The Sweater Party was a Sweltering Success!

The Annual Sweater Party
Great Sweaters everyone! We all had a great time and missed those who weren't able to make it. All props however go to Jordan! What a tough, hot, crutch using woman. Jord just had her ACL operated on, we are talking the day before the party. So all drugged up her hubbie practically carried her to the party. Thanks for pushing through the pain Jord, it wouldn't have been the same with out you.
We were also lucky to have Jamie there, all the way from Ohio. She brought her beautiful smile and cute stories about little Lucy. Our always gorgeous Heather brought her little one, Hayden, some of us had yet to meet her. We were all amazed at what a happy and giggly baby she is. Kirsten is doing well and as a self admitted bleeding heart for all animals she said she would come by and play with Sugar when she was in the neighborhood, poor Sugar has been slightly neglected lately. Mel is doing great and told us all about little Brayden who really isn't that little anymore. We can't wait to hear how Christmas morning went for little Brayden.

Merry Christmas Everyone and happy Sweater Shopping for next year!

Make a Smilebox scrapbook

I am aware that my blogging habits are not the best. So I thought to myself why I am I so blogger challenged and then I realized that it is just a phase,..... well I think, a "two kids thirteen months apart "phase.I thought this picture illustrates my point, I just wanted Jeff to take a cute picture of me and my boys, when all of a sudden Jack sees Sugar and goes tumbling after her and the excitement is too much for Kenny so he pukes all over me, himself and the floor. So while my blog entries are lacking in style and creativity, at least my clothes and hair are not being deprived of any love and attention from two little boys.


I do have to say that although my hair and makeup are hardly ever done and some days I never make it out of the house, I wouldn't change any of it. I love our little family more than anything. I find my self laughing and smiling throughout the day because of all the crazy little things that happen like...

Jeff throwing Jack so high that the little boy can't even scream,
..or finding myself looking at my little boy and seeing his father....
.
in more ways than one,.
Hearing my little Kenny, "Goo" and "Gah" over his tiny toes, (that really aren't that tiny)
.
My heart instantly fills up with joy when I see and hear my little one laugh just because I say his name with a smile.Then There are the times when I get to be outside in the mountains doing what I love with the Man I love the most.
We were skinning the back country up Guardsmen Pass, looking for some good stuff, and believe it or not we found it. We had 20 or so great turns in some decent snow. It was great, especially not being pregnant, my first ski season in three. This is Jeff digging a pit to check avalanche conditions (just in case). Life is really quite fantastic and I have no complaints, except for mabey my belligerent blogger attitude.


Thanksgiving at My House!!
Thanksgiving was a great day, we had all of my siblings and their spouses over for a grand feast! It was grand because all I was in charge of was the turkey, and I quickly handed that responsibility off to Jeff. So the food was wonderful and the company was even better.

All the daughters with their beautiful Mother.
The icing on the cake was Cam let us finally cut his hair. I do love the muff, don't get me wrong but he has such a nice face, it should really be seen, obviously he didn't agree.
