I can't believe it is December already! I have been so busy lately I haven't had time to update this thing. We have been up to so much and I have way to many pics to post! Here are a few of the highlights.
HALLOWEEN 2009
I thought it would be funny for our whole family to dress up as characters from Nacho Libre. The boys didn't like that idea. Since Boston was the only one who couldn't tell me no, he was Nacho! He was the most adorable nacho ever! Jaxson wanted to be Jack Sparrow, so I put together his costume. I found these awesome boots at Goodwill that he loved, I think I did a pretty good job! Max wanted to be Darth Vader and luckily my friend Julie had the costume already. The day before Jaxson's joy school Halloween party, I busted out the costume box looking for something. Jax found a spider man costume and then insisted on being that. I guess I should have got that out before I made his costume.... I let him be spider man for the party but Jack for trick or treating. Luckily they don't LOVE the trick or treating part yet and are not all about the candy. They were happy filling up a third of their bucket. They ate a few pieces of candy and that was it!

John dressed up as Nacho too!
Gilbert Days Parade
Our boys look forward to going to this parade every year! This year Bethany and Eden came with us.
I didn't remember to take pictures until we got back to the car and all I had was my camera phone. Nice.
PHX ZOO
I was able to go with Max's class for their field trip this year to the Phoenix Zoo. I had so much fun going with him. I was glad I was able to to leave the little kids at home with John so I could just go. It was fun and he called it our "date". I love going on dates with this guy. He is so sweet and was so eager to re-introduce me to all of his friends at school. Every time I go into his classroom to help, he always has to make sure everyone knows I am his mom. I love it, I hope it lasts through high school :)
Thanksgiving was great. We had it this year at our house for John's side of the family. We managed to pull it off and had so much fun. We are just so lucky to have such an awesome family!
I love this time of year and have so much to be thankful for. I am so thankful for my family. I am grateful for all the support we have had the last 8 months. I am grateful that my husband was able to find a great job after 6 long months of searching. We were truly blessed because he was humble enough to take a not so glamorous job in between. He is a wonderful man and I love him so much!
