We have come right into the holiday season so quickly this year. The boys are super excited for Christmas. We put our tree up last weekend, the boys helped and had such a great time doing it. Chris put up the lights outside the house and the boys helped with that as well. We also painted our living room a few weekends back. My brother and sister came over and helped up the whole weekend. We were able to complete it in 2 days..it was such a relief to have it all back together before the Christmas Tree went up. The room looks great and I will post pictures as soon as I take some.
Thanksgiving was a blast this year. We had it at my mom's house. Our family and Chris's family went to my mom's house this year.. it was much easier and less hectic for us to only have to go to one house to eat. Everyone had a wonderful time and it was a time to be together and enjoy each others company.
We have been keeping super busy with basketball and the boys swimming....Chris has been having games 3 nights a week and practices 5 nights a week. This leaves me and the boys at home a lot...so we have been frequenting Fusion quite a bit. Owen has actually learned to swim underwater and that is all he does now... he get into the area where he can touch and just swims under water.. getting rings and everything. Peyton is still a bit hesitant to go under.. he hates the water in his face and has a hard time with it still . He will catch on eventually..it will come with time.
So, that is pretty much our last few months in a nutshell. We have been super busy and it will continue as the holiday season nears. We are so ready for Christmas this year.. the boys are super excited and Owen wants Santa to wake him up so he can hug him. Its so cute!
Here are just a few pictures that we have compiled over the past 2 months.. I will post more as I take them.. spec. of the living room and tree!
From our house to yours: Have a very Merry Christmas and a blessed New Year!
