Sweet Cheeks

At Thanksgiving everyone kept commenting on Owen's cheeks. They all said how they are so cute and all you want to do is squeeze them- Luckily, at the gathering there wasn't some freaky old unknown great Aunt somewhere, actually squeezing Owen's cheeks or better yet, wanting to wipe off something by licking her thumb and wiping his cheek- these are some crazy family memories, that all of us, I think can relate to in some way- or maybe, that was just my family???

I think I am in trouble.......

I woke this morning to a couple of little boys who I think were trying to break a crib- ok, maybe not, I think they were really just having a good time ; )

I have two rambunctious boys, I think I am in trouble.......

Happy Thanksgiving

We wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving and hope that everyone didn't eat too much turkey or pumpkin pie.

Jake got some new shoes he just loves to wear. They are very cute! They are not the real deal, but they are close enough. Uncle John, this post is for you !!! ; )

Autumn has left.......

Well, Autumn is now gone and winter is here...... the temps are cold and the heat is on . We are bracing ourselves for a long and cold winter......hopefully, snow will be here for the holidays and then it will be a mild winter from then on...... today we have been having some flurries on and off
Here are some last Autumn photos of the kids ..... Enjoy !

GO PACK GO !!!!

Ahhh, Sunday football! We are a Packer family - I am a fan by default really, but over the years, have embraced the Green Bay Packers. Today we are hangin' out, reading the Sunday paper, watchin' the game ( GB is ahead ) and watching the kids play, all while some light snow is falling- Winter is here. Have a great Sunday.

Peaceful

Seems like these days, we all need a place of peace or a place to reflect. Where is your place?

1st Snow

Earlier today, we had our first snowfall. I can not believe it is November already and that the holidays and winter will be here before we know it. Jake asked me if we could go sledding when he saw the snow. I had to explain that there needs to be snow covering the grass before we can go....... Soon enough, we will be getting his sled out!

Happy Birthday Rob !!!

Lately, things have been busy, busy around here. I have been meaning to post a pic of Rob's little birthday celebration. We celebrated it a day early and had cheesecake with candles- Happy Birthday !! XOXOXO

YES WE CAN

Wow- what a night................
I actually got chills when I heard that Barack Obama was going to be our next President. It was an exciting night indeed and we, both Rob and I, can only hope for a better future for our country.

These days...........

These days, this is Rob's Sunday NFL Ticket............
