Spending time with this guy.

Jerod took off a couple days before and after the holidays
{to spend time with us of course}

or...

to sleep in a bit,

fix/work on thing around the house,

AND

of course spend time with Mr. B

while I got some quality Mrs.Mom Being Alone time too!

The best was all of us snuggly on the couch for nap time :)

I like this guy.

A little bit ;)

DECORATING FOR CHRISTMAS!

It's my favorite time of year to decorate the house.

Although this year was a bit harder to get into the spirit because of the lack of snow!

Usually when it's a cold, blowing, snowy day...

is when I put up the tree and other fun holiday decor.

I LOVE my new runner

&

Pier One Christmas tree ornament holder!!
thanks mom.

7 day's till Christmas....

#7 fun post.

Today we had a very busy day filled with Christmas programs!

We started off going to first service,

a very unusual thing for us to be up and ready that early.

But since we went to bed early last night (yes, on a Saturday night)

we were up and ready to go by 8:30 to see Ellery & Calvin in the church choir and play.

Breck made it in church all the way up till the last 15 minutes when he tried to run up on stage to be with his cousins (time for dad to take him out!)

Then we came home, napped, then off to Ellery's first piano recital!

She did amazing.

and Breck,

we'll he did alright himself.

I have to keep reminding Jerod he does really well for a one year old :)

First thing we did when we got home was........

put on our comfy clothes!
Fix some food.

Then lounge the rest of the day.

With football blaring in the background.

Good day.

8 days till Christmas....

#8 fun post.

We have had fun spending time with these two cuties celebrating their December Birthday's!

One had a pool party (pic's to come...if her mom would post them ha)

And this lil' guy invited us to his first birthday!

Breck enjoyed playing with one of the little girl's things that was also at the party!

Pink bib, bottle, purse....

I think it's so funny...

Jerod, not so much!
