Nate's Birthday

Is it weird that I feel old even on Nate's birthday? I guess I am just always blown away at how fast time flies. He loves cookies and anything chocolate, so his "cake" is made up of a huge, thick, round chocolate chip cookie on the bottom, cookie dough ice cream, and crumbled cookies and chocolate on top. It was a little too much 'cookie' for me, but he liked it! 

Isaac's Birthday Party

Isaac had some of his friends over for a train party when he turned 3! He actually had a blast and loved all the attention, and he had been looking forward to it for a while beforehand. We used black tape for a railroad track on the floor, and got all of Isaac's trains out for the kids to play with. The kids also decorated their little cardboard "train" to use on the railroad tracks and to take home. For lunch we had pizza - Isaac's favorite. I sometimes feel bad since his birthday is on Christmas, but when it actually rolls around, he pretty much gets a week long celebration because everyone tries to overcompensate! So the poor kid is not so poor after all :)

Merry Christmas

I don't have a ton of pictures from Christmas.. Somehow I forget to take pictures in

 the midst of all the excitement. Therefore, here are some from around Christmas time.

Family Pictures

I love getting family pictures done! I take that back actually.. I love getting the pictures afterwards, the actual taking of pictures is not super fun. I just love seeing great pictures of our boys that we can keep forever. My awesome friend took these for us, so if you need a photographer, I know a good one :)
