Not Much New With Us

It seems like we have been nothing but busy but I can't seem to think of anything we have done that really stands out.

We had a good Thanksgiving weekend. My mom was able to come to town again so that is always nice to be able to spend time with her. She flew in on Wednesday, we had Thanksgiving dinner at my Grandma Pat's, the rest of the weekend we mostly spent trying to get a lot of our Christmas shopping done, and then she went back on Monday leaving a big box of gifts for the kids for 27 Days of Christmas. That's right, we don't do just the traditional 12 Days at our house. Not with my mom involved anyways. The kids are really enjoying it. Thanks mom!

Since then we have just been doing the day to day things while trying to get ready for Christmas. Bradyn has started working on the basement a little again while keeping busy at work. And I don't seem to have many spare moments with work, running Peyton around to school and dance, Houston has turned into a wild man, and we have been watching the National Finals Rodeo on tv every night for the last 9 nights. I have enjoyed it, but am looking forward to something else to put my attention on at nights after tomorrow.

I am usually really good about snapping pictures, but when I pulled out my camera to take these pictures of the kids today I had to blow off dust. Enjoy! I thought they turned out pretty cute even with my not so fancy camera. I had to make sure it still works in time for the busy next couple weeks with parties and the holidays.
