Thanksgiving

This year we had a great thanksgiving and I kind of forgot to take pictures, i only got a few.  My mom and grandma came up to visit and the Johnson's came over for the Thanksgiving feast.  This was our 4th Thanksgiving with the Johnson's and as always the food was awesome.

Kade Rachel and I made turkeys

We also did a thankful tree. Kade loved doing it and was so cute about what he was thankful for.  Its up high because Seth kept trying to tear it off the wall.

The turkey hat lives again.

Jesse carving the turkey.  I'm pretty sure he got every little piece of meat off.



Being very precise

He is so cute. and don't mind Jill's blurry hand in the picture

Our yummy turkey.  I tried getting a picutre before we tried to move it and I forgot so this is after we started to lift it up and then it kind of fell apart. The turkey turned out amazing

Made these fun turkey cups for Rex, Chloe, and Kade.

The kid's table.  These guys are thebest of friends

A long couple of days

I love these two.  Its awesome that they are starting to play more, or I guess I should say Seth wants to play and Kade quickly grabs his cars and runs. Sometimes he will share just not those beloved cars in that scooby doo bucket...sigh.  I decided to blog real quick because I had such a crappy night.  The boys have been under the weather not sure if Seth is teething or what but snot is all over, Kade got sick Saturday morning which was not fun. Then monday morning he wet the bed and as I was getting the water ready for his bath he peed all over my foot.  Then later I went upstairs to find glitter all over the playroom and my vacuum wasn't working, it was jammed with pine needles.  It was a long day, and then last night I got sick and threw up..That hasn't happened in a long time.  I got some great sleep, Seth slept almost 12 hours finally.  I think I finally fed him enough dinner, I may have forgoten to feed him dinner the other night and he was up every two hours to eat....Lesson learned.
So here is hoping today goes better and it already has.  Kade came down saying he wet the bed!  Ughhh oh wait I put him in a pull up!!! I win!  He drank a ton for dinner and then had juice at Ken and Pam's!  Now he is asleep in my bed, 6 was just a little to early.  Time to get some work done.

Getting our Christmas tree

I just have to say I really hate blogger right now and I'm not impressed! They are telling everyone their accounts are full. Is it ironic that I have had multiple friends post about it on facebook.  THen it used to be $5 for a year to get extra storage and now its over $2 a month.  So I had to shrink all my pictures even more so they may look a little more distorted.  not sure what I'm going to do.  So lame!

 

The day after Thanksgiving we went to get our tree. I've never gotten a tree so early but with Jesse leaving and Grandma here we decided to go. We went to the Big Red Barn and road the train.  Kade was so excited

Kade and Grandma deep in conversation.  I love how Kade's hands are so nicely in his lap.



It was a little wet but we were prepared. yeah for puddles

Trying to find the best tree.  We went for a douglas fir and they were all the same price so we had to find the best and biggest.

Kade helping cut down the tree.

I love this picture.  How many people does it take to cut down a tree??

Kade helping dad

Seth and I staying dry.  He wasn't feeling good and still isn't back to normal. Poor guy.



This time he really got to cut!

This is the little train we got to ride.  It started raining pretty hard by the time we were done.  But I'm glad we had a great time and what a fun family memory.

Sure do love this silly boy!

A picture

I am not a huge fan of blogger right now!  but here is one pic as i try to figure out what I have to do to upload pics on here without having to pay.  Grrrrr but such is life.  The quality isn't going to be great but hey i guess most people don't care.

Green Alien

Again I don't think I have to put words to these pictures. My little green alien is just too cute and thanks to the amazing Jill Johnson he has the sweetest beanie. When I looked at these pictures I couldn't believe how big Seth looks.  I think its about 8 months when babies don't look like little babies so much and more like little boys. I mean yes still babies but something changes I remember thinking the same thing not to long ago when I looked at Kade's pictures.

This is my favorite!

Woody

I don't think I need any words for the pictures below.  I have the cutest silliest Woody around

Trunk or Treat

I love these guys.  I love that we could get them all to dress up for the same movie.  Thank you Chloe for being Jessie at the last minute it was perfect.  I put on the trunk or treat for our ward this year because last year was pretty lame.  It was super easy to organize and turned out awesome.  We had over 40 families there.  Jill, Dri, Rex and Chloe came down for the fun. 
This year I decided to go easy for Halloween.  One because Kade doesn't like to dress up, he doesn't like stuff on his head (except hats) so since he is obsessed with Toy Story I thought Woddy was a great choice.  It turend out to be super easy.  Different friends let us borrow boots, and the Woody hat.  I got a white shirt from another friend dyed it and then used  a red sharpie to make the lines.  Super easy and kind of fun. I found the vest at good will for $3 and the hankerchief for a $1.  It doesn't get much better than that.
Seth's costume was super simple too.  Thanks to Jill and her amazing skills she whipped out the beanie in a half hour one afternoon while she was here. Turned out amazing!! then I found a long sleeve blue shirt  for $4 and flipped it inside out and put on a pair of his pants.  Now he has a new shirt and a new beanie that we can use over again.
I found Rex the buzz costume at goodwill for $6 and Jill made him the wings, and then she made Chloe's chaps and shirt.  I think we pulled off Toy Story super well this year.  I love that we as parents still have a say in what they wear.  I think that is going to end in a few short years.  Crazy how time flies.

More Halloween Pictures to come I just had to get this one up.
