It's Beginning to look a lot like Christmas...

Meet George...He is our Elf on The Shelf!He's been watching Mack to make sure he's been good for Santa. Mack has been very concerned about what George might say to Santa...until this week!!! Now he just says, "George can't see" It was good while it lasted. LOL
The Big Tree


Our Snowman Tree


And of course Mack's Tree


Mack picked out all the decorations by himself and placed them too. He said that Santa had to go in the middle because the tree needed a centerpiece. Looks like he's learned a little from his Mom!!!

A Visit with Santa...

Obviously Mack was a little nervous because all he told Santa he wanted this year was a race car...Too bad at home he wants every toy commercial... And I'm serious !!!!

So Grateful...

Thanksgiving is an important time to reflect of all the many blessings we have been given. I have had a lot of time to do so without Mack this weekend. It was our first holiday away from each other and a difficult one for me. But I am so grateful for the opportunity to be a Mother. I have the incredible opportunity of being home with him each day and being able to learn and grow with him. We have shared so many great memories together and I truly cherish each one.
This year has been a growing year for us. We both have grown so much and have had to rely on a lot of Faith to get us through. Faith that there will be a better tomorrow. I truly believe that there is something bigger and better out there just waiting. That if we continue to live our lives the best that we can we will be blessed. And we have so much already. We are so lucky to have family close and so involved in our lives. We have had so many fun adventures and Mack has learned so many new things.
This Thanksgiving is a season of gratitude.
Feeling so grateful!

Happy Halloween

Mack had a great time trick or treating this year! He thought his costume was so great and was so proud that his hair was long enough to not have to wear a wig. I think his favorite part of the night was showing his Grandma all the scary stuff at peoples homes and of course the candy. He got a huge Halloween basket from Auntie and Uncle B and Grandpa Dan and Debbie Stinson came by to give him treats! He is so loved... This year he wanted to be something really SCARY!

Grandparents Day

Of course Mack had the most grandparents there out of his whole class, even though he was still missing a few! It was a really special day. He got to spend time with his grandparents
and show them what his preschool life is all about!
He even made the Grandmas their designer noodle necklaces.
His face shows just how proud he was...
