The after party.  My babies love to dance.  I wish I would have had the camera ready.  When we got there Eric was busting out the moves on the dance floor.  It was hilarious.  The other two were doing a good job though.  This is Amy and Eric’s “Best Friend”

Winter Fun


Nebraska’s not known for it’s packable snow.  And when we do have a good snow it is usually followed by a nice gusty wind.  So, Snowman conditions are rare.  Today was a perfect day.  This is the first snowman I have helped with since I was 10, and the second snowman of my life.  I’m pretty pleased with it.  The middle ball is kind of misshaped due to the heaviness of it and my girly arms trying to lift it.  It was a lot of fun to watch Leah and Eric push the ball and watch it get bigger and bigger. 

We then went sledding and finally home for some hot chocolate.

Thanksgiving

I’m thankful for a beautiful day, being with family, and THE FOOD, of course!

Dad’s can do hair too.  Especially with these little babies.  See how cute it turns out.

Betsy went to the store in the morning to get incredible deals.  She paid practically nothing for this stuff.  She is awesome.  Then we had to go to the store after dinner so Betsy could get some supplies to make a bunch of these things.  They are pretty cool.

Pumpkin Patch and More Halloween

You can obviously tell our favorite time of the year.  We tend to take more pictures this time of year than any other.  All of our traditions are focused around fall.

The Best Part of Trick-or-Treating is…. Candy!
