found it!

Snow is here! Just in time for the New Year!

still no snow

Still no snow! We're trying to make up for it in other ways.

Cantigny

Sunny and 60 degrees!? Off to Cantigny we go to climb on the tanks and explore the house and museum! We love having cousins visit!

Look at Boston and Rosie all snug and warm. SO CUTE!

next time...

...Next time Josh takes the boys on a hike in the woods, he probably won't drop his phone. 

He's lucky he was able to find it after calling it over and over again!

festive hair

I got my hair done last weekend and I love it! It's red and pink and purple and blonde. SO fun! Thanks Julie!

Christmas Brunch

I hosted Christmas Brunch this year. It was a success! I only remembered to take pictures of the table the night beofre, not of the whole family together enjoying one another's company. oops!

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

Well the Lego fairy...I MEAN, Santa found our house! It was a great year for the kiddos--they got a bajillion more Legos. SO FUN!

Cason even got FIREFIGHTER Legos which is like a double amazing present!

Grandpa helped Cason put together his burning house and fire truck!

Daddy helped Benson put together his Lego Temple!

Merry Christmas Eve

Today I'm especially grateful for this crew of mine! As we take time to focus on the Savior and his birth, I can't help but think how grateful I am for Him and all He has done for me that makes this awesome family of mine possible! Merry Christmas, everyone!

The kiddos are all nestled snug in Benson's bed. With visions of presents dancing in their heads. 

Santa left his loot...

And left even more by the Christmas tree too!

Look who's here!

Cousins have arrived! Let the fun begin!!!

chores

I've posted this chore before, but today when Cason helped take out the trash bin, it was just so cute seeing my little man being so helpful. I love my family! Happy 1st day of Winter!

warm?

It's been unusually warm this last week, so Josh took the boys on a picnic/hike through the woods behind our house. FUN!

I have nothing else to post

Our days really do consist of making elaborate lego creations. Don't judge. 

wearing this kiddo out, one adventure at a time

Who knew a trip to the library could tire a kid out?
