Thankful

This child, (along with my others) everyday reminds me how thankful I am, she reminds me of my daily faith, that there is always a greater power and greater love for us. 

There has not been one day where we forget this. 

 And she is pretty cute and getting more and more personality.

I just got these hung up, pictures of the girls names and the the picture in the middle is the blanket that they brought little Geegers out to us in. 



Snow Globes

Dexter and Lucy made their own snowglobes with Sprinkles as Lucy likes to say. 

 They had fun and they turned out great.  Super easy.

Just go along with her, it makes more sense if you do

Funny Girl

Riverwoods

Christmas Lights, horse rides and Santa

 How many pictures do we have of Phoebe in Craigy's arms

 Dexter wants a Yoshi from Santa. 

Lucy was terrified of Santa and tells me everyday she does not like him and that he is "Icky"

 We went on a real horse ride, but they had this toy horse inside Blickenstaff. 

 I think Phoebe had a bit too much fun on this

 Isn't that the cutest smile so far of this little one

 

Precious

Phoebe is so stinkin cute, fun bugger and still can't believe she is ours. 

She loves this pillow, it goes everywhere with her. 

Decorations

Having kids are great, they did all the Christmas decoration and I sat and took pictures.

 Phoebe playing with Messani ornament we got a year ago on her blessing trip.  Cute!

Randoms

Boys have weird obsessions

 Phoebe loves suckers

Lucy is one hot mess

Black Friday

We weren't planning on the black Friday extravagenanca, we have done it every year for the experience but this year we killed it.  The Clark's said they were going and we said we would join along, we got out ads out and mapped out what to get,  We got 100% of everything for $5 a piece.  Christmas is done at our house.  The kids waited at their grandparents for us to finish, we got them home at 2 am.  The next day I was sitting on the floor putting away laundry and Lucy had made her a cozy spot and fell asleep for 4 hours.  Phoebe took 2 naps at 3 hours a piece. 

Cozy mornings

The girls always sit on Curtis this way.  Side by side. 

Phoebe and her do it again face

Liitle stuffers

Dexter and Lucy helped with Thanksgiving.  Lucy helped with every dish.  She loves to cook.  Here they are making stuffing, they even picked sage for me outside. 

Wisdom Teeth

Curtis got his wisdom teeth and one extra tooth pulled the day before Thanksgiving.  He has a very low pain tolerance level.  So he planned 5 whole days for recovery, canceled all his appearances and planned for the worst.  He recovered pretty well and kept the dramatics to a minimal. 

He was quite giggly coming out of it.

Pillows and blankets

The kids always have out blankets and pillows of every kind. 

They always end up like this every morning.  Cozy close kids

Bath time

I know bath pictures may not be appropriate these days, but I just love their skin color.

Sunday lunch

Here is a Sunday lunch that was hilarious.  So hyper and funny

You just have to see her in person to truly understand her

Swimming

Dexter just finished up another swimming class, he did great with his first attempt at Level 3.  He almost passed the class on his first go around.  I love all the activities he is always doing

Dragon Party

Dexter went to Kaitlyn's birthday party.  His little bud since primary began.  He got a dragon pony like stick.  Amazing party loot.

Trick of Treating

We did the usual trick or treating up at Lybberts' house.  We hit up
Brookshire Drive and Osmond lane.  Osmond lane is nuts, the place to be on Halloween. 

Lucy was hilarious, telling people they had a nice house, have a good night, thank you, BYE!
