decorating the tree.

Its been a long four months.  We were ready to come back to our home for a break.  So decorating the tree for us was letting the kids do it all by themselves with Cade and I looking on.  We had a great vacation with family and friends and the kids ran free!  It was good to be HOME.

I Love these 2 boys.  They DO NOT LIKE pictures so every chance I get i snap one of them.  They are best friends but sometimes they like to pretend they arent.

and Gunner also got braces during the break.  He looks good in them,, and older!
