Lucas

Showing off how many teeth he's lost.

Enjoying his time at Safeco Field during Fan Fest for the Mariners.

Learning to ski

So happy to be in the snow again.

Lucas is my favorite boy in the world. I love watching find new things he loves. This last year, he fell in love with baseball. This last month he tried skiing with Ted. Well, he loved it. We really thought he wouldn't like it but he did and he was great at. I love that he and Ted found something they really like and can do together.

Getting a little stir crazy

Ted's 2nd day off school and Lucas' 1st. Tomorrow is already called a snow day for both. And we will see if I'm off work too. Enjoying the beauty of snow but ready to get moving a little bit.

Lovely ladies.......

We were some of the lucky ones that got to celebrate with friends Rachel and Phil at their very fun wedding. I love seeing when a friend finds someone that was made just for her. We got to enjoy the night of many activites and fun stories. Nora with friend Coco entertained during the "social hour" up on stage.

We're grandparents!

Nora fell asleep with something stuffed up her shirt. She's been doing that a lot lately...saying she's going to have a baby with some animal or baby up her shirt. But tonight, she stuffed something up there and then fell asleep.

Poof - our grandbaby. How easy is that??

A star is born...

Thanksgiving with Family

The cousins on the couch.

We spent the actual day of Thanksgiving with our wonderful friends the Fabs and had a great day. They are truly like family and we are so blessed to have them in our lives. The saturday after Thanksgiving we spent with my brothers family at my mom's to celebrate again. Below are some pictures of the evening.

Lucas with his best buddy
Nora loves to play with cousin Claire

Uncle Chris virtually tickling Lucas. He wasn't even touching Lucas' feet and Lucas was laughing so hard.

My oldest nephew Jack is so great with the kids. Very gentle and kind.

We are blessed to have so many friends that are like family and our own family to celebrate with. We are grateful for all of them.

Halloween..

Lucas was a vampire on Halloween night. We sprayed his hair black and white powder on his face.

His first victim, she looks pretty happy about it.

The Saturday night before was the carnival at his school and no "scary" costumes were allowed so he was a baseball player, of course.
