Halloween.. in April!

Halloween is one of my very favorite Holidays! Derek and Coop really like it too! This year Derek picked to dress up as the Red Power Ranger, and Coop was Mike from Monsters Inc. I love these cute boys so much!

 We also had a lot of fun at the pumpkin patch picking out pumpkins!


Hmmm...I think we'll go make pumpkin cookies now, even though it's April, haha!!

Holidays!!

We love Holidays! It's so fun to sort of "forget" about the ordinary things we do every day and celebrate! We love having fun times together and Holiday are always sure to bring lots of fun times!

We love Halloween! Here is Derek carving his own pumpkin! ...I have a lot more Halloween pictures, but I can't find them! Hopefully I can find them and post them...before next Halloween, haha!

 We were so excited to have a real Christmas tree this year! It smelled so good!!
 Letters to Santa!
 We always put our letters to Santa in the "elf mailbox." One of Santa's elves takes our letters and leaves a small surprise for the boys!
 Decorating a gingerbread house!
 Christmas morning!! I love those sweet, smiling faces!!
 My favorite boys with our dog Luna! Derek has wanted a dog for so long, and we kept telling him we would get a dog when we had a house! As soon as we moved into our house he asked us: "When are we getting a dog?" haha! We got two doggies as part of our family Christmas present!
 New Years Eve! We started a new tradition this year: A New Year's Tree! ( I got the idea from Our Best Bites!) We decorated it with balloons and crepe paper and the boys thought it was so much fun to pop the balloons and find money inside some of them!
 Another new tradition: Time capsules! We had a lot of fun making these and I think the boys will have so much fun opening them this New Years eve!

 Our family! Coop thought we were doing a "funny face" picture! Oh, and here is our other dog Phineas too!
