Christmas Card Pictures

While we had Jordan with us, we had him take pics for our Christmas card.  I really wanted our new dog to be apart of the picture which made it extra challenging.  How come everyone else can get their dog to sit and pose for the perfect, All-American family photo?  It is hard enough to get all 3 boys to smile let alone get a puppy to be still.  Here are some of our attempts at a family pic:

 this is the one we chose :)

Ben's brother, Jordan, came for several days and we had so much fun.  He hardly had a moments peace, since the boys were constantly wanting to play with him.  He was such a trooper!!

This Thanksgiving was a little different for our family, because it was just the  5 of us.  I made a small turkey breast with broccoli cheese and rice and hashbrown casserole and pumpkin pie.  We had a good day of hanging out together and going to the park.

The next day we headed to the Houston Aquarium and had a blast!  The boys loved looking at everything, especially the white tiger.  We also went on the shark train which is where a train goes into a tank of sharks.  Landon and I went on the ferris wheel and had such fun together.  He wasn't scared at all of how high we went.
