Fam Time

This is a picture we took one evening when we were playing in Jason's room.

Jake being his wild self while Jason was at school.

Jason got this Darth Vader mask at his friend's birthday party and wanted to even sleep in it.

Hanging out with my men.

Our boys are just like Colin.... I love this pic.

Jason is quite the little helper and rocks when it comes to loading the dishwasher.

Jake thinks that Eskimo kisses involve biting my nose.

After traveling it was so exciting to get home and just spend time together. January came so fast.

Colin found a new passion.... duck hunting. He really does enjoy getting out on those crisp days.

As for me and the boys, we have been getting back into the swing of things. Jason was thrilled to get back to school and his friends. Jake and I have been utilizing those days Jason is gone to really bond. When Jason was a baby we had so much time to play and get to know each other. I am very thankful that I get the same time with Jake. My boys are amazing and make me laugh so hard.

Nothing too exciting has happend in this last month, but I sure do wish I could

slow down time.... Hope all of you are having a wonderful January as we are. Enjoy!!!

End of Dec and New Years

Jason prefered to shovel the yard, not the walks.

Jake helping shovel the walks.

The birthday celebration.

Jason wished for a Hulk toy when he blew out his candles. When I told him that the top of the cake was a toy.... his eyes lit up.... Amazing.

spending some time with the fam.

After Christmas we always prepare for a week of wild. This year we continued the tradition and celebrated. Our vacation was delayed one day by a huge storm, but we did eventually get to SD for our week long vaca. We met the fam and had a wonderful time.

Our first full day there we celebrated Grandpas birthday. It was so much fun and wonderful to see Grandpa and Grandma. On the 28th Colin and I celebrated 7 years of marriage. That night we hit Deadwood with Jen and Dave. It was a great time. Only two days later the celebration continued with our little Jason turning 4. It is so difficult to believe that he is getting so old. We welcomed the new year with open arms. Colin and I weren't able to stay up to the 12 mark, but we still had a wonderful time.

I can feel that great things will come this year. Each and every day is full of excitement and you never know what is next. Happy New Years to all of you!!!! I hope to visit more friends this year and spend more time with family. Now to get back into our routine. Enjoy everyone!!!!
