It's Christmas Time - Trimming the Tree 2012

Friday, November 30, 2012
Christmas time is finally here, I wait so patiently throughout the year, and I get a little too excited to put up the decor and Christmas tree.  This year was no different.  The tree was up the weekend after Thanksgiving, hot cocoa on the stove and Christmas music filtering throughout the house ... ahhh ... bliss!

This is the first year I didn't buy any more ornaments and I am SO glad I didn't.  I couldn't event use all the ones I had.   Still love my real trees!






Cheers!

Thanksgiving with the Imhoff's 2012

Tuesday, November 13, 2012
At our house, setting up is something that is done at least a month in advance.  We bring out all of the boxes, and start decorating to taste.  This year, the kids were able to help with our family Thanksgiving Tablescape. It seems like each year we add something just a little different, and this year was no exception.  I love the rustic warmness it creates, and I can't wait to sit down on Thanksgiving and enjoy it to it's full potential!








Unlike last year, we will not be hosting Thanksgiving this year, which I am a little bummed about.  Oh well, at least I'll keep a clean kitchen :)

Imhoff Halloween 2012

Friday, November 2, 2012
 Oh what fun Halloween was this year! 

I would have to say that this was the first year when both kids really "got it."  They each had their individual Halloween parties at school, which meant they both got to wear their costumes instead of the usual school clothes.  I also got to go to attend each of their parties, which makes me SO thankful for having a flexible schedule.  [Thanks Hubby!]

Since most years we have stayed around our neighborhood, I thought it was time to head up my parents house's and let them see the kids on Halloween this year.  SO glad I did.  We grabbed dinner out on our way, and headed to my parents neighborhood.  It was crazy to take the kids trick-or-treating to the same places I used to go to on Halloween.  Really Crazy!  In fact, really crazy that a lot of the people still live in the same house.  Years ago they were handing me candy, and now they are seeing my kids do the same thing.  It felt like home for sure!







Braeden was a Top Gun Fighter Pilot.  We was SO handsome in it!  And our Bear was a fireman, which he adored.  Now we just have to figure out what to do with all of this candy.  What do you all do?  Keep it, save it? Throw some out?  One things for sure, we're not eating it all!! :)

Happy Halloween!
