Happy Anniversary

Happy Anniversary to my amazing husband. Its been 7 years today and I love you more than I ever thought possible.

Its beginning to look a lot like Christmas!

The first of our Holiday outings and attempts to see Father Christmas (Santa). We went to a garden store in Cambridge that featured Father Christmas coming in on his sleigh being pulled by Newfoundland dogs! Landon and Sydney were having a great time until....it was time to see Santa!! This was the first of 3 Santa FAILS! Those pictures will be posted soon.

November 12, 2011 Sydney turns ONE!!!

One year ago, God blessed us with the sweetest angel, Sydney Reese. How time has flown by! We have loved having the chaos that two kids bring into a home and we wouldn't change it for the world. Over the last year we have discovered that Sydney is very sassy, knows what she wants and will do anything to get it. She has a scream that can make your bones tremble and a laugh that will melt your heart. She loves to eat and has always been a great sleeper. For all these things we are so thankful for and blessed in every way. We love you so much Sydney! (Squid) Happy Birthday ONE-derful Girl!!

p.s. She started walking a week before her birthday! pics to come!

Jimmys Farm in Ipswich

On Saturday Aug 12, we spent the afternoon at Jimmys Farm in Ipswich. It is a working farm that has a ton of animals for kids to pet and look at. We saw very large, feathery chickens(Landon chased them), tons of goats,alpacas, pigs and piglets, ferrets,guinea pigs,horses and cows. Landon had a great time, he wore is wellies and tested them out in a few muddy puddles! We plan on going back and checking out the store on the grounds that sells all kinds of meats,sausages, produce, breads and baked goods. Its a great little place!

It is nearly impossible to get these two to look up for a picture...this was the best we could do!


Jimmys farm has a ton of rare breed pigs, check out the nips on this poor girl!





Checking out the goats.

Tough guy in his wellies.





Landon loved the baby ducks, he was going to go in the pond after them!

A sunny day in England... ?

It is a rare day indeed, that the sun is out AND its warm enough to put your kids in a pool OUTSIDE in England! So rare I had to take pictures to prove it! :)
