Adam's biggest Trout EVER!!!

Here is the 21" dolly Adam caught today!!! It is huge and beautiful. It was extra special because it was caught on a lure that his mom just bought him last Sunday. Adam says, "THANKS MOM!!!" 

This doesn't look huge in this picture but it really was!!! 

 

Joel always loves the fish. 

Christmas Parade

What a blessing it was that Adam got to come to the Christmas parade. He was working but one of his clients wanted to go so we met up with him there. It was so so cold but the kids and us really enjoyed it! 

I thought that this was really sweet. She said that her eyeballs were cold. 

Adam and the kids watching the nativity go by. 

The only Christian float in the back, you can kind of make out an angel. It was beautiful.

Joel's look through the whole parade. He wasn't too impressed about wearing a hat. 

Me and Annabelle watching the floats go by.

Joel, cute in a basket.He loves to sit in the laundry baskets. 

Birthdays are so much fun!!!

Well, Joel is one year old. Hard to believe time could past so quickly. Here are a whole pile of pictures from the party that we had on Sunday. We had pizza, snacks and cake. It was really a blast. I always feel so blessed that so many people love to come and celebrate with us. I have done a bit of a big bash for each of the kids for their first birthdays. After that we tone it down. Hope you enjoy the pics even though they are a little out of order.

I love this cake. Thank you so much Louise! 

Joel wanted to help himself early. 

Joshua helped by blowing out the candle. 

 

Everyone watching Joel have his first try of Ice Cream Cake. He love to play with it but wouldn't eat it. 

 

 

Dishing out the cake, Annabelle, picking her nose like a lady. haha 

A bath was really needed after the cake episode! 

Joel, after his sink bath. Happy and clean!
