Gingerbread & Tree Decorating

Kids decorated their gingerbread houses almost entirely alone this year! We have decorated them for the last 5 years and the really love this family tradition! Perhaps Hudson will get his own next year!

Kids decorating the Christmas Tree, even Hudson helped...he of course picked the glass ones!!

Fanny Packers!

Denny has this AWESOME fanny pack he uses for putting up the Christmas lights! It really is quite handy, he has extra bulbs and clips right at his fingertips or shall I say waist! Hannah decided to get hers out too...

Dirt Bikes & Quads

Denny took Hudson for a ride on the dirt bike and we couldn't get him off. Following in his brother and Daddy's footsteps! 100% boys!

Our newest rider~

Ethan LOVED the quad~

"Look, Mom no hands" Hannah LOVES the Quad too~

They both wanted one for Christmas, Santa had different plans...maybe next year!

Hot Air Balloon Rides & Picnics!

Spent a beautiful Sunday outdoors today, first visiting the Hot Air Balloon Festival where the kids got to experience a tethered ride. Then we headed to South Mountain for a picnic lunch.

They LOVED the ride~

It actually went pretty high~

Lunch overlooking the city~

Beautiful family day, I guess when isn't it a family day for us! xo
