The Holidays

Well it has been so long since I have posted that I think I will just sum up the past four months in one long post. Sorry if it gets too long and boring. I have started this post about 20 different times but it just hasn't worked out.

For New Year's my parents, sister, and her family came down. We had lots of yummy food on the 31st, then had a snow day on the first.

Brian and my brother-in-law used their four wheelers to pull the kids on sleds. They loved it!




We had a couple of snow days this year with friends and family. I have to say that this one was my favorite because it was in our backyard so.....Brielle took a nap the whole time. I didn't have to deal with tired cold kids at all! This is Brielle getting ready for some grub clueless that she missed out on all of the fun.



Tanner couldn't wait for Christmas this year. He was so excited and facinated with the whole idea of Santa Clause. That Santa knew just what he wanted. Thomas the Train. He loved it so much I had a really hard time getting any pictures of him. He builds tracks lines up trains and hauls coal for a good 2-3 hours a day. Beauty.

Grandma Sorensen stopped by after a dental appointment and brought everything needed to make a really cute gingerbread house. Tanner loved it.

My parents,three of my sisters and their kids came to our house for Thanksgiving this year. All that delicious food still brings a smile to my face. In all of the cooking, cleaning, and fun I didn't take many pictures. I did get this one of the kids doing their "project". Now whenever they are together they ask for a new project to do. The best part about it...they are so quiet when they do them!

Last but not least Halloween. Tanner really wanted to be Spiderman for Halloween. I came across this Superman and convinced him to wear it. I still missed the really cute Amish guy, and Cowboy I had in Halloweens past, but I put my feelings aside and went for the not so cute Superman. Of course he loved it. If you are like Brian and can't figure out what Brielle is, she is a clown and yes I know the bow is huge! I can't help myself.

We hope you all had a great one.
