Santa Blackmail Photo 2011



you remember last year's right????


We tried twice to get a good one last year. This year it was just humorous. Now I feel like each year it will be a contest to get the worst Santa pic :)

Let is Snow Let it Snow Let it Snow



On Saturday morning we set off to the Bavarian Village of Leavenworth, WA :) Cute little town in the Cascade Mountains about 2 hours from Seattle that has a Christmas festival throughout December every year. The activities were a little too mature for our kiddos but it was nice to get out and enjoy the Washington countryside and take in the snowfall! THis was the boys first time in snow and it was pretty hysterical!












Double the Tickle Double the Laughs :)

OH PIZZA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What do you get when you put a boy who loves to eat in front of pizza for the first time..............THIS :)

The Hunt's Visit Seattle


My sister and her family came to visit for the first time in November. Jd was VERY excited to have his cousins, Mason and Mylie, to his house :) We stayed quite busy with a long list of activities to keep the 4 kids entertained. We went to the top of the Space Needle (which was a first for us too) We went to a bounce house place, we went to Alki Beach, we went to the Children's Museum, we went to Lincoln and Ercolini Park and Steve, Mylie and Mason rode the ferry to Bainbridge Island and went to the Children's Museum over there!!!! My sis and Steve also got a weekend away and Andy and I watched the kiddos and then we got a night away while they watched them. It was a fantastic week!!! Here are a few pics :)
