December 31, 2015

Lots of fun stuff happened over the past week or so and I’m just going to go in order to get through it all. First up? The ever so exciting and fun dentist visit! ha!

On the 21st, the boys had their teeth all checked out and did great…even if Spencer didn’t love getting his teeth cleaned!

Great reports from the dentist are always welcome!

On the 23rd, Maxwell got to have a little Christmas playdate and Max, James, and Lila came over to play and have lunch. They all had a great time…and especially loved it when Susan popped up some Jiffy Pop for them!

They were quite the crew all piled up together on the couch.

We even got to have our very favorite visitor over for the playdate!

We’ve baked cookies, listened to Christmas songs, and wrapped lots of presents! We’re ready for the big day! Ho Ho Ho!

ps – I guess all Samantha really wanted for Christmas was her two front teeth because they are popping through!

Thanksgiving in the Mountains

December 3, 2015

On Thanksgiving morning, we loaded up and drove to Highlands, NC to spend the long weekend with Robert’s parents. It was a GORGEOUS weekend and we had a great time! We loved getting to bundle up in our coats but still feel the sunshine on our face. We had a fantastic Thanksgiving meal thanks to LuLu, a great dinner out with our good friends, Patrick and Liz, and even made a trip to a Mexaurant! All the kids slept better than I could have hoped. We hiked and ran around the golf course and even saw Santa Claus light up a giant Christmas tree! The only disappointing thing? No mountain lions were spotted…much to Maxwell’s dismay!  🙂

I took some new Christmas pjs for the kids to wear on Thanksgiving night. A good kick-off to the holiday season!

On Friday, we hiked up to the top of Sunset Rock with Patrick and Henry.

On Saturday night we went into town (Robert even left the tv halfway through he Iron Bowl! Shocker!) to meet up with the Woods to drink hot chocolate, sing Christmas carols, and watch Santa light up the tree right in the center of town! So neat and quaint! 🙂

ps – that’s not the tree. 🙂

Here’s a few more pictures from the fun weekend.
