'tis the season...

to be BUSY!!  A few of the latest happenings at our house...

 My biggest boy turned 18.  And yes, it is surreal to think I have a child who is eighteen!

Logan's soccer team took second place in a tournament over Thanksgiving weekend!

Sarah was a cute "Frosty the Snowman" in her dance recital!

Jason (my baby boy) turned seven!!!

The Elf on the Shelf arrived at our house (we're newbies to this tradition).  Here he is, lifting some weights.

How cute is this pup?  (Doesn't she look like she posed for this?)  This is my parents new St. Bernard pup, Heidi.  We are babysitting her for a few weeks.  Don't let her innocent face fool you.  Ha!

And, despite my good intentions of having a professional family portrait done this year, I ended up snapping some shots of the kids in front of an old Sinclair gas station.  (P.S. The kids really weren't as happy as they might appear for this photo shoot.)
