Puting up the Tree!!!

We bought this little tree last year becuase our 9 foot one wouldn't fit in our Scipio house. Well, we ended up giving away our big tree becuase it wouldn't fit in this house. So we'll buy a new tree as soon as the basement is finished, but I decided its too long to wait without being festive. So our rinky-dink tree went up in the front room. Carver helped put the ornaments on.

Thanksgiving Day!!!

Thanksgiving Day was spent with Mike's family. We went over to his Grandpa's house and the rest of his family met up there to enjoy a nice dinner. Carver loved the pie, fruit salad and his Aunt Mindy taught him how to put olives on his fingers. We enjoyed the company, ate lots of food, and relaxed!

Happy Thanksgiving!!!

We hope everyone has a wonderful day filled with friends, family and food!!!

Big Shoes To Fill...

Carver likes to put on our shoes after we take them off. He thinks he's big enough to wear daddy's boots. He also likes to show his belly off.

Lazy Sunday....

We spent the day watching movies. Brought the dogs in for a little while to enjoy the nice fire. Bronc ended up getting rode by Carver, while Skeeter was so excited, he fell asleep in the dog bed.

More Carver and Puppy pics....

Here's them watching tv. As you can tell, Skeeter wasn't too excited and Carver thought he was a dog. He's a bit jealous of the puppy when we are holding him, but he's doing pretty good.

Out for a Walk...

We decided to enjoy the nice fall weather and head out for a walk. Took the two dogs and Carver. But it didn't last long becuase Carver wanted to pull the wagon instead of ride in it.

Our new Puppy!!!

We decided to get a friend for Bronc. We got an English Setter last night. He'll be a great upland dog. Carver helped pick the puppy out. He had a fit when it didn't want to sit in his lap the whole way home. And then when the puppy tried taking his tiger toys, he decided he wasn't going to share them. Now, we just need to decide on a name.....

Favorite Toys...

Carver has started picking out some of his favorite toys. He's a huge fan of all his Tiger stuffed animals. And he loves his beach ball. That's his third beach ball since he's been crawling.

Where's Carver??

Carver loves playing the, Where's Carver game?? He thinks that you can't see him if he hides behind his hands. Then you ask him Where is Carver....I can't find him anywhere??? Then he pulls his hands away and tries to say, here he is!! He's adorable doing it!!!

Playing with the Doggy!!!

We finally got a break from all this rain and decided to head outside. Bundled Carver all up and let him play.

Do you think he's mad??

Carver tends to throw a fit when it comes time to come inside from the barn. I'm sure he'd love to just throw a bed up next to the ponies!

Under Construction

My craft room:

The Guest bedroom:

The hallway:

Our house has been under construction since we moved in. The upstairs is mainly done (besides the kitchen). So now we're onto the basement. Mike has got the doors all cased and new doors up. Still working on the baseboards and window casings. Then we'll be ready to paint. We also have a family room not pictured. It looks about the same as the rest of the house down here.

Woohoo!!!

Look what this last storm brought us! Its so nice to see the snow in the mountains again. This is just out our back door. I'm not excited about the cold temps it brought or the mud in the pasture, but I'll live.

New Hairdo

I went to the salon today and decided to get a new hair style. Went brunette and shorter. Came home and Carver didn't even recognize me. He just sat there and stared wondering where his mommy was! Too funny! He realizes its me now. :)

Ho...Ho...Ho...!!!

Carver decided to call Santa and tell him he's been a good boy this year!!! Wonder if Santa believed him??? Hahahaha!!!

Lazy Day...

What a gloomy day outside! Its been raining pretty hard all day. So we've been bumming around inside watching TV. Carver decided to get a good seat and eat lunch at the same time.

Halloween!!!

Sorry, I'm late posting blogs for a few days. Been crazy with Halloween parties and such. Here's Carver's Halloween. He was a dragon (a cute one at that!). Got to go see great grandpa, trick or treat with cousins, get lots of candy, and then sleep! He was pooped after all that trick or treating! We were smart this year and brought the wagon. So he got to trick or treat from the wagon and save our backs! His cousin pooped out too and rode along with Carver the entire time.
