Christmas Came in 3's....Part 1

Christmas came in 3's this year.....Part 1 in Idaho, Part 2 Thomas Christmas in Hawaii, and Part 3 Anderson Christmas in Chicago! Phew....it was fun and festive!

Here is Part 1....coincidentally the most calm and low-key that happened about 2 weeks before the actual Christmas...


We all headed out Warm Springs Rd to find Nana the perfect little Doug Fir. Even Tuck got in on the action!

We found it! Sky had fun trudging in the snow.

Time to drag the tree down. I think Skylar is waving :)

I got to drag the tree since it was my first time cutting down a real tree!


"Christmas" morning in E3. Stocking time!

Some fun opening gifts...highlights were play-doh and tools for Sky, snowshoes for me, and Swix gear for Lucas.

She's catching on to the this whole opening thing...
Dreaming of a White Christmas? Maybe the sucker was her actual favorite thing?

Helping Nana and Papa open their gifts too!

And just like that, we were off to the Big Island of Hawaii....Skylar's 9th state!

Lots of Fall Fun 2015

 So....I'm really behind on posting....but have lots of fun memories to catch up on.  Here are some of the Fall highlights!


Nana hosts dinner for Mimi and Papa Norm--and Sky's cowgirl boots. Yeehaw!!

Enjoying Nana's backyard and the fall weather.

Mimi and Sky!

Of course we did some Fall bike riding.

Halloween Hoopla! Sky wore part of her costume, part of the time! But she cherished this sucker...


Our little green dragon dinosaur (note: sucker still in hand)

Pretty scary

Enjoying the hoopla with Nana and Papa

Skylar's first pumpkin carving session. We stuck to the basics.

Toddler Halloween Party hosted by Sarita, Ben, and Van

Real deal trick-or-treating! And she got the hang of it pretty quick....saying, "Trick treat!" and "Thank you!"
Hitting the pavement for candy (with Van's baby of course)
2014 takes on 2015. A whole lot more hair this year!

Fall is for baking cookies with Nana! And tasting them :)
