Our Happy Thanksgiving!

We had such a wonderful Thanksgiving weekend, it was wonderful and very busy! We have so many reasons to be thankful for and are grateful for our many, many blessings.

My Little Blessings

We spent Thanksgiving here in Colorado with my family, Seth's brother Mark and his family, and Seth's sister, Mary. Thursday was such a nice day. Dinner was AWESOME!, the Broncos won, and it was nice to spend time together.

We also did a lot of fun activities over the weekend. For the first time ever I got up and went shopping for Black Friday deals. It was kind of fun and I got all my shopping done!

Some of the other things we did was go to Monkey Business, Build-A-Bear, The Denver Aquarium, Watched A Christmas Carol, Went to A Nuggets game, and went out to eat.

Ethan loved having his own tour guide! Ethan loved having Mary show him how to play the guitar while she was here.

We are very exhausted after doing all those fun things. But hopefully we created memories that our children will always remember!

We just found out that Seth passed his 2nd CPA test!

Congratulations, Seth!

Monday Night Football

On Monday we had a Monday night football party to cheer on our Broncos. They have been doing so well so it was too bad when they lost. We had family and friends over and had lots of good food and fun until the Broncos got beat. Oh well, there is always next week, right?

We put up my parents big Bronco blow up guy all day. The kids were so fascinated with him. I even had to go out and buy Ciara her very own Bronco jersey as she was the only one in our family that did not have any Bronco gear. I think she looked so stinkin' cute all dressed in pink. She was so excited to wear a jersey like her brother and to be the center of attention.

We had a fun night of football and family, and can't wait until next time!

Happy Halloween!

We had such a great Halloween! Both Ethan and Ciara were both old enough to enjoy Halloween this year. Ciara was a Princess Fairy and Cinderella, and Ethan was Optimus Prime! Since we went to two ward's trunk-or-treats, a preschool party, and Halloween the kids really got good use out of their costumes and I got a lot of pictures of them in them.

The Leader of the Autobots!

My Pretty Princess Fairy!

Ethan loves transformers and wanted to be Optimus Prime. He wore his costumes almost everyday! I loved that he was so excited about what he was for Halloween. Ciara's main costumes was a princess fairy but then it was so cold on Halloween, see all of the snow we got, I dressed her really warm and put her Cinderella dress over all her clothes and it worked great!

Ethan and Ciara were so excited to go trick-or-treating and caught on really fast. They would go right up to the door, even if it had scary things around, knock and say trick-or-treat. They were so big that they just went door to door practically by themselves. They just wanted to keep going and going. It was finally 9 pm and most people had their lights off and the kids still wanted to keep going. Even Ciara wanted to do more and more and more! The got so much candy and they are not even big candy eaters!

We had such a great Halloween with our children and enjoyed their enthusiasm and love for life!
