Merry Christmas- 2013

Having a 2 year old and a 4 year old equals so much fun, excitement and joy to the holidays. My parents came in town and were loads of help as always. Ray and I even squeezed in two dates!

Holiday Pictures

We are so lucky to be able to have a healthy family of four, to have the means to take family pictures and to have you in our lives. Merry Christmas!

Happy Thanksiving

We had a WONDERFUL time with family this Thanksgiving. We have so much that we are thankful for.

Christmas Concert

It was adorable! Connor last night at his school sang;
Jingle Bells
Feliz Navidad
We wish you a Merry Christmas
and Santa Claus is coming town

Sorry the video is sideways.

Green/Red

We have thought Connor was color blind as he never knows green is green. After an appointment at Children's opthology where they performed 24 tests.....he is NOT color blind, he just doesn't know green for some reason.  They dilated his eyes but ray said he didn't even mind because those people are miracle workers and know just what kids need to put them at ease.

A new club

It is the end of an era. We use to frequent SAMs club once a week for diapers and formula. Thank goodness those days are over. Our membership ends December 31st and we no longer have a need for it. I I loaded up one last time on the essentials that should last us a year. 

Now on to soccer games and other clubs to fill the void.

The trees are bare and we are done mowing the lawn for the year! Everyone says Connor looks like Ray but all I see in these pictures is a 4 year old Jill.

Happy Movember

Busy weekend

Friday night Ellie and her parents came over to play cards. Saturday the boys sat on Santas lap at Christmas in West Chester. Sunday Connor's choir had a concert and then we had Con's best friend Tristyn's birthday party.

Cleveland

We went this past weekends to Clevelabd and were spoiled with love by Ray's family. 

I completely forgot to take pictures over at the Carter's house- darn. That little Evan sure is a cutie!!

Here are pics at uncle Paul's house with cousin Emma Clare...and rays Mo- velvet week one!

Happy Weekend

The boys are watching the Great Pumpkin something or other from Charlie Brown tonight. In person everyone says Ryan looks just like me and Connor looks just like Ray. What do you think?
Connor definitely has Ray's brain power. He was watching Toy Story 3 for tonight and kept telling us what was going to happen next even though he has only seen that movie a few times a few months ago.

Happy Halloween from Spiderman & Ironman

Cute Ryan pics on my phone

Growing up tooooo fast

Ray dressed the boys this morning. He's the stylist around here.

Busy fun

We went to friend Adams birthday party and then hung out with Andy/alya/maive in from Chicago.
