Getting Our Christmas Tree!

Last night, we took the boys out to dinner and then to the Christmas tree lot. I don't remember the last time I saw Blake so excited and happy. He absolutely loved it. He was so cute and kept saying "Daddy, Mommy...look at this beautiful tree" He wanted to bring home a small one that he picked out but we ended up with an 8 footer:-) Once we got home with it, Blake was daddy's helper. Blake got the water for the tree stand, helped sweep up the leaves that had fallen, and even got Brian a glass of water all on his own. When he brought Brian the water, Blake said, "Dad, are you sweating...I am" Too cute!

Once the tree was up, we all started decorating. Cade loved playing with the ornaments and Blake loved looking at all of the ones we had and helping put them on the tree. We listened to Christmas songs and had hot coco. It was a night to remember!!!

Thanksgiving!

We have so much to be thankful for...our health, happiness, family, friends and much much more. Personally, I am so thankful and blessed to have Brian, Blake and Caden in my life. They make me happier than I could ever imagine. Brian does so much for our family and works hard every single day to give our family the special life that we live. I love you so much Brian and can't imagine my life without you. You are also an amazing and deciated father and our boys are incredibly blessed to have you. Blake and Cade bring so much joy and happiness into my life and I love them with all of my heart!

On Thanksgiving, we went to Nana and Grandaddy's house along with Jack, Susan, their 4 kiddos, mom, dad and Chel. It was a fun and special night with family and a perfect Thanksgiving! Oh, and wait until you see how my mom showed up...priceless!!
