It's Beginning to Look A Lot Like Christmas...

Hanging the lights and decorating the tree...
Landon was totally into the tree decorating, Parker- not so much. Each year the boys get an ornament that describes what they are currently "into". My hope is that on their 1st Christmas as married men I can gift each of them their ornaments. One of those silly mom things...
Anyway, Landon chose a basketball guy (because of his love for High School Musical and anything Troy Bolton). Parker's is Lightning McQueen from Cars the movie. I mark with a Sharpie their name on the ornament and the current year. I hope this will be a sentiment they will learn to appreciate. :)

Annual Ornaments

Thanksgiving 2008

Our family spent the Thanksgiving holiday weekend up at Hume Lake with Joel's family. We had a great time of food and fellowship. The boys had a blast running in the woods with their cousins, playing hide N seek in the dark, riding the Fat Cat (motorcycle) and Quads. We did not et to have snow fall, but we drove to a great spot about 30 minutes away that had enough snow to entertain all of us! Enjoy the pictures...

One of our favorite places in the world...

New Park

As most of you know, Santa Clarita has parks on every corner. But, the latest and greatest is truly AMAZING... it has a three story slide, super cool climbing things and the best part... it overlooks the valley with an amazing view. The boys LOVED it and are begging to go back... thank goodness it's down the street :)
