Oh Christmas Tree!

November 25, 2011 - It is our tradition to cut down our Christmas tree the day after Thanksgiving. After my Black Friday shopping (you didn't really think I would skip out on the best shopping day of the year did you?) we went to Mosquito Hill to find our perfect tree. It was absolutely beautiful today!!! We didn't even need coats, just a fleece and we were perfect.MaKayla is posingAll smiles
Daddy is playing with the kids in the field of trees. We took our time since it was so nice out. Last year we had to hurry and pick from the first few we say it was so cold!My handsome boy!He thinks he is "Super Tall"Princess perfect pose!We found our perfect tree!MaKayla and Noah helped Daddy cut down the tree.November 26, 2011 - MaKayla is putting her ornaments on the tree.Daddy lifts Noah to the branch that he wanted to put his ornament on.Both of the kids thought they needed to put all the ornaments as high as they could. They just liked climbing the ladder. We had a clutter of ornaments that Andy and I had to move after the kids went to bed.November 27, 2011 - A picture of the outside of our winter wonderland. Andy told me that I am not allowed to buy any more Christmas lights for outside.

Christmas Parade

November 22, 2011 - MaKayla was asked if she wanted to walk in the Christmas Parade representing Mirror Image Dance Academy. They also needed additional Party Dancers and Pinky Mice so Noah and I also walked in the parade. It was was a cold night. I hate being cold so I made sure we dressed for the weather. My kids may look like stuffed marshmallows but they were warm! MaKayla was dressed was a golden kiss from the Land of Sweets of the Nutcracker.MaKayla and Noah with some of the other dancers.My little pinky mouse!Noah with the Mouse KingMaKayla with the NutcrackerNoah with the NutcrackerMaKayla with the Mouse KingMaKayla and her friend with Mrs. GingerMaKayla loved walking in the paradeWalking in the parade was fun.

1st Parent Teacher Conference

November 11, 2011 - Today I had my first parent teacher conference for MaKayla. Ms. Jennifer gave MaKayla a glowing review! Why is it that your child always behaves better for other people than they do for you at home? =) Seriously, we are very proud of our princess! Keep up the good work sweeheart! We love you very much!November 12, 2011 - We celebrated MaKayla's achievement with a night out at Funset Blvd. We all had a blast with special thanks to MaKayla's hard work!

Brain Freeze!

November 10, 2011 - The kids wanted to play on the fresh snow. I think they ate the amount of daily water in snow!
MaKayla was ready to throw a snowball at me!

Up to no good =)

They gave themselves brain freeze!

Let It Snow...Not Yet!!!!

November 9, 2011 - It snowed all day today. They say we ended up getting 3 inches. I am not ready for this yet! We still have not done our leaves!
The kids were excited to see the snow!

Noah and Buddy are cuddled up together.

My New Do!

November 05, 2011 - I have had the same hair style forever. I needed a change so I had my hair cut a couple of days ago. I had to go back in and have her teach me how to style it. This is how she styled my hair.
November 6, 2011 - My first attempt at styling my new hair cut. I used a flat iron to pull some of my curls longer in the front.

November 8, 2011 - I am getting getting used to the flat iron and how to make large curls with it. I am starting to like my new cut now.

November 9, 2011 - Playing with different ways to style it.

Buddies 1st time outside

November 7, 2011 - Noah wanted to take Buddy outside so he could eat some grass. I was a little nervous because he is a baby and very quick! He has never been outside before. He ended up doing great!
Noah did a good job picking out a handsome guinea pig! He is super soft too!

Noah says, "Buddy has lots of colors."

Buddies!

Noah loves his new pet!

Noah is trying to feed Buddy a leaf.
