Christmas Christmas Time is Here

Here is our happy little elf :) Let's go cut down our Christmas tree...

We got the perfect one...
I am almost bigger than this silly tree.

Geez... are you afraid I will get cold?

This party is over!
hmmm??? Which ones are mine?Can't you see I am trying to crawl here?Yummy!

Mommy's Babies... :)

Better be good... Santa is coming.

It's Raining, It's Pouring...

...and it is snowing in the mountains! A freezing storm arrived at 1am this morning. It is dropping a ton of snow in our local mountains. I'd love to go up there and show it to William this weekend but I know half of San Diego will be there so.... nope... we will wait.

What a beautiful treat for Christmas time though.

It is pouring at my house right now. It has been since early this morning...and it is cold.

These are some old snow pics...enjoy!

...this is Tumbleweed when it rains...she is wondering if there is snow in the mountains and if we will go there...

And here she is at the mountains in the snow...see how happy snow makes her...

Long Time No Post - Last of Thanksgiving

Sorry for my delay in posting. I have been super busy lately. Christmas seems to be sneaking up on my this year. Usually I have all my shopping done, the house decorated to the max and all the packages wrapped by now. Leaving only the baking to do.

That is not the case this year. I have lots of shopping to do yet, the house is not getting the full treatment of decor this year but most the packages are wrapped... so that is a strart. I still need to plan the cookie bake....hmmmm???

My little one have been keeping me extra busy this year. He is trying to crawl and has been teething. Poor little guy has been getting frusterated and upset a lot lately. He has sooo much determination though. We lay him on a blanket every night about 3 feet from the presents and tree and he manages to scoot himself on his belly to the presents - it is so cute. We are proud of him. His new acheivements excite us.

I'll leave you with some pics we took Thanksgiving weekend and on our to our Aunt Becki's house that same weekend...we had a great time!

Thanksgiving Mashed Potatoes

Here is William tasting Mashes Potatoes on Turkey Day. It was his first taste of real food. I think he thought it was yummy.

Hey! Turkey's don't fly.
William and Daddy.
Mommy with William.

Cousin Rylee playing with William.

Ducks & Geese

Here are some super shots my mom took this week with her new camera.

This is a cute one of my Stepdad Greg and his dog Charlie. Greg gave my Mom a new camera with a card that said to pack her bags for a week long birthday vacation....it is a surprise where to - they leave Saturday... my Momma turns 60 on Sunday!

Happy Birthday Momma!

I love you!

William's First Camping Trip

Last month we took William camping for his first time!



He was a very happy camper!

We had lots of visitors...

All of William's little cousins came to play...

Hayley as Dorthy and little Rylee too :)

Jacob came and spent the day with us and the evening too.

We went fishing.

We caught the worlds smallest fish.
The weather was perfect... Tumbleweed was very happy.

We enjoyed the night with a nice fire.
William had fun with Grandpa...
...and with Daddy.


We can't wait to go again!

We all had a great time!

Daddy was excited to be camping with his boy! :)
