~Christmas Morning~

I loved Christmas morning this year. It is always extra special every other year when I have Brevan, and Sloane made it extra fun. I loved hearing their voices coming down the hall saying "Santa came! Santa came!"

Looking cute as ever in their Christmas PJ's

Santa left a loot, and Sloane thought she was done after one present!

Enjoying all their presents.....

Silly Girls

Sloane and Addi hamming it up....

Naughty or Nice

Sloane just found out she's on the naughty list!

Wishing you all peace, love, and joy this Christmas.

New Moon!

I can't remember the last time I was up past 3 am... Last Thursday Missy, Courtney, Leslee, and I went to New Moon, and it was crazy fun. I'm talking breathtaking/chills/tears/falling-in-love kind of fun! We began the evening with a little shopping, dinner, and then a some Twilight action as we counted down the minutes until we could see the much anticipated flick. It was INCREDIBLE, but now I am not sure who's team I'm on... Jacob or Edward??? Loved the movie, loved the girls, and loved the night!

Missy and I had the cutest New Moon shirts on :)

I think subconsciously I was going for the pale vampire look....

Princesses

Last Saturday we took Sloane to Disney's Princesses on Ice with JoDee and Jaycie. It was so fun, and to see the pure look of bliss on their little faces when the show began was worth the melt down my little princess had that morning. :)

Our little princesses LOVED it!

Jaycie pretty much looked like this the entire show. She was totally captivated!

Making it even more special for Sloane, Addi went to the same show and sat in the same section!

Beautiful Butterfly

Sloane loved being in her Halloween costume. It was magical for her, she truly felt like she became a butterfly and could fly. We love you baby girl and thank you for making this Halloween so beautiful. Love, Mom, Dad, and Brevan.

~The Boxer and The Butterfly~

Along time ago in a far away land named Herriman, lived a Boxer and a Butterfly. They were a powerful duo who had come together to battle the evil that had bestowed upon the land. Their first encounter was with a beautiful, chubby little lady bug. She claimed danger lurked around every corner and to beware. With that she flew away.

Sure enough around the next corner, a heinous little demon spat his black venom upon the Boxer's face forming the forbidden uni-brow!!!
Fortunately, the lovely Princess Addison of Herriman blessed them with her wisdom. She said “only take candy from lady in the Sponge Bob costume, and it will give you the strength you need to free our land!”

As they moved on in their treacherous journey they also sought advice from a very wise Dalmatian. He stated, “You will have power in numbers and you have all of our support.”

The Boxer soon battled the Zombie Doctor and Disco Baller, which made them one step closer in their quest.
Once again they received help from Princess Addison and she led them to the Gladiators who said, “You must get candy at the houses with pumpkins, and this will give you the energy to fulfill your mission!”

Alas, they confronted the master himself, the Evil Goblin. After a brutal combat they were able to take him down and peace was bestowed back into the land. The strung him up to warn others to never mess with the Boxer and the Butterfly!
~The End~

Pumpkin Patch

Last Saturday we had our annual pumpkin patch trip and this year we included the Gregrich clan on our excursion. It was so much fun and I think it will quickly become a family tradition.

Doesn't Brandon look like he is having way to much fun? Don't let his grumpy look fool you, he loved it. :)

After the pumpkin patch we headed back to our house to indulge on some great food. W hen we finally mustered up the energy, we painted a pumpkin or two. My kiddos loved it!

Notice Sloane's beautiful work of art... I didn't realize she had it in her!

Brevan clearly had too much boo juice....

Need a rake???

Brevan's available!!!

I have been reassured by the orthodontist Brevan's front teeth will move back together soon since the expansion is over.... In the meantime he would make a great rake!!!!!!

Expanding!!!

My little buddy had an expander put in his mouth about a week ago. At first he couldn't talk normal, so he went around sounding like he had an English accent for a day. This was mainly because he is dramatic, and he of course was milking it. His speech has improved since and we are already starting to see a space between his front teeth, yeah!
