It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas

We had a great December, with lots of fun activities to get us ready for Christmas. The boys loved everything about it!

Here are some of the fun things we did:

Who doesn't love a good Christmas craft?! :)

I love how differently they painted their ornaments!
They totally match their personalities.

Decorating the tree

Santa came to our ward party and
Isaac was so excited to see him!

Trevor was a little less excited...

...but he agreed to stand next to Santa. :)

Love these boys!

We went to see some amazing "dancing lights."

And, of course, cold weather means lots of snuggles.

Isaac liked helping me make peanut clusters.

We had a really fun night making gingerbread houses
with our good friends, the Speers and Mendozas.

I'm pretty sure most of the candy
ended up in their mouths...not on their houses.

Being silly with our friend, CheriAn. :)

The boys got special e-mail messages from Santa.

So much fun...and that's before Christmas even came! :)

Soccer Stars

The boys just finished their first season of soccer. They both enjoyed it...and it was very entertaining to watch! :)

Trevor - 3.5 years old

Isaac - 5 years old

Trevor got to have his cousin, Alex, on his team.
They were super cute together!

Oh man...I love this boy.

Cute Isaac and Daddy cheering Trevor on.

Isaac liked to "warm-up" with the little boys. :)

Our buddy, Sara, came to lots of games.
They loved having her there!

After each game, they got to run through a "parent tunnel."
I'm pretty sure this was their favorite part of the games.

Check out this sweet action shot! :)

Isaac's soccer trophy

He was THRILLED that he got a "real trophy!"
Cute boy.

(He won "Most Stealthlike Player") :)

Catching Up...Halloween

The boys loved every bit of Halloween. They are at such great ages for holidays. And what could be better than dressing up like a superhero and getting candy?! :)

Here's the rundown from this year's Halloween:

Ready to carve the pumpkin
Wait...who gave THAT boy a weapon?!

Pulling out the "pumpkin guts"

The mess was bugging Isaac a little,
but Trevor was had his whole arm inside the pumpkin!

Isaac got to design the face this year.
He wanted it to be "super scary!"

I love this picture!
They are too cute to be scary. :)

The finished product

HALLOWEEN NIGHT!

I made Halloween mac 'n cheese, grapes,
and mummy juice boxes for the boys.
They thought it was pretty awesome.

Isaac-Captain America

Trevor-also Captain America
(I tried to convince Trev to be a different superhero,
but he wanted to be whatever Isaac was.)

Superhero poses

They are such good buddies.

They handed out some candy before heading out.

Then it was off for some Trick-or-Treating!

Counting their "loot!"
