Christmas Eve

This year for Christmas after 9 years of marriage Jeff and I decided it was time to stay home for the holidays. So on Christmas Eve we went to Jeff's cousin Steve's house for dinner, Santa and a white elephant exchange. We had a lot of fun!!! Thanks Steve and Tana for having us! Then we went home to have Christmas Eve with the kids. It started with a later dinner of pasta, sparkling cider, and cake. Parker called it a "Family Date! Then we opened Pjs and My grandma had made some cute quilts for the kids so they got to open those. Then we played games and read stories, put out the stockings and cookies and went to bed. Christmas Eve was really fun! I loved staying home and starting our little traditions with our kids. And it was fun intermixing traditions from both sides of the family. eNJOY the slide show!

Snow Day.....School Cancelled.....I'm Not Kidding!!!

Updates........

I know it has been a while since I posted but getting use to three kids is a little tricky. But I think I am holding down the fort ok! Well on to the update:

1. I want to thank everyone who has helped out with the kids, came to visit us, brought meals to our family, and everything else. We really appreciated everything and are truly grateful for a Wonderful Family and Great Friends. We are so Blessed!!!!
2. Halloween- Well Jeff and I headed to the Hospital around 1:30 Thursday night which threw a Kink in all the holiday festivities. Kennedy's parade, Her class party, and Trick or Treating that night! Jeff I don't think minded so much but, for a girl who was born in October on Friday the 13th, LOVES Halloween!!! I was so sad to miss out But, I got a wonderful surprise instead! Thanks again to all those who filled in for me (Mom for being with Kennedy and Abby for Kennedy's cute Hair do! (Sorry for the early phone calls)). I think the kids costumes turned out so cute!!! My mom made Kennedy's cute dress. And if you don't know who Fancy Nancy is-Look it up! Every little girl should own these books! Batman was so cool too! Parker is a little shy so when he put on his mask he thought he was INBISABLE!!!
3. And to my Family: Jeff, Kennedy ,Parker and Porter Thanks so much for all your Help. I Love you guys very much! You're the Best Family a mom could ask for! After having some late nights and early hours and it has been 4 years since my last can you blame me for being just a little Crabby!
4. Thank You!!!

Locks of Love

Good-Bye long hair! I had decided a few months back
that I would grow my hair out until it was time for the baby
and then I would cut it off and donate it. So I did it all right!
I went back and forth but I am glad I did it! What better
month than October to do so! Breast Cancer Awareness.
And I didn't even cry!

Orange CrushHere are a few pictures of Kennedy playing

soccer she kept asking me to post them.

She felt a little left out because I posted some

of Parker. In this game she scored 2 of the 4 goals.

They won 4-3! She is pretty good I might add!
