Feeding Time!

Dazzle wants to know if its time for breakfast yet?!

We ended up getting about 4 inches this weekend...it sure is pretty!

Taylor with Dirt and Trid...she helped me get the feeding done sunday morning.

In the background you can see Rock and Dazzle...

also Dahlia standing up on the fence,

she is starving as usual!!!

When feeding Dingo you have to sit with him or the goats will try to eat his food also.

He enjoyed having Taylor sit with him today.

That is our new horse barn you see in the back...it came together pretty well. The animals seem to enjoy it.

This is such a good dog!!

The kids love him and he sure does take care of his goats!

Hope you are staying warm this winter!!

Christy's birthday...

Well I had another birthday last week...

mom and dad came over on saturday to celebrate.

We went out to lunch and then came home for cake.

Mom made me an oatmeal cake (grandma's recipe) it is so good!

We also had a "regular cake" for the kids.

Mason was still not quite feeling well...so Taylor and Brody decided he needed to be covered in tissue paper!!

You can also see some of our snow out the window...

It snowed another 3 inches later that day.

Opening my present...

Mom and dad got me an awesome purse I have been wanting!

My birthday was actually on a wednesday and that morning I opened presents from Eric and the kids.

I got a digital photo keychain that holds 60 photos...pretty cool.

Also two candles that glow in the dark and change colors...interesting!

Cant believe Im 37 already...where did the time go?!!!

Just hanging out!

Here are a few photos just for fun...

This is Eric and Mason taking a saturday afternoon nap.

Mason had a little bit of a stomach thing going on for a couple days,

so daddy thought he should join him on the couch and keep him company.

Taylor and her sidekick, Sissy.

This was taken on a hayride....

We got together with our church family this fall and had a really good time.

I guess all the superhero playing wore them out!!

Wish you could hear the snoring that was going on!

Brody took these next two of Eric and I...

I know they arent very exciting,

but at least you get to see us!!:)

Eric chillin out....

Thanks for checking in with us!!

Christmas Time!!

We put our tree up the week after Thanksgiving.

This is a picture of Eric and Mason working on the lights.

Still working on the lights...

Brody is laying in the chair making sure they are doing a good job!!

Taylor is in the floor making a picture of the nativity scene.

The boys both ended up falling asleep on the couch while Eric and I were doing ornaments with a little help from Taylor.

Some of you know how crazy I can get with Christmas decorations...

This is our little tree by the front door. We call it the "snoopy tree"...

it is covered with charlie brown and snoopy that I have slowly collected from those little Whitman chocolate boxes...

This next tree is pretty special...it is decorated with Minnie and Virgil's ornaments (Eric's grandparents).

There are some really neat ones on there...some of them hand made by Minnie.

You can also see a few of our outdoor lights through the front window.

A close up of the fireplace with all the stockings...

The great room has the most decorations of course.

It usually takes me about 3 days to do the inside and front of the house.

Well worth it...the kids think its pretty cool!

There is quite a bit more but I cant show all of it in detail...

you would get incredibly bored!!!:)

Merry Christmas!!

Photo Shoot!

The boys have become quite the photographers. Brody especially likes to take my camera and walk around the house taking pictures of everything!!

I find some really interesting pictures on my camera sometimes!

Lately they have been taking pictures of each other in their costumes.

I am not sure who is who in these pictures.

Thought you all would enjoy these pics taken by the boys.

I probably should consider getting them their own camera for christmas?!

Are these pictures cute or what?!!
