Thanksgiving with the Thomas'!

Every year Nathan's mom has her Thanksgiving the Saturday after so that everyone will be able to come to it.

It was so great to see everyone. This is the only time most of us get to see Adam and Jack because they live in Boston.

Sorry about the picture overload.

They are in order from what happened last to first. :)

Every year the cousins get to decorate there own Christmas tree.

Talon was so cute with this doll. Nathan said that Talon wants and little brother. Sorry this is not an announcement or anything. :)

Yes we watched the BYU, Utah game. I am glad that BYu won! :) It was a good game.

The cousins.

The food was great as always.

Talon loves olives, mostly because they fit on his finger and they resemble balls. :)

Friday night we went bowling.

Talon loved the bowling balls and we had to keep a close eye on him....he wanted to do everything himself.

I won the second game and came a close second on the first. :)

We went paint balling. I got hit in the neck good thing it was on my collar and not my actual neck! We all came back with some pretty good battle wounds.

Adam and Jack chilling on the couch being teased by two little girls. ;)

This is the only time most of us get to see Adam and Jack because they live in Boston.

Thanksgiving with the Valentines!

This year my family had Thanksgiving at my brother Jed's house. Grandma Valentine joined us it was great .

We had a great time playing the Wii.

Yes that is Nathan sleeping on the floor. The food was really good, the Turkey must have made him tired.

Talease, Nathan and Jed helping with the preparation.

Ryker is getting so big. :)

Thanks Jed and Katie we had a great time.

Counting To TEN!!

I still don't know how to work that pillow right.

It's Back

We got our first snow of the year...well that actually stayed on the ground.

Man it is soooo cold....

Talon asked if we could go on a walk and I had to tell him that we couldn't.

I showed him the snow and that made him want to go outside even more.

We will have to go out on a day that is not so cold.

Pee Pee in the Pottie!

That's right Talon went pee pee in the pottie for the first time tonight!!

Ya!!!

I was surprised to....to say the least.

I think I might keep setting him on the pottie and see what happens. :)

Happy Birthday to you....

Today is my Mom's Birthday!

Happy Birthday Mom!

We love you so much and are so lucky to have such a great example in our lives.

We feel so blessed to have such a great Mom and Grandma.

Love you Mom, hope you have a great day!! xoxo

Talon also turned 18 months old today. :)

He was walking around the house yesterday wearing Nathan's sun glasses, it was so cute. :)

He has a major sweet tooth and sometimes will refuse to eat the healthy stuff and go straight for the sweets.

We are taking him off his bottle today and going with just the sippie cup. Wish us luck. :)

My Little Man

Not in the mood to have his picture taken. :)

Talon brushing his own teeth.....just look at that concentration. :)

He now has 11 teeth....he worked very hard to get them.

I love his blue eyes. I know I say this way to much......

Talon is growing up way to fast!

I just can't believe it....

It just astounds me how fast he is learning.

He is the biggest tease...I wonder where he gets that from? (his dad)

HALLOWEEN!!

We went to Nathan's parents for Halloween this year. Talon has been teething so he isn't the happiest boy ever but we made the best of it.

Talon was a frog for Halloween. :) I thought he looked really cute.

Talon and his cousins.

We went to a park and played for awhile and then the cousins went out Trick or Treating. Talon was so tired we took him on a drive so he could get some sleep. After that we had a good dinner and made home made Root Beer.

Talon didn't want to eat regular food, he thought all the candy was pretty good.
