Kennedy's Christmas Program
They reacting with songs the Nativity.  Kennedy was an angel.

Daddy and Carter waiting patiently.

Standing in line.

The picture is pretty blurry, but you can see how relaxed she was.  She stood there and waited for the program to start with her hands in her pockets.  Too funny!!! 

Looking for us in the crowd!!

She did such a great job.  She sang and knew all of the words.  It was awesome!!

Afterwards they had cookies which was Carter's favorite part!

Cheesin' with mom!
There was even a special visitor! Santa and Mrs. Claus!!!!

When we moved, the artificial Christmas tree was left in Topeka.  Too bad.  So, we had to get a new one.  On the suggestion of Tony(yes believe it folks!), we got a REAL one this year!  We drove around looking for a Christmas tree farm, only to get hungry and kindof lost.  :)  So we ended up getting one at Home Depot.  The kids were so excited!!!


Kennedy helped decorate and put the star on the top!

Daddy helping...

Carter just watched football and looked very dapper I might add!!
Wedding!
I forgot to put some pictures of the wedding.  In November, Kennedy was in Ruth's daughter's wedding.  We had a great time and the reception was one of the highlights.  Here are a few pics!!
Bustin' a move on the dance floor!!

Peace out dudes!!!

Kennedy and the ring bearer waiting for the next song.  They danced alot together....because Kennedy made him.  :)

Carter surprised everyone with the amount of dancing he did.  He was quite the entertainer!!!

Great picture of the kids and Kevin and Ruth!

Yes. We like to dance.


"Dad, I know how to dance. I don't need a lesson."  I am imaging that is what Kennedy is saying!

Hokie Pokie.

In case you can't quite see what is going on, that is Kennedy and Carter in the middle of the hokey pokey circle.  I'm not sure how it happened but they loved every minute of it!!!!
Kennedy and the bride, Jenna.  Don't they look beautiful?!!

I have heard the requests and here you go!!  I have many pictures in many different locations so I am trying to sort through them all to get all of the events on the blog.  You will have to start at the bottom because I tried to put them in chronological order.  Make sure you go back to September to get everything!!!

The first snow!!
I am very happy to report that today was the first snow since we have been here.  It was about 2 inches, but it was great!  We watched it fall all day yesterday while watching football and a delicious dinner in the crockpot.  It was awesome.  Today: let's try out that snowblower!

All geared up!

Now, how does this work?

"You kids start and I will enjoy the view."

Cheese!

Is this working?

The 3 amigos did a great job!

Yes, the day after we got a snowblower, the weather was chilly, but NOT snowing.  There are parks everywhere in our development.  Across the lake from our house, is the public beach.  There is a really great park there.  We tried it out today and it is awesome. 

Kennedy is Queen of the hill!!!

Carter just looking adorable!
