Christmas...

Its hard to believe it is over! I want to thank everyone for all of the thoughtful gifts this year for all of us--we are so lucky to have such great family and friends. Lets not forget the real reson for the holiday--I thank the big guy upstairs everyday for my family and life! We love all of you VERY much!

Here are some photos of some of the places we went for the holiday...we had a great visit in Akron with my mom's family but it was so much fun that I forgot to take any photos--thanks all from Akron--we miss you tons!


Christmas Eve at Josh's Mom's...what a great time at Grandma's house! Jackson LOVED hanging out with his cousin Dylan--they were the best of friends the whole visit! We miss you guys:( Thanks Jill for all of the awsome gifts!

Christmas morning at our house...well Jackson was so into Santa this year! Gavin could have cared less:) As you can see the boys got everything they asked for--Jacks got his purple guitar and big green truck and lots of other awsome boy toys!

Christmas at Josh's Dad's...Jacks was SO excited about his Rodeo stuff! He is having a lot of fun playing with it! Jackson loves the rodeo for those of you who don't know:) Gavin and Jacks got some great toys from them--good picks guys:)

Christmas at my Dad's...all jacks wanted from my Grandpa Jim was the Cars movie and as you can see he sot it!!! We had a great time visiting with my dad and brothers--love them all so much!

What a good looking family!

Fun weekend in Toledo...

Well first before we headed up north we had to get Gavin his 1st haircut and you can see how that went! :) He was not happy to say the least. Gavin hates to be messed with especially by someone he has never met--I may have to learn how to cut hair!

Friday night we had Christmas with Kelly, Jacob and Maddie in Bowling Green. We were able to see Maddie perform at her Christmas show for school and enjoy some play time at their house. Jackson loves Jacob and Maddie--talks about them ALL of the time! Thanks guys for all of the awsome gifts--miss you tons!

My parents are having some trouble with their tub downstairs so the boys had to have baths in the sink--they had a blast! These are two awsome shots of them getting water poured over them by Meme.

Saturday Jackson built some Gingerbread houses with Meme and Papa--had so much fun! Gaving just sat and watched--he did get a few scraps to munch on though. My parents are always thinking of cute things to do with the boys!

Saturday night we all went to Bass Pro Shop where Jackson got to practice his shooting--get ready Josh he may get a bigger buck than you:) Do you notice the color of his bow??? You can tell Josh was not with us.

Where is Jackson?

Boys...

Putting up his tree...

Jackson had a blast putting all of the ornaments on him and Gavin's tree last night! As you can see he wanted all of them on the top:)

Our first visit this year to Santa...NOT GOOD!

Happy late Thanksgiving!

Jackson wore this same bib two years ago on Thanksgiving:) As you can see Gavin loved Thanksgiving...of corse he would its all about FOOD! haha
