Happy Holidays


 We love spending time with our cousins!!
 This photo melts my heart!
 Holiday Parade

 Making a marshmallow Olaf snowman!
 Barnes and Noble Polar Express Storytime!
 Yipee!!  Our tree is done :)


 The Lights Before Christmas at the Toledo Zoo!!
 Snow Queen Storytime at the Waterville Library with Callie's friend Maizy!

 Well looky here!  We ran into the Elf on the Shelf at the bookstore!
 Hams!

Daniel's Preschool Christmas party!  
I think I want to teach preschool after watching their little program :)

Christmas is Coming!

We had a great time at the Santa breakfast that Granite City puts on!  Live music, raffles, a yummy breakfast, and a personal visit from Santa Claus!  Doesn't get much better than that!  We are so thankful that our parents could join us too!!




Making reindeer nose treats are perfect for my little helpers!  They are so easy and super kid friendly!  Luke's little hands unwrapping the Hershey Kisses were precious!!!  Time, please stop at any moment! My babies are getting entirely too grown up for my liking :(




Chi-town Fun

Dan and I enjoyed another anniversary weekend get-a-way in Chicago this year!  We decided to stay at my sisters new place and bring Callie along to play with her cousins and soak up some girl time too!  Tara, Harper, Callie, Marlowe, and I enjoyed a delicious brunch at the American Girl store where Harper and Callie borrowed one of the  "loaner dolls" (I just can't pull the trigger yet on purchasing a new one).  It was the cutest little girl brunch EVER and the food was delicious!  I would highly recommend it for anyone who has a little girl and may be in Chicago!!!








 Watch out Chicago!




 Callie and Harper on the train ... all giggles!


 Watching some shows with the Junga boys!

Dan ran his first 5K, the Maumee Holiday Hustle!  He did super and we were excited to be there to cheer him on!  


Luke and Harper waiting for the parade to start after the race!
 Daniel and I enjoyed a date to Waffle House and Mickey Mouse Live!  He was so excited but said he wished his whole family could have come :)  I cherish this one on one time!

 Little Boo at the Toledo Zoo!


Luke's first bounce house!  He loved it :)

 Trick or Treat at the Fallen Timbers mall with our cousins!!
Trick or Treating in the neighborhood on Halloween was cold, wet, and rainy!  Yuck!  Bad weather couldn't stop these little troopers (or their Dad who had the golf cart cover on and a heater inside going)!
 Breakfast at our favorite place ... Mayberry Diner!!
 These little helpers LOVE doing laundry with their Mom!  Speaking of laundry, I don't want their little white undershirts to get any bigger, ever!  Someday I know they will be just as big as their Daddy's clothes and it already makes be want time to stop!

 Callie's Fall celebration her preschool ... too cute!!

Daniel passing the time as he waits for his school bus in my classroom!  He LOVES the SmartBoard!
