Santa Claus is coming to town

Jacks favorite song is santa claus is coming to town. He wants to sing it year round. Finally, its time.

Friday, I took the kids to see the jolly ol guy. They all sat in is lap and made their requests. When it was time to leave, Lucy asked Santa where his reindeer were. He told her it was a secret. She exclaimed, then i will eat all your cookies and drink all your milk and with that she got up and left.

One more magical trip....

We headed back to Disney this past October. We had a great time as always. I think we were only back home a week this year before they started asking to go back. After
15 years, I am amazed how we never get tired of the "happiest place on earth".

Its been a while.....

My computer has been down. Here are some pics of the past few months so we can all catch up....

Toes in the water, hiney in the sand....

It has came and went all too quick. A week at the beach...can't really think of anything much more fun or relaxing. The whole family went minus Jared and Nana, they were missed. The week was spent lounging around the pool and ocean. The kids skim boarded, boogey boarded, played corn hole and ball, built sand castles/creatures. We ate, ate and ate some more. Took in the karate kid and also shop shopping and a daily nap! It was a vacation to remember.

when moms not looking......

someone in the house likes to steal my camera and take multiple pics of oneself...you get the idea

Summer

Ahhh...the first weekendof summer and how relaxing it was. Lucy, Jack and i went to grandma and pop-pops house on saturday and enjoyed a day at the pool. It was a great day to be lazy. Lucy stayed the night and had a fun time. Sunday we went as a family to see Shrek, the final chapter. and followed that up with some yummy mexican to celebrate the the school year. If only every weekend could be this grand....

The Fair

The second annual blairsville fair is back...
this year they have more rides, corn hole tournaments, a tractor race and a homerun derby. so redneckish and so much fun...
We took the kids thursday night. Katie was with us, Nic opted to skip the fair to watch his girlfriend play ball. I am glad Katie was with us, she like Lucy has no fear when it comes to rides. Lucy rode a very few of the smaller rides with Jack but ended up riding the cyclops about 15 times. Alot of prayer went up that evening holding that big piece of metal and all those screws together.
