It's Beginning to look alot like Christmas

I absolutely love Christmas it is my favorite time of the year!! We had a little Christmas party complete with Christmas music and gingerbread houses! So Ramz has never completely shared my love of Christmas but now that our kids are getting older he seems to be getting into the holiday spirit. Last night he popped popcorn made a fire ( we have a real wood fireplace and I LOVE it) made some hot chocolate and we watched a Charlie Brown Christmas. I have yet to make him fall in love with the movie White Christmas but I will continue to try, it is my favorite. "Snow- Snow- Snow- Snow- Snooooow"( You have to know the tune for that to make sense)
I think my favorite Christmas movies are

1- White Christmas
2- A Muppet Christmas Carol (love it)
3- Christmas Vacation
4-A christmas movie (the leg lamp one)
5-It's a wonderful Life
6-Home Alone (what I do)
7-How the grinch stole Christmas
8-Elf

I don't know if they are in the right order but I just love Christmas movies!

Seriously this kid drives me crazy he will be smiling and laughing and the second I get the camera out he looks down, Anyway he had fun decorating.

I made this hat for Lily while on the phone with Jade so she wanted to see a picture...Kinda funny but whatever
And I was so excited to fit her hair in Pig Tails Yeahhhh!! So we can't be home for Christmas and I am so sad but we get to go to Mike and Shannon's house in Ontario (only 8 hours away) we are so excited! we leave on Saturday for 2 weeks yeaaaahhh. We won't be in Raymond or Lethbridge but we are excited to be with Family for the Holidays! Merry Christmas Everyone!!!!

Yeah for Emily!

So we got our first visitor in Lexington! EMILY came to visit and it was so fun! I had to drive all the way to Ohio to pick her up and my trip there is a blog post all in itself (a 3and a half hour trip took me almost 8 hours ahhh my life) anyway once I actually picked her up it was so fun. We pretty much wore PJ's all weekend and Ramsey cooked us yummy dinners, it was great.

We were in a project mood and so my house was covered in tuele and ribbon, but Lily and Layla will sure look cute in their tutu's!!


One of the hardest things about this move has been moving so far from Em and Tom. In LaGrande we were only 2 1/2 hours from them and we saw each other all the time, I miss that so much and I miss her kids. Growing up Emily and I always had a love Hate relationship well we always loved each other but man could we fight (always over stupid things like clothes) but we were always quick to heal. Now I can proudly say that we are still best friends and have cut out the crazy fighting and have a love love relationship, I miss my big sis, so thanks for coming to visit Em come back and I'll make you another double decker chocolate cake!!!


Luke always has the sweetest poses and I swear I didn't pose him he was chilin watching some show like this, he is so funny.



I tried to take some cute pics of Lily but all she wanted to do was play with the decorations. And She is Walking!!!! My baby is walking and I tell her that she is not allowed and she does anyway the little stink, She is not allowed to be turning one!

Every kid loves Santa

The funny thing is that I think I have this same picture of me as a little kid with Santa, HAhaha

Every day CrAZiNEsS

Has anyone figured out how to STOP these children from growing? Lily is just growing too fast and I want to freeze her for a while. On the other hand Luke can just go right ahead and grow out of the phase he is in right now. I love him he's the best!! but it takes us like an hour to get out of the house cause he never wants his coat on or he wants different shoes or I tie his shoe's wrong (yes he has a bit of OCD) Any of these things can lead to a full scale meltdown. That's why he's hardly in any pictures ( I try I swear) but whenever I get the camera out he comes over to me to look. Or he has taken to looking down and refusing to look at the camera, so what can ya do. So anyway here are some new pics of the kiddies, The Grandma's were not understanding the picture of the PBJ. Well to explain my brand of humor...I just thought it would be funny. Everyone always has these close up pictures on their blogs of these masterpiece's that they have either baked or sewn, so I thought I would show what I've been making hahaha. IT WAS A JOKE!! Anyway I'm back to the kids now!

Look it saves on laundry! wash the kid and the clothes at the same time! It was Lily's idea she couldn't resist joining Luke in the Tub.

I love Luke's little stance here


Thank's for the coat mom and Soph, We will never lose her!

This is Lily's new favorite thing to do! And she does it 50 times a day
