Thanksgiving time!

We got hit with lots of snow right before thanksgiving, thank goodness we had no travel plans.  We enjoyed our time at home.
My kids love shoveling snow.  Daddy went to the turkey bowl and had shoveled before he left but the kids said it needed to be done more.
Korbin could shovel all day if we let him.  Keep that desire boy!
After shoveling the kids got to play with their friends!
I of course made them take a picture together :)
This year was our first year having thanksgiving at home.  I made my first turkey and it was actually tasty :) We found out that Jason's parents werent going anywhere so we invited them over and had a fun time.
Yummy turkey!
It wasnt a huge meal but we all got stuffed.  It was fun pulling out my great grandma's beautiful china! 

I usually go black friday shopping but this year I did it all online, it was great.  We did end up hitting petsmart after we adopted our newest family member...
The next day the humane society was doing free pet adoptions.  We had been talking about getting Daisy a friend so we went a picked out Donald,his name was chosen by our kids. lol
We also celebrated Thanksgiving with Jason's side that day.  It's always fun to get together with them, these two cutes seem to agree.
Kaezli LOVES Donald!
Donald had to stay at the humane society until he was fixed a few days later so we had some visits to go see him.
We were so excited to bring him home.
She gets that huge Grin on her face everytime she sees him.
my little chefs....They really wanted me to try their food...
Can I just say how much I love where we live? One day the boys noticed that our neighbors were having sleigh rides and next thing I knew I had a text inviting the boys to join them.  They loved it!
Korbin
and Kyler.  I wish I could have got close enough to see their smiles, they had so much fun!
Kyler insisted that he needed a picture with daisy...I'm lucky to get all three kids looking and then they add a dog.
Kaezli loves her ice cream.
My little brother, Trevor,  came to visit over thanksgiving and my phone went on the fritz so the only pictures I have were when we went bowling.  Kyler started begging to go bowling with Uncle Trevor as soon as he heard Uncle Trevor was coming to visit.  We all had a fun time.
twinner cousins.
Korbin only wanted to bowl like twice but he loved cheering everyone on.  Kyler would have bowled for everyone if he had the chance. We definitely need to go again.
My favorite daddy/daughter duo! 

Beginning of November

Look at me, behind again....I think my new years resolution will be to keep this blog more updated.  :)
November has always been my favorite month, I may be biased with it being my birthday month but it always seems to be a fun family filled month :)
We counted down the days until Kaezli joined nursery because she loved to entertain our primary class! Such a silly girl.
One day the boys decided they were tired and made beds on the couches.
Korbin made sure to get mom and dad's blankets and pillows.
You would not believe how many shoes were ruined as the boys slid down the driveway on their motorcycles!
Kaezli loves being outside!
Family game night, Kyler is an awesome cheerleader!
Korbin always has to roll a three
and Kaezli thought she needed to just keep spinning the spinner.
How I love this sweet girl, when we wait for the boys' bus outside she would grab my hand and take me on a walk.  
Our thankful pumpkin :) too bad I didnt get a picture after november was over.
We enjoyed playing outside every chance we could!
Big brothers are the best!
Lunch dates with daddy are our favorite!
We love family movie night!
Kaezli stole mommy's drink!
My birthday was on Monday this year and My amazing hubby surprised me and started the celebrations the saturday before.  We started off the day with a small hike and family picnic up the canyon.
Kings of the rock!
We had so much fun!
Then we went to the grand reopening of the budge clinic, we were trying to win a trip to Disneyland (sadly we didnt) but we had fun with all the activities they had.  We got so much free stuff and really enjoyed checking out the facilities.
Bean bag toss.
Beat the fatty foods.

That night we went on a double date with Derek and Kirsten.
We of course went to my favorite place, I love Kabuki!
And then went bowling where the boys enjoyed watching some football! lol
I lost but had so much fun!
I got spoiled on my birthday. :) I love sweet surprises from family.
It's hard to tell but Kaezli is pushing her brothers towards the bus.
We of course had a lunch date with daddy.
Then we had dinner at formosa with family, it was awesome!
Then I got a birthday treat (which wasnt such a treat) but it snowed for the first time this year on my birthday.  Kaezli would not let go of this snowball and got mad when I took it away to go inside.
Everyone decided to throw snowballs at the birthday girl :O
The next morning we of course had to head out first thing in the morning and play in the snow.
and then they just wanted to go back inside. lol
Kaezli is a climber and loves to get on the table....

We of course had to check out the park one final time.
We were the only ones there.
But they loved it.
And there are days where I've had enough and dinner is cereal and I let them watch tv while they eat.
Sneaky kids found their halloween candy and were stuffing their mouths before mommy found them.
One time I was adventurous and took my kids to the movies by myself....it will probably forever stay just that one time!
