Happy thanksgiving!

This thanksgiving was nice and relaxing. The weather here in Cleveland was beautiful at 62 degrees! The morning was spent putting up outside Christmas decorations and riding bikes. Mckenzie wanted to help us cook this year. The girls also made turkey place cards for everyone. We made these awesome crockpot cinnamon pecans and everything was amazing! We watched the movie Christmas vacation while eating desert and everyone had a nice day!

Wake up Santa!!

Going to strings vile mall around thanksgiving time to wake up Santa is becoming a yearly family tradition for us! Each year the kids wear their Jammie's to the mall where Santa is sleeping in a chair. Mrs. Claus comes and has frosty, roudolph, and the grinch come to help wake Santa up each year as the Christmas season approaches. The kids have a blast and it gets me in the mood for the Hidatsa season!

Gym class

This fall I snagged a groupon for a toddler gym class for max. It was a two month trial but after his first couple of classes I knew we were going to end up doing this longer than that! Max really loves hanging from the bars, walking on the beam, and climbing the rope! Such fun and great exercise esp in these up coming winter months!

Halloween 2012

Well it is November 4th and we just finished up trick or treating...crazy right? It sure did not feel like Halloween this year. At true beginning of the week we were under the rath of hurricane sandy. So many people lost power for days and a lot of damage was done. They canceled trick or treating on Halloween for everyone's safety. So it was rescheduled for tonight. Too bad Maddie for pretty sick throughout the day and was miserable by night time. She fell asleep on the couch at 6 and did not even get her costume on. Mckenzie went trick or treating with friends and I took max out. He had a pretty good time but only lasted about 25 minutes due to the cold. Defiantly a different Halloween for us this year!
