We have been running since we had our kids - in every way! Life is like a marathon - full of uphills and downhills, water stops, taking the time to stretch, beautiful views, fast sprints, slow walks, and yes, sore muscles. But we are thankful for all of it because when we reach the finish line at the end of each day we know that it was all worth it!

Kevin's Birthday - 35!













Kevin had his birthday on December 5th.  The girls surprised him with a singing show and dinner at Cafe Rio, plus a homemade cake and presents.  They love their dad!














Marlie took a pretty good picture of us that night.  We have very few of these so I thought I should post it.  Aren't we so cute?

Happy Thanksgiving and Grandma Lynda's Famous Gingerbread House Night

Marlie made a turkey gobbler toy at school and it was hilarious.  Wish you could hear the sound it made!  Then we ate at my mom's house and Aunt Kim made the cutest turkey nametags with nice things about each of us on the back.  Also, Lucie was in the cutest Thanksgiving pilgrim program at her preschool with Mrs. King.  She sang so well this year too.
















































Grandma Lynda always buys a gingerbread house for each grandchild and the kids have so much fun decorating them.  It is a really fun tradition!

When a friend of mine showed me this JibJab sendable, it cracked me up!  Marlie and I started up our blog yesterday and had so much fun picking music and of course, putting our heads on the HSM3 Troy and Gabriella!  We just saw the movie on Saturday, and loved it (although Kevin thought it was too long - I'm sure no one is surprised...)  Anyway, I am excited to learn how to make the blog a scrapbook.  That is a big reason why I did it.  Hope you enjoy our JibJab sendables!
PS  When you push play, be sure to pause the music on this blog, so you can enjoy the HSM3 soundtrack!
