its the most wonderful time of the year!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It is by far my favorite time of the year. The holidays are approaching and Cookie the elf has arrived in our house. He came a little early this year because he remembered that the kids would be leaving for the Thanksgiving holiday to spend it with their dad. Plus- we need a little extra encouragement when it comes to making good choices.

The kids are ever so busy. We had a great Fall soccer season. Madison has moved to up to U8 and we have seen such a huge improvement in her skills. I am looking forward to the spring to see what improvements she makes! Gavin is so ready to play soccer but unfortunately he is too young. We will have to wait until - at the earliest Fall of 2012. I think he will be my little soccer star.

The kids have fallen in love with the farm. We have spent pretty much every weekend at the farm and they are becoming quite the "farm kids". Gavin is still in awe of tractors, green ones of course!, but won't sit on one or even ride one. Madison is all about riding and learning about everything at the farm. They love going to see the cows and Madison has been naming all the new calves that are being born.

We are looking forward to the holidays. We have a lot going on with the holidays coming up but we are really excited!

We will keep you updated on our happenings!
