'Tis the Season

Thanksgiving is over and it's officially the Christmas season.  We have our lights on the house and our Christmas tree up.  The boys were so excited to decorate this year.  Once we got our tree up, Wyatt was jumping up and down yelling "Christmas Tree--I love it!"  He was so cute! 

We also went to see Santa come in downtown tonight on a fire truck.  Both boys loved the fire truck.  Ethan said he didn't know that Santa drove a fire truck!  Ethan was super excited to see Santa and sit on his lap--pure joy.  Wyatt on the other hand...well, he wouldn't even look at Santa.  He sat on his lap for a bit, but there was no eye contact.  Ha!  The candy cane made it all better :-) 
Love this time of year!

 

 

Daddy's Hats

 

Happy Thanksgiving

Here is a picture of Ethan at his class Thanksgiving party.  He enjoyed their little feast and was so excited I came to hang out during the party.

Happy Halloween

Our Halloween celebration started over the weekend.  Grammy and Grampa came to visit and we went to a Halloween carnival.  It was fun to show off our costumes.  The boys were a mailman and a UPS man.  They were both super cute and got lots of comments.  Ethan even borrowed Grandpa Giebler's mailman hats, so he could look really authentic. 

We also had a trunk or treat at our church over the weekend. 

Here we are tonight all dressed up and ready for candy!!  Our first stop was MeMa and PaPa's.  So fun to have family to trick or treat to this year.

Here's Daddy sporting his Halloween accessory....a new Boot.  He started having trouble with his ankle last week and it got progressively worse until last night around 11 when he decided he couldn't take the pain any more.  We called my parents, who got out of bed and came to sit with the boys, while we went to the ER.  After some pain medicine and a large needle in his ankle to drain off the fluid we got back home a little after 2 and could finally get some sleep.  Thank you Mom and Dad for being here to help!  Ben is feeling better today, but will go in for an MRI on Monday to see what is really going on.  Fun times...

 

Family Photos 2012

Ben's Brother, Danny took our family photos this year.  I think he did fabulous.  Thank you Danny for the wonderful pictures and thank you Vicki for helping make my boys smile!
I love them all, but here are a couple of my favorites!
