Our Trip to Erie, PA

Surprisingly enough Finlee kept herself entertained on the plane by watching the IPOD :)

And Nash did really good too.........he fell asleep on the plane both there AND back! This pic is just when we were traveling in the car when we were there visiting :)

Christmas all over again :)

Cheese!

This picture makes me cold just looking at it :)

We went to a ski resort and went tubing! I was a nervous wreck b/c Fin wanted to do this! Your SUPPOSE to be 5- years- old but we kind of bent the rules a little bit! She was SO excited!

Up the mountain to slide down the mountain.........MY 3-YEAR-OLD ALL BY HERSELF!!!

HERE WE GO!!! After doing this a couple of times Fin decided she wanted to slide down all by herself...............and she did!! She loved it!

Ok, so I know this pictures means nothing to Kris' family but to MY friends and family.................this is crazy!!! I can't imagine seeing this ALL THE TIME in the winter! We were in the Wal-Mart parking lot.

Here is Finlee's 1st real snowman :)

Fin and her cousin Ciara in the barn "fixin to" feed to horses!

She still loves horses :)

Fin, Ciara, and Uncle Joe riding in the gator!

We had A LOT of fun! We got to see everybody and I finally got to see A LOT of snow! We can't wait to go back and visit but maybe we can get them to come visit us b/c it sure is a lot warmer here! Thank you for having us Gramma Kathy! We Love You :)

Nash turns 1!!!

Happy Birthday Sweet Boy!

Nash turned 1 on Dec 30th and we were down at the beach :)

He LOVES to carry the TV controls around and every once in a while he'll stop what he's doing and point them at the TV :)

He LOVES his Sissy!

Ok, so I know some people think this is terrible but since he IS just 1 and has absolutely NO clue about his birthday yet, I decided to just do a small cake for him at Christmas and not have a birthday party! But I promise when he starts to understand he'll have WHATEVER kind of party he wants :0)

We were singing to him! The cake was an elf........I forgot to take a picture of the front, but it was really cute!

He's starting to pick at the cake........take note Fin's hands are inching toward the ICING!!!

And there he goes face first!!!!!

And he's done because we all started laughing at him!!!
BLESS HIS HEART :)

More December pics

Steph took them to the McWane Center with Sallie & Luke.
Something tells me this was not an easy picture to get :)

Santa made a special trip to Bailey & Micah's house before Christmas. We took the kids and they got their pictures made with him. Fin told Santa that she wanted "Lots of things for Christmas!"

Nash is watching Finlee at dance class!

Ha! Ha! Does she look bored?

This is hilarious! I can't wait to watch these when she's older :)

Christmas day pics

Ha! Ha! This picture cracks me up!!!!

This was on Christmas Eve and she was making her own sleigh with her bears :)

We heard feet running down the hallway at 7:15 on Christmas morning! She was screaming "Mommy, Daddy........Santa comed!" Aw! It was priceless! She was SO excited!
She woke the whole house up! As you can tell from this picture Nash could have slept a little longer!!!

They played none stop ALL DAY LONG!

This was one of her favorites..........."Daddy's little chef!"

It's Christmas time ALREADY!!!

The Christmas tree is in the playroom.......how crazy are we!?!? That's really the only place to put it but believe it or not Nash has not bothered it that much:) Kris tied it off to the drape hangers just to make sure it wouldn't fall over...ha! ha! Please excuse the skirtless tree, I refused to get in the attic to get the rest of the decorations b/c I'm still TRAUMATIZED from my "snake encounter"........thankfully Kris is not afraid of them so everything is decorated now :)

This is my TRUE Fin :)

Nash is walking!!!! YAY!! I can't believe he's about to be 1 year old!!

My sweet baby :)

Daddy and his kiddos! They LOVE to roll all over him :)

He LOVES the camera!

This is cute but you should see some of the stuff she puts together and has a meltdown to wear! It KILLS me when things DON'T match!! Kris on the other hand would let her wear WHATEVER she put on!!!!!

This is just a short clip of Nash walking! He looks like Frankenstein when he walks :)

Halloween Fun

Fin had parents night at her dance class again! They got to dress in their Halloween costumes :) Here she's TRYING to be shy!!!

We were waiting on her turn to dance.......sweet picture :)

Fin and Sallie...... she's definitely a favorite in our house :)

Cute picture :)
Sallie and Luke came over to play and do a halloween craft!
I ALWAYS hear how much fun they have!

We went to the beach house for Halloween! Here is Nash's black eye that he got when he slipped in the tub and hit the edge of the drain :( Poor baby! He didn't cry but a minute and the cut wasn't as deep as it looked, so no ER trip! He does have a shiner though!!

Mr. Pumpkin and Miss Butterfly

We went trick-or-treating in Baytowne! It was a lot of fun but really cold! After we went around to all the shops there was a magic show and fireworks! Fin loved it.....she's still asking us "how that man got that money out of that boy's ear?".......oh, to be a kid again :)

He didn't last long after his 7:30 bedtime :)

While at the beach I promised Kris I would give fishing one more try! I swore I would never go again after being sea sick the last time! I wore a patch behind my ear this time and it worked like a charm! We went out and and guess what!?! I caught an 18lb King Mackerel......I don't know who was more excited me or Kris :) It really was a lot of fun....I fought him for about 15 minutes and then got him in the boat :) I would have done anything to have a video camera of how excited my husband was :)

This is the video of Finlee doing "Ghostbusters" at dance class! This one is histerical!!!!
This is bound to put a little laughter in your day!

The Pumpkin Patch

After a lot of indecisiveness we decided to go to the pumpkin patch on Friday! The forecast said it was 90% chance of rain all day so we thought it was just going to be a lazy day at home, but when we got up the rain had stopped and it was almost 80 degrees!! So much for the cute matching outfits that I bought the kids to wear to the pumpkin patch! They were long sleeve turtle necks! Anyway after giving up and just letting her wear what she wanted to wear this is where we ended up :) I know, I know, it doesn't matter :)
These pictures are out of order, but we had a great time! It was not crowded at all because of the unpredictable forecast :)

We rode a wagon to pick out our pumpkin :)

Our good friends, Josh and Amber met us there. As you can see Caleb was ready to pick out a pumpkin :)

Chubba bubba and his pumpkins :)

She was so excited!

She got her face painted and went through the "hay maze."

Cheese!!!!!

Fin and Caleb both did this! Caleb is 14 months and loved it.....he sucked his thumb the whole time!!!

She was a little nervous at first but then she didn't want to stop!

Since there was hardly anybody there we got the moonwalks all to ourselves!

No.......your eyes aren't playing tricks on you....... Kris took him down the slide!!! I almost had a heart attack but he really loved it!!!!

She loved it too!!! Little Miss Independent!!

Nobody's looking but it's still cute :)
