Merry Christmas!

If you didn't get one in the mail, it's because I didn't send them! We hope everyone has a wonderful season, Merry Christmas!!!

Annie- our new dog!!!

Meet Annie, our new dog! She is a 6 year old black lab mix. She is such a sweetheart and we already are in love with her! Shae wants to be on top of her and in her face always. So when Annie is outside, Shae usually sits right by the window. We've caught her giving kisses and reading to her through the window! Thank you, thank you, thank you to Brandon for letting us keep her! He loves her too! Tongues out! The story: I've always wanted a dog. Brandon loves dogs but had concerns with having one and it was never a good time. Our kids LOVE dogs. Well, we found out that my cousin was moving across country and couldn't take their dog with them. They were trying to find a good home for her and wa-la! It was such an easy decision after having her stay with us! She is so well trained, so good with kids and people, and loves to play but is happy to just hang out. As long as I don't think about how sad her old family is to say good-bye, I'm so happy to have her!!! YEAH, I finally have my own dog! Thank you Rich and Natalie for letting us have Annie and for training her so well!

Family Fun Fair

Dax's school had a family fun day. They put big bouncy houses and slides in the gym and let everyone at it. The kids loved it! Dax probably went down that slide 50 times. What a workout to climb, but worth every bit!

More Crazy Shae

Shae is so entertaining and I can't resist capturing those moments on film. So, here's some more. Here she is supposed to be napping:

More silly dress ups :)

Halloween!

Introducing, Raggedy Ann and Raggedy Andy! Dax and Shae loved their costumes! They have been playing with the dolls at their grandmas lately so were excited to see themselves all dressed up. They also both got the hang of trick-or-treating this year and loved getting so many treats! Here's some pictures with some of Dax's friends and teachers at his school parade. Happy Halloween!
