Birthday week



I find it hard to believe Karli will be 5 on Thursday Dec. 3. Where did the last 5 years go? She truly is a beautiful miracle and we are so lucky to have her as our daughter. I am so proud of her and who she has already become as a 5 year old. She is so smart, funny, compassionate, and loving. I hope she continues to grow up in this way. She is a great big sister too! Chris told her we would make her favorite dinner on her birthday and her request was Macaroni and cheese. That was also one of the things in school that she listed she was thankful for.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY KARLI!

Other birthdays this week are...my sister in law Tracy and my niece Natalie. Happy Birthday to you!

Trick or treating


We did the annual trick or treating event at Chris' parents house. The kids had fun, despite the chilly temps. Carmen's subdivision is becoming very popular it seemed like there were a lot of trick or treaters and many houses involved in passing out candy. Karli was so brave until at one house a very still scarecrow moved and frightened her. It was downhill from there. Even Cameron lasted a long time this year. He still wanted to pull the wagon. He had fun marching up to the houses saying "here we go.....here I come, trick or treat, and thank you." He also pointed out after he said thank you, that the person passing out the candy did not say you're welcome!
