Holidays 2012

Disneyland for thanksgiving


 Christmas tree farm, both boys found a tree the same size as them and tried their hats on the trees.  We rode ponies, walked on the candy cane trail and cut our own tree.

A trip on the polar express, Grant was still not interested in sitting on Santa's lap.  


Christmas morning

Grant's birthday...He didn't want a birthday and didn't want to turn 4 but he seemed to have a good time anyway.

October Photo Dump

It's been a busy month...blogging was not so high on my list of things to do.

Spencer's class took a fieldtrip to the pumpkin patch.  It was wet and muddy.  

We went to a wedding in Nebraska and got to catch up with friends. 

And of course...We trick or treated.

See the field in the distance...we did a lot of walking.

Grant thought it was a bit loud.  

My favorite picture!!!  Home of the 12th Man indeed!
