Christmas at the Baxter's

 We had such a wonderful time on Christmas Day! We woke up and had a GREAT breakfast by Dad. After opening presents at our house, we headed over to Auntie Amanda and Uncle Vince's house to celebrate with the cousins! Feel like we ate amazing food all day, played, ate some more, opened presents, at some more, and finally headed home.

Christmas Eve at Grammy's house

We headed out to Orange County for our traditional Christmas Eve celebration at Grammy and Grandpa's house. The kids had a great time running around with Alex, while we enjoyed our chili! There were TONS of leaves in the backyard, but because it had just rained we didn't get to do much playing in them. Of course fun was had by all when it came time to exchange presents. We're so blessed to live close to family and be able to get together frequently.

Joey's Birthday

Because of some computer trouble, and the holidays, I've seriously neglected the old blog! Thought I would post some pictures from my nephews 3rd birthday that we recently went to. All of the kids had such a great time playing with their cousins. We are so blessed to have an awesome family that lives so near!!


Nona with all of her Grandkids!







After bouncing, playing and eating cake, we were all about this tired!

Lots of totally random pictures

On Saturday, Brandon asked me to take pictures of him. I think it was just a trick to let him go exploring in the wilderness, but I couldn't pass it up since my kids rarely want me taking their pictures! So these are all the random pictures we got.

Of course Brooklyn wanted in on the action too...and yes she has red stripes in her hair LOL Leftover from Fall Festival on friday! I just love all her silly faces.




Then Melanie found out what we did and asked to do the same on Sunday after church. Was fun getting pics of all three together and I got to play with my "fuzzyflector" too. More random pictures...

Random Costume Pictures

Since it is Halloween, here are a few of my kiddos in their costumes. Of course we haven't even gone trick-o-treating yet, but they've already dressed up multiple times whether it was for school parades or costume parties at Auntie's...enjoy!
