Thanksgiving!







How fun is Thanksgiving...I love how kick back it is! We started off the day watching Christopher be an all star in the "Beacon Hill Annual Turkey Ball"! The kids had a blast watching and running all over! It's lots of fun to watch all the guys from Young Men to...not so young get out there and have a good time!



Next, it's on to the light hanging, we do this every year on Thanksgiving, well....the last 2 years we were in my parents house and help with their lights. Ours being in storage for over 2 years, probably should have been checked out a little better before being hung. Christopher and Berklee got them all up and I'm not kidding it was just like the part in Christmas Vacation when he has all the family out side and does the drum roll and sadly enough they don't turn on...ya that was the Bennett Family this year!! Poor Christopher! But after a couple hours of fuse changing, they work! Well most of them that is!



Berklee and Mason enjoyed eating and playing with the cousins and Marlee had her first taste of food! Good Old Rice Cereal...yum...kinda! She did not know what to think! All in all it was a great day!!!

How Cute Is Erica!!




Ok...so Monday the Johnston Family came over for dinner and Family Night well, when we rented our Savage St. house we left some boxes in the garage and the fabulous renters (I'm hoping by accident) took our boxes when they moved out. As it turns out the boxes were most of my kitchen stuff, so Monday, while Erica and I were making dinner, I was making fun of myself

for only having 1 pot holder and 1 cookie sheet! Today Erica shows up at my door with this cute little gift of cookie sheets and a pot holder! She just totally made my day!! Thanks!!

Someone once said "Insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result." I guess you could say I'm insane! I leave Mase for maybe 3 minutes while I rotate the laundry....and come back to this scary sight! When am I going to learn, he's not Berklee!

Piano Lessons





Berklee had her first piano lesson today! It was so fun to take her to my cousin Heidi's house for lessons, I swear it was just yesterday that Heidi and I were going to Laurie's for lesson! Goodness time just goes!! Berklee loved it and can't wait to go back!

Our Sunday Hike

So here I go again, I think I'm catching on! Sunday was a beautiful day, so after church we packed some lunch and headed to the back yard and up our mountain. Berklee has named it Mt. Benny, no one know why! We had so much fun! We hiked up to the first set of towers which was actually very steep and hard, I was feeling the burn. Chris carried the 2 young'ens up most of the way! It was a such a beautiful view from the top! We are so blessed to live in such an amazing place!






1st post

So...Ta Da...here I am making my very first "post"! I don't really know what I'm doing and I have a 5 month old in one arm and a 6 year old danc'en around me singing cheeta-licious Christmas so...who knows if this will even make sense but, I'll try my hand at the blog world!
