Christmas Morning

Snowflake Lane

This was the first year we took the kids. I am so impressed this is done daily in Bellevue. The kids loved it, there were way to many people and we needed a better location, but we will do it again for sure! 

 

 

 

 

 

Anual D Date

The kids had their anual date with auntie Jodi so Josh and I could venture out for the night. They loved getting to make their own gingerbread cookies.  

 

 

The Great Christmas Tree Hunt

Well, it took three Christmas tree farms, but we finally found the perfect tree! I love that we went and cut down a tree this year. The kids has a great time at the first two farms. By the third, they were done! Thankfully, there was hot chocolate, a soccer team buddy and a bon fire to make the third farm worth it! Not to mention the tree!

This was the best tree we could find at the first lot... obviously we had to move on.

Our Tree.

 

 

 

 

 

Santa Train

Our Santa Train tradition has quickly become a favorite of the kids. This year, Avery even did a presentation at school about santa train. Our pictures never turn out like envision in my head, but it is totally worth it.  

 

 

 

 

Happy Thanksgiving

I am Thankful for these Hooligans. Here is my attempt at a family pic. Clearly it was really successful!
 

 

 

Halloween

This year we had two Ninja's and mini mouse at our house for Halloween. I think we have finally gotten to the point with the boys that I am not longer able to "help" pick out their costumes... so we ended up with two wonderful ninja costumes.

Brady and I were both feeling pretty terrible on Halloween, but we managed to pull it together long enough to go trick or treating down in town and around the block. But, I have to say our candy supply is lower than past years.

 

 

I am pretty sure we made Ellie's year with the whole trick or treating thing. She would rush up to each house with the boys, yell "treat" and go for the bowl of candy. A girl after my own heart!

 

 

 

Pumpkin Carving Night

We had a pumpkin pizza/pumpkin carving night at the Sattler house before Halloween.
 

 

The Boys did an awesome job carving their own little pumpkins by themselves.
