Family Pics

On Thanksgiving we decided to have family pictures taken up at the Garff Ranch most of them turned out really cute!

Traditions #2

Earlier this month I posted about the Norwegian cookies and said there was more traditions to come. Well here is two. Every year at the first of December since we were all little kids we have gotten together and made gingerbread houses. I am not talking the wimpy graham cracker kind i am talking real baked gingerbread houses (well OK this year some of us cheated and bought ours) none the less they are the real thing. It has been so fun through the years to get together and do this we have all come such a long way with our creativity and ideas. Sometimes it becomes a serious activity but mostly we have a great time and go home with an awesome gingerbread house. Thanks Karilee for hosting again this year!!!

3 Months old

Well our little bundle of joy turned three months yesterday. I can not believe how fast time is going by and how big braxy is getting. He is smiling so much more and is even starting to giggle a little. He is still quite spoiled and wants to be held all the time but hopefully he will grow out of that soon. We are still trying to find a formula that makes him happy we are now using the Lacto Free from enfamil and we are adding rice to it, it seems to be making him a little better but it stains bad so if any of you seasoned mothers have some good stain removers for formula stains please share!!!

Black Friday and Merry early Christmas to us...Thanks mom and Dad!!!!

For the past few years my mom and i have braved the crowds and gone Black Friday shopping. This year we have an addition to our family my cute sister in Law Aubrey and she has been hearing about this for a year and decided to brave it with us a little reluctantly. As always we went through the ads Thursday night about 15 times to see what we needed mom called and said i really want to go to rc willey they had some good deals as doorbusters that she wanted to get us kids. She wanted to get scott and aubrey a couch and love seat and us a tv so she decided to go to rc willey at 5 and get in line. Meanwhile Aubrey, Ki and i were at Kohls at 4 and went from there. At 7:30 we headed to RC willey to join mom and we were successful. We got one of 10 40in hdtv's the couch and love seat and brook at I got a new kitchen table that was an awesome deal. Thanks mom and dad for the tv. As you can see we have been busy today getting it all set up and i just want you to notice who has the hammer!!!! Also notice what Brooks is already watching on his new tv!!

Thanksgiving

This year for Thanksgiving we went up to the Garff Ranch and had dinner with my Aunt and Uncle and their friends and the grandmas. It was a nice and relaxing time it was fun to just be together. Also we all kind of coordinated our clothes and did some family pictures while we were up there they turned out really cute when I get them back i will post some.
