to the Pumpkin Festival this weekend and of course at the last minute Pete remembered that he had homework to do so we went with McRae and her kids with no husbands. As you can see it is quite the site with all of those pumpkins (and there are a lot of strange people to watch too). All in all we had fun.

Fall in Concord!

We have such a pretty view from our deck that we wanted to share it with all of you, so, here it is!

This is for you Aisha-

Boston with Nana, Aisha, Tara and girls!

Pete was giving P.J. a tour of the ship and told him that the skylight was from the Captains Quarters, so when I asked P.J. what it was he told me it was a skylight then he said, "Daddy thinks it's the Captains Money."

Which one is the Jackass?

Stroller Babies

Izzy, Izzy, where Izzy? Little Miss Chloe

We looked like a polygamist family.

B-town at sunset.

Sleeping Beauty

P.J. had to get in bed with Nana every night they were visiting.

Visit from Grandma Chris & Grandpa Mike

We had such a good time with our family the last week or so, here are some of the fun things we were able to do:

We went to the beach-

We played the Wii-

We went to Vermont-

We love you Grandma Chris, Grandpa Mike, and Ben!

Nature Hike

We're going on a nature hike, or a nature hunt as P.J. would say. Lots and lots of places around here to go hiking so we decided to take advantage of that this past weekend. P.J. has been learning about nature and animals at school so when we asked him what he wanted to do this past Saturday he replied with, "let's go on a nature hunt". Here's what we found...

Halloween is Near!

P.J. is very excited about Halloween, if you didn't already notice from his Spidey video, so he picked out a treat at the store today and loves the fact that it was "Halloween Candy".
