Christmas Decorations!

We put up our Christmas tree this morning!






Nothing like watching Beetlejuice to put you in the Christmas spirit!


Eventually we moved on to "A Christmas Story" as that seemed like a better fit.

Shepard's stocking:


The nativity, Shepard's favorite holiday decoration:


The finished tree:


The tree at night:


I asked Shepard to stand in front of the tree and smile...











This one kind of looks ok:


Riley Q:


Again, I asked Shepard to get next to Riley and smile. The kid was in quite a silly mood today...


She looks so annoyed with her big brother already!





Success!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Shepard was our official photographer for Thanksgiving 2013! He got some pretty unique shots... We may have an artist on our hands!

He also took some pics of my parents passed out in a turkey coma, but I'll save those for future blackmail opportunities!

Our New Skate Park

We spent the morning at the grand opening of Kennesaw's brand new (and totally awesome) new skate park! Shep will be the master of the half pipe in a few years!






It was chilly so Shepard was cranky...

And happily for Shep, we were able to hit up the playground on the way back to our car!

Noodle Time

Riley and I came downstairs this morning to find Shepard and Daddy making this weekend's dish - homemade noodles!


I asked Shepard to smile...
