She's 2!

We got to celebrate my sweet niece's birthday this weekend! What a little blessing she is to our family!

The day Elizabeth Kay Hutcheson made an appearance into this world...

And her 1st birthday with her two grandmothers...

snow, snow, & more snow!

The snow has looked so pretty, but inside the house there was chaos! 2 boys that miss school, want someone else to play with other than their mom & brother, are sick of playing all day with the same toys and a mommy that is depserately wanting things back to normal too!

It did drive some change on the inside though... We said good bye to the red dining room! And turned it into an "antique silver" office!Look at the extra help I got!

And completed turning the once formal living room into the dining room!

December

We got to spend lots of wonderful time with family & friends this December. Really, what a great month we had! Here are my parents, my brother's family & our family visiting Santa.

Luke very intently letting santa know what was on his list...

He came!!

snowman pancakes on our white Christmas!Michael's family visiting at New Years.

Halloween for me was always about the candy... I didn't even like dressing up. Then I got too old to trick or treat and now I just don't want all the junk in my house! Nevertheless, the boys were excited to dress up (because they do it all the time!) and we set out on our inagural trick or treating venture. We ended up having a blast! I am not sure if I had more fun or the boys! Here are some pics...

family weekend

We kept my niece, Elle, this weekend & enjoyed her so much! She always had a smile on her face and I think she really enjoyed her 2 older cousins playing with her! Uncle Michael loved having a girl around - he got some extra hugs and attention too!

some fun filled days

One final birthday hooray!!

another birthday boy!

Luke turns 3 tomorrow (well, he actually already thinks he is 3 because we had a firetruck party). This boy is full of life, looks up to his brother and loves his family so much! He's into tools, trucks, sports and pretty much anything else Jacob will let him get his hands on...
