Deck the Tree!

So excited to decorate the tree!
Placing the star...

The stockings were hung by the chimney with care.

Teamwork

My Boys

This morning I went and picked out the tree and couldn't wait for Christopherto get home tonight to decorate! It's kind of one of the only things we truly enjoy doing together. I was going to do it last friday while he was gone and he got a bit offended! I'm glad I waited though. We had a great time. Logan was in on the fun too! If I have to say it myself I think we have a pretty good looking tree(nothing like Debby's of course!).

Newman Family Thanksgiving

Lovin him some Aunt Kate!

Silly Sofi!

Today was our get together with Nana Susan's side of the family. We had great food as always and good company too. We actually made it through dinner without a major catastrophe which is amazing. Christopher was missing but we did manage to get a family picture while Kristin and AJ were here.

Park Time With Auntie Kristin

Logan spent some time with Aunt Kristin at the park this afternoon. He showed her how we feed the ducks, throw the leaves and slide down the slide! Aunt K is so much fun!!!

The Howell Family Tradition

Today we went to the Aunt Helen's farm for the annual Thanksgiving get together. This is probably a little over half of the whole group...some were not able to attend. We also had a little shower from that side of the family for AJ and Kristin. A good time was had by all!

New Chair

Logan is soooo funny. It has been quite the trying couple of weeks...Daddy has been busy working overtime and also moving Grandma Lori closer to us and of course working on the truck! After taking it to the dealership for a diagnostic exam Daddy was finally the hero today and fixed the problem(saving us about $400). Yay, Daddy!

Logan loves this little wooden rocking chair pictured above. I had thought that one of my great grandpas had built it...come to find out my parents purchased it at Lords Acre(a church bazaar where donated items are sold to raise money for the church). They aren't sure who but know one of two men that could have made it. I loved this little chair growing up and it's so fun to watch Logan love it too!

Fall Zoo Day...

So we weren't really sure when we started out this morning if it was going to be warm enough for the zoo...forecast said 68...the truck said 40. But, by the time we had errands run the sun was shining so we set off for our favorite place!

Right after lunch Logan fell and bonked the side of his head pretty good. We thought we might have to leave but he came around. SO, we spent our time indoors at the jungle and the amphibian/reptile place...neither of which we have ever visited more than twice.

We are struggling with our vehicles right now. Prayers would be appreciated! Hopefully we can outlast this little hardship without wanting to hurt each other. Poor Logan is 0-90 these days. We are happy and content then we are throwing ourselves on the floor and screaming like a spoiled brat...no idea how that happened!

A Day At The Park

Here's my favorite pic of the day(I saved the best for last!)

Today we went to the park to do a photoshoot for a friend...butI just couldn't help but take some precious pics of my little darling...I swear I have the world's cutest kid!
