Merry Christmas!!

Merry Christmas from our family to your's. We were so blessed that we were able to spend it with family. We had such a great time hanging out, eating, and opening up gifts. Here are a few of my favorite pictures.

We had a picture of what Santa brought her but some how it got deleted so I will just tell you it was a super cool 5 in 1 Radio Flyer Tricycle.

Decorating Cookies

 Today I made Gingerbread cookies and let the kids decorate them. Aubrey wasn't to in to decorating as much as she was into dipping and licking her cookie with frosting. Here are a few pictures from their fun day and the end results.

Aubrey sure likes her cookie 

All the kids hard at work

Were expecting!!

Randy, Aubrey and I are excited to announce that we are expecting our second child in June 2013! We are super excited and couldn't pick a more perfect time since we will just be settling into our new house.

This is how we announced it to the world on Facebook!

Happy 2nd Birthday Aubrey!!

Happy 2nd Birthday to my sweet little girl Aubrey!! This past Saturday we celebrated her special day will close friends and family. It was a lot smaller than her 1st birthday which turned out really well. She was able to enjoy her friends and even got the hang of openning her own gifts (no help from mom this year). We also transitioned her out of the crib and into her toddler bed which seems to be going pretty well. Here are a few of my favorite pictures from her special day.

Not to thrilled to be in a chair blowing out a candle

Aubrey's 2 year photos

We took Aubrey to get her 2 year photos and I must say they turned out really well. I had such a hard time picking out pictures I ended up getting the cd. This year's theme is Minnie Mouse thus is why she has on the Minnie Mouse ears. I can honestly say we would have not gotten such great pictures if Randy had not hit himself in the head with one of their Holiday balls to make Aubrey laugh so hard.

 

Schilter Family Farm Pumpkin Patch

Sunday we put our rain boots and coats on and headed down to Schilter Family Farm for a fun and wet day of picking out pumpkins. This year Aubrey was actually able to enjoy her surroundings and even pick out her own pumkpin. My mom, dad, brother and his 3 kids came along with Randy, Aubrey and I as we do every year. Here are a few pictures from our fun and wet day.

 She's a growing girl

 Aubrey loved petting the horsey as she calls it

 My brother Chris and his 3 girls on the Hay ride

 Someone was not in a smiling mood at this point

 Is this a good pumpkin mom?

 I think I might want this one instead

 Aubrey picked her pumpkin out and was ready to go
