It's Christmas Season!

Well I love Christmas and all of the fun decorations!  We got back late Saturday afternoon from our trip and decided we would decorate and go get the Christmas tree on Sunday!  Benjamin is loving all the Christmas lights and enjoyed hanging the star on the tree! 

Cheers to kicking off the fun holiday season!

Haning the star!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Well this year we have a lot to be thankful for!  We were able to spend Thanksgiving week in Maui with the entire family and we had a blast!  Benjamin did a great job on the plane ride, adjusting to a 4 hour time difference, and just overall adapting to a whole new place!  Since KU was playing in the Maui Invitational, Benjamin got to meet Big Jay in person....it was pretty funny!  Other than that, we played in the pool, played at the beach, ate lots of fresh fruit, and went on a ton of walks!  Here are some fun pics from the week!

We hope that you all had a great turkey day!

Happy Halloween a little late!

Benjamin had a great Halloween!  He really enjoyed pulling the candy out of the bowl and then placing it is in his pumkin.  He would continually stop and dump it out and then put it back in.  Needless to say we did not make it very far, but we had a great time.  He did great in his costume and he mastered the "mooooooo"!

Checking out my treats!

First Haircut

Well a couple of weeks ago we went for Benjamin's first haircut!  We finally decided to the bite the bullet and get rid of the mullet...he was starting to look a little too shaggy :)  The place was great and Benjamin sat in a yellow Jeep to get his haircut.  He was a little unsure about the whole thing, but we all made it through.  He looks like such a big kid now!

All ready!



The mullet is gone!!!!
