Hannah's Birthday

We had Hannah's surprise birthday party at our house. It was tons of fun. We had pizza and banana splits instead of cake. :) Happy B-day Hannah! :)

Funny Things

So, I just have to put this in here cause it was SO funny!

This picture is of Lexi from a couple years ago and doesn't technically match the story, but it had snow in it. :)


So the other day, Britton tells Lexi he'll play whatever she wants to and asks her what she wants to do.

Her response:

"Let's go throw snowballs at the bulls!"

Our House

Ok, So i'll get more pics on here later, but this is the floor plan for our house. :) We love it and are considering trying to buy it if we stay. :) (we don't have the bonus room... I wish we did)
It does have a full unfinished basement that we could finish which would total about 3700 sqft when finished and be a 6 bed 3 or 4 bath house. :) Here's hoping we're supposed to stay and buy and finish the house. ;)

Christmas

So yet another holiday that we only got limited pictures of... lol.... I feel bad that somehow we have no pictures of Britton for both holidays now. I thought I got one of him opening his valet, but apparently not.



The girls in matching jammie tops.



Me helping Lexi to open a present. Ashton is on my lap.




Well, at least we got pictures of our first Christmas alone set table... lol.



Just for the three of us.

Skaneateles, NY

Actually pronounced skinny-atlas. They have a "Dickens village" every year where the characters from a Christmas Carol walk around. There are also free roasted chestnuts and free hot-cocoa. We had a great time, eating a late lunch at the hotel there,



going on a free carriage ride,



and then meeting various characters including:

Charles Dickens


Father Christmas

(Lexi's good friends Madeline and Scott were there randomly)

Scrooge

( he gave us a little coupon for a free post-it pack)

Thanksgiving

We had some friends over for thanksgiving, but forgot to take pictures while they were there...lol... so these pics are what we have to remember it by.... ;)


This was my first ever turkey... :) It turned out great!
All moist and yummy!
Thank you Michelle and thank you Fine Cooking!


Pumpkin and Apple pies....we've discovered that Cortland apples really are the bestfor Apple Pie! All sweet and tart with perfect texture! YUM!
