Fall Family Pictures

We had our annual family pics taken in October by my wonderful friend, Katie Cole, with Katie Cole Photography.  Loved the setting and beautiful colors! 

 (sorry katie....i was going to use the watermarked images, but i can't get the cd to work...)

Hudson insisted on wearing the sunglasses. :-)

All the boys. :-)

Love this one!

NYE 2012

We had a fun New Years Eve with some of our closest friends.  We had a great time eating, hanging out, laughing and playing Taboo.  Thanks to the Hipps for hosting!  We ended the night around 10:00 and headed home to ring in the New Year.  The boys actually stayed up for the ball drop this year, so we made a big deal about it so they would be excited. :-)  So thankful for wonderful friends to spend our night with and for all the many blessing 2012 brought.  I just pray that 2013 is even better for us all!  

(Thanks Rachel for remembering your camera and taking these pics!)

The guys....Eric, Josh, Brett & Michael

The girls....Leslie, Me, Jennifer & Rachel

The kiddos (minus Avery)....Gabby, Aubrie, Reagan, Lily, Peter, Carter & Collin

Last Day with the Boxley's

We were sad to see Tim, Julie, Syd and Ethan go.  We had so much fun with them and the boys just loved playing with them.  We went by to wish them farewell.  Maybe next time we can go to Colorado to visit them!

Christmas at Me-Ma & Pa-Pa's

We had Christmas at the farm on Friday, the 28th.  The boys just couldn't wait until Saturday.  They were way too excited, so we just let them go for it on Friday night.  We had a great time and great food thanks to my mom and dad's new electric smoker.  Yummy smoked turkey and brisket. :-)  It actually snowed a little that day too, so that was exciting even though there wasn't enough to really play in.  

The Landreth's got the boys some Xploders guns!

Carter got a Leap Pad from Me-Ma and Pa-Pa.  He loves it!

We got Hayes a new tractor like Pa-Pa's. :-)

Collin got the new Skylanders game for the Wii.  He has had a blast playing with that.  It's really neat. 

Christmas at Mimi & Papa's

Christmas afternoon, we headed to Mimi and Papa's for Christmas with them and the Boxley family.  We had a great time and were very blessed with some wonderful things!

Uncle Joe and his new hard hat

The Boxley's got the boys official Broncos football uniforms with shoulderpads and all!  They loved them!

 Mimi had planned a fun scavenger hunt around the house for the kids to find their last gift.....new headlamps!  The kids had a blast playing with those in the dark.  

sweet cousins. :-)
