A post for Big Cousin Lucas

This past weekend Brandon decided it was time to bring out the trains and tracks and start playing trains. He played for hours on Sunday! He's loving how we can constantly change the lay out of the tracks and make noise as we push the trains. We played again Monday night until way past bedtime! I see hours of entertainment this winter!! Thank you Lucas!!

Happy Thanksgiving!

We really tried hard to get a good thanksgiving photo for our christmas card. That didn't work.. I'm getting desprate! Maybe this weekend will work. but this is a great shot of Karly and I!

too cute not to post!

This was them this morning just hanging out on the floor together.

you can tell Brandon loves Karly!

and Karly loves Brandon!

the leaves are falling!!

For the first time since being a small kid I actually enjoyed the leaves on the ground! Brandon had his first run through the leaves! We were out for a long time and you can see in the pictures he really enjoyed it!

He tripped, but it was more of a dive!

Karly loved being outside and watching!

yes, I colored my hair!

Halloween... a very late posting..

Halloween didn't go as smoothly as we thought it would go! We spent alot of time finding his elephant costume, only to find he refused to wear it until that night when he saw other kids dressed up! He was way too excited for this, we went to 2 dozen houses but he was more into the running than collecting candy! (no complaints) My idea of a family picture went out the window, this was all we captured. and he never wore his hat, which was the cutest part of the costume!

with the hope Brandon would wear his costume Doug bought DJ LanceRock costume from Yo Gabba Gabba

I love his eyes in this! He really wasn't sure wha was up!

pop up tent

We brought out the tent today thinking Brandon would love to play with his animals in it, which he didn't. But boy did these two have fun together camping" out!

Karly Carolyn is 5 months old!

This picture was taken this morning with my cell phone, not the best lighting, but she was so happy and looked so cute with the hat!

Brandon is pretty talented!

I told Brandon we needed to put his toys away before getting out of the tub, this is what he did all by himself!
a masterpiece from school
