All Aboard!

Last week we met up with our friends from the neighborhood and took the kids on the Polar Express. All the kids wore their pjs and looked so cute. They served us hot cocoa and cookies. A woman read the Polar Express book and then we sang Christmas carols. First we got to wave to Santa as we drove by the "North Pole" but then he actually got on the train and said Hi to all the kids and gave them a bell. That was Jeffrey's favorite part. Hannah had a hard time sitting still for that long. It was a little hectic, but all in all we had a good time. We ended the night with dinner at the Pizza Factory. Thanks for a fun night friends!

So much to be thankful for...

...especially family! We had a nice Thanksgiving at Grandma and Grandpa Forsyth's house. Dinner was delicious and we had lots of fun visiting. Although we missed Heather and her family! We got to spend time with Great Grandpa Taylor and Aunt Connie and her husband were in town. Madi has been bugging me to post pictures since that night, so here you go Madi.

Look who's 3...

My little guy turned 3 last week and I can hardly believe it! I was looking at pictures of him throughout the last year and it's crazy how much he has changed. He is such a sweet, adorable, bright (yes, I'm bragging!) little boy. He loves playing sports, you name it basketball, baseball, football, etc. He loves reading everything. He likes to point out all of the letters and he's doing a great job of sounding most of them out. He loves going to the Little Gym once a week. He still likes me to hold him so he can pinch my arm (been doing it since he was a baby). He can't wait for Dad to get home every day and he loves to hide and scare him. I thought it would be fun to ask him about some of his favorite things. Here are his answers...

Color - Green
Movie - Madagascar
Friend - Faythe, Hayley, & Chase (also cousins)
Song - Michael Jackson (He loves Thriller and will happily show you the dance if you ask!)
Food - Pizza
Drink - Red (I guess anything red)
Book - Barney
Sport - Basketball

It's been a whole week of celebration. First with just our little family, then they sang to him at The Little Gym, then he had a little family party with the cousins. We took them to see Madagascar 2. It was a cute movie and the first time Jeffrey has sat through an entire movie. Then it was back to the house for cake and ice cream. He is really into the Hulk right now, so you may notice Hulk pj's, a Hulk costume and Hulk fists. It was a fun week. Thanks to everyone for the nice gifts and for helping us celebrate.

Hannah enjoyed the gifts too!
