Catching Up

Whew, I think this has been a record breaking fast year for us, I've probably mentioned that a few too many times on this ole blog, but it's so true. Wow that was a run on sentence, yay me. Let me recap the past few months, in true Hagood procrastination style.
FINALLY had some professional photos taken this year. Wow family photos are hard to come by and I'm so thankful for these. We will treasure those pics and am thrilled that the boys did smile and they boys did get their dollar tree prize afterwards, as promised. We've got some handsome boys, if I do say so myself... Files are so large, I'll share one of my faves, I simply photo shopped the Merry Christmas banner to the established year so it could be used in our house all year round :). Moving right along, we had a wonderful, relaxing Thanksgiving, with only one house to eat at, that was a change, but so nice not to have to stuff our self twice. We've decided it's only fair to alternate years, so this year was the Krininger house. A day full of playing with cousins, eating, and a lot of sitting around digging through the sales ads planning the attach of black Friday. Did I mention it was a serious warm day, didn't even feel like November. Used the trusty tripod to capture a big family shot. Poor Colby....

We were so PROUD & SHOCKED that Houston learned how to ride a bike with no training wheels over the Thanksgiving weekend! What a big boy at only 3, but he's bound and determined to keep up with big brother.

Then we blinked and it was December.... Then came a magical night, with a visit to the North Pole, Polar Express style. They had a ball! Wished the "north pole" had some fake, snow it did confuse a certain 6 year old who has asked a lot of good questions this year. But you could see the magic and excitement in Houston's eyes, he loved every minute of it! Well, that's a wrap, be back soon with more Christmas festivities.
