Putting Up the Tree

Kade, Clint, and Anthony we all ready to help Grandpa and Grandma put up their Christmas tree. Grandpa was getting it out of the shed and before he knew it the boys were clumsily trying to carry it across the yard. Grandpa rushed to help and so Clint let him take over with Kade and Anthony.

Family Pics.

We were way overdue for a new family picture-- we haven't had one since way before Cole was born. These were nice but they weren't as crisp as we hoped. One day we'll get how to use the camera right. I'm just happy we have one that is decent and Cole is in it. He hasn't been in our family picture on our wall for the first 2 years of his life. Poor kid. :( I didn't take a picture of our Christmas cards before I'd sent them all but I used a couple of these pictures for them. The printing company took forever(over 3 weeks) so I didn't get them until after Christmas-- I thought I'd be on the ball this year but I guess not.

Thanksgiving

We spent the first part of the Thanksgiving break in Redmond. It was the "on" year for the Bosshardt's so most everyone was there-- except Greg and Wendy. :( The days were so fun with the cousins. We wish we lived closer so they could have fun together more often. After a few days of leftover turkey we went to Aurora for some time with my folks. They hadn't had "Thanksgiving Dinner" yet because all my brothers and sister weren't able to come before Saturday so we had another turkey dinner.

Whooo Whoooo

These two owls were in Neal and Marcia's tree this week. The kids had such a great time checking on them and looking for them each day.

Leaf Mountain

After turkey dinner everyone helped rake Grandma and Grandpa's yard. When it was done they got to enjoy the fun of the mountain of leaves. My favorite was Anthony plugging his nose when he got tossed into the leaves.

Serious Push-Ups

Uncle Kelby came to visit! The boys really think the world of their Aunts and Uncles, especially when they romp around with them. Kelby was doing push-ups and the boys hopped on for a ride. Cole couldn't miss out on the fun too but he kept falling off and so he ended up choosing to lay on Kelby's head instead. :D
