JD is 4

Can you believe it, JD is now 4. We got together and celebrated his birthday with both sides of the family. It was a lot of fun. We gave him a tool set and JD also got a bike for his birthday and was very excited for it. He got on and rode around the gym. He did pretty good too. My how kids grow.

Christmas Decoration

I was very excited to put up our Christmas decorations this year, they were all new. I went out last year the day after Christmas and got over 200 dollars worth of decorations for only 50 dollars. I got ornaments, ribbons, garlands, pretty much new of everything. Mom helped me tie the ribbons, but the rest of it was all me. I loved putting it all together.

New recipe

I ventured a new recipe and they all told me it looked so good that I had to take a picture of it. It does look really good, if I do say so myself.

Wedding

Ben's younger sister, Beth, was married Nov 18th. She asked Gabbi to be a flower girl and she loved it. Both her and Cloie had a blast. They even got to carry their on bouquets. I felt bad because during the ceremony Gabbi and Cloie started to use their bouquets as swords and kind of had a sword fight. I tried really hard to get her to behave, but you can't help a two year old sometime. The wedding and reception were both very nice and Gabbi did have fun playing with Cloie and Ellie at the reception.

Owen's first Pictures

We did Owen's pictures as well. Here are a few of my favorites.
