Christmas and Kyle Visit

Well, Christmas was quiet and uneventful and for that we are grateful. Here are the photos:

We have been having a blast with Kyle and here's what we've done so far: bought a "new to us" car, went sledding, Santa visit #1, snow tubing, Santa visit #2, man shopping at Buckeye Outdoors, movies, and playdate with Donnie. We still plan on going to an indoor water park, japenese steak house, and lunch with Dad.

I hope everyone had a Merry Christmas and is keeping warm in these frigid temperatures. Love ya!!

special blessings

Countdown-Clocks

Kyle, L&K's big brother, is coming to stay with us for 2 weeks over the Christmas and New Year's. We are over the moon excited to have him with us the for Holidays. Now, if I can just entertain a 13 year old and 2 21 month old boys....hmmmm

B-B-D

Big Buck Down, as Tiffany would say from one of Jason's favorite shows:  Gettin' Close.  In all actuality, I like the show too.  She's the reason I wanted to start shooting a bow in the first place.

Jason shot this buck on November 1, 2009, 4:30 p.m. in Wayne National Forest, Perry County, Ohio.  It's Pope & Young score is 148.85"....Jason's personal best by far.  He shot it at 40 yards with his bow, then had to drag it by himself for about an hour.  Needless to say, he was beat by the time he got home and take this pictures. 

Our freezer is full, we have 2 items at the taxidermist, and the brand new meat grinder is broke.  On a better note, Jason is hunting tomorrow (read: he's obsessed).

Way to go J!!  We're happy for you.

Halloween Redo

We put on the costumes last night to try to get some better photos.  Better, still not good, these boys won't sit still for anything.  Is it so much to ask to get ONE photo of them standing side by side??  Guess so.

Trick or Treat

We decided to brave trick or treating at the local Nursing Home in Pataskala last night.  Even though I wasn't feeling great, I didn't want the boys to miss out.  We went last year, but the boys were not walking at the time...plus, I had already made their costumes.  Taking a photo of 2 toddlers is nearly impossible, here's the best we could do....

This one is with the Sitter's kids....Matt, Mali, and Kenya

I think I'll fake another night to try to get some better photographs.

YABBA DABBA DOO!!

A Pumpkin for my punkins

I took the boys to Lynd's Fruit Farm to pick a pumpkin.  We decided to do u-pick and we got a couple right off the vine.  It was a little crazy hectic since Jason didn't come, but it was fun nonetheless.  If we ever get over this sickies, we plan on returning to pick some apples....

this was taken the following day in our backyard.

18 Month photos

Since mobility, photos have been impossible.  James (jbwillis@yahoo.com) is having more luck than we are.  Here are the newest photos:
