Merry CHRISTmas!

From our family to yours.....

"But the angel said to them, "Do not be afraid. I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people. Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is Christ the Lord."
Luke 2:10-11

Family Night

On Saturday we took the kids out for family night. We have never taken them bowling so we thought it would be a great thing to try. Needless to say, the loved it! We had a great time. It was great to get out & not think about the Holiday craziness for a few hours :)

Ryan's ready...

1...2...3.... go!

Lexie was a natural

She was so proud of herself.

Daddy

See, the do love each other ;)

Catching up.....

I am sooo behind on my blogging, but the reason is good. God has really Blessed us this year because I have been swamped with orders. So every night I have been up to the wee hours of the morning sewing my little patootie off!

Things have finally settled down so I can finally catch up on my blogging (and my wrapping).

Anywho, I thought i would start with the pics from Thanksgiving. Early in the day we went to my in-laws house to spend some time with Louie's family. It is always nice to see everybody, we don't get to see them quite enough. After that we headed to my parent's house to spend time with my family. I am so thankful that we were able to spend the day with all of our loved ones.

Halloween Party 09'

I know it's a little late, but i wanted to tell you about the Halloween Party we went to this year. My cousin Eric and his wife Shannen throw a party every year. And let me tell you, it is so much fun! This year was extra special because my cousins Janina (from Hawaii) and Felix (from Florida) were visiting and were able to attend for the first time!

Halloween 2009

We had a wonderful Halloween. The kids loved their costumes and we had a great evening.

Lexie was a 50's girl.

Ryan was Wolverine.

He's such a ham.

We went to our Church for the annual Hallelujah Celebration where we met up with my sister and niece and my cousin's family. The kids had so much fun playing the games and jumping in the bounce house.

After that we came back to our neighborhood and did some trick or treating.

This was our favorite house ;)

The lady was so sweet!

After a long day the kids were happily exhausted. I may or may not have raided their candy bags before I went to bed. (shhhh, don't tell anyone)
