Catching Up Again

Chevy Chase, I mean Levi putting up the lights...

It was a beautiful day to get this done Marcus sat outside all day Saturday watching his Daddy put Christmas lights on the house

The past two months have really gone by fast. Here we are, already Thanksgiving week! We love this time of year, and are excited to have Levi's family here for Thanksgiving day this year. The past weekend Levi worked on putting outside lights on our house. We haven't turned them on, only to test them, but will turn them on probably the day after Thanksgiving when we usually put up our tree. The boys get so excited about all of that, and the decorating. Should be another fun family time!

I included some pictures here from Marcus birthday party, as well as a party with his cousin Kaitlyn...they are only 1 year apart, their birthdays being on Oct 27 and 29. So we like to get together with them and celebrate together when we can. That evening we all ate pizza and watched Toy Story 3. The week before we celebrated his birthday with my parents, Levi's parents, and our friends Jack and Ginger. Unfortunately about the time it came to eat and have cake, Marcus was running a fever and not feeling well. So, you will notice in one of the pic's Levi is holding his candles away from the cake so he can still blow them out and not spread germs....turned out he had an ear infection when I took him to the doctor the following week. His tubes had just fallen out 2 weeks before, so we are hoping this will be a one time occurance, and he will not have to have tubes put back in. We shall see what happens. He's looking forward to a 2 day school week this week, loves his time at home! I can't wait for that either!
