Tree Lots were created for a reason...

Man do I sound like a scrooge! But it was so freakin cold traipsing through the woods to find the perfect tree.

I wanted to ride on the wagon with Jack and just get pulled around. :)

Snow in Seattle

We decided to brave the busiest travel time of the year and fly to Seattle for a week to visit Grandma & Grandpa Rankin (my Mom and Step dad). Luckily we flew first class...Jack had plenty of room to play and sleep. He also loved the hot baked cookies.





It has snowed every day we have been here - a record for this area! Despite the cold & ice, Jack has loved wearing his snow boots and trekking through the deep snow.

Weekend Escapades

Hannah came into town Friday afternoon for her sister's graduation. Jack loves having someone new to play with. Plus, Hannah laughs at all his crazy antics. He just hams it up fo her.



John & Jack had a boys day at the Dallas zoo. Apparently they have a cool penguin exhibit and a monorail train that travels through an animal "safari". Pretty exciting stuff for a 2 year old...

Bubble Lights!

Jack absolutely loves Christmas trees this year. We've spent several mornings decorating our tree. We've had to convince him that all of the ornaments shouldn't surround the bottom of the tree.
