Christmas Tree

I totally uploaded these pictures backwards. Oh well. We got our Christmas tree this weekend. We have been going to the same place for 3 years now, and always find a great tree. This tree farm is in a lady's backyard here in town. She has a great view of the mountains, and we just really like that she has a large variety of sizes, and types of trees. Plus they always live through the holidays and don't smell like trash (don't ask, we just had a tree from some charity that smelled like trash one year...ICK! Then it died before Christmas even got here...that was a bonus I guess)

Hailey got to help decorate the tree for the first time, and she did really good. She even put the angel on the top of the tree, with help of course. Sweet girl!

Hailey likes horses, and his lady's neighbor has some. They were what Hailey enjoyed most about getting the tree. The whole time we were cutting down the tree she said "can we go see those horses?"

Pony Tails

Looks like my little girl is growing up. Her hair is finally long enough to put into a decent pony tail. *Sniff sniff* Where has the time gone?

Hailey Christmas Pictures

Here are a few pictures we are going to use in our Christmas card this year. Hailey is soooo cute!

Trick-or-Treat

Hailey had her first real Halloween where she got to actually go trick-or-treating. It's always super cold here at Halloween, and most of the time it's very windy. So this was the first time we felt that Hailey and her little immune system could finally handle the cold. My grandma, my Gumun, made Hailey a white kitty costume for Halloween so she could stay really warm. That really worked out, because Hailey's favorite movie right now is AristoCats, and the mama kitty on there is Dutches, she is all white.

Hailey had a fantastic time trick-or-treating. We had watched "It's The Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown" and Hailey LOVED it, L-O-V-E-D loved it. We literally watched it 15-20 times this year. They say "tricks or treats" and Hailey was a little confused about how to say trick-or-treat. But after she said it the first time, got candy in her little pumpkin, then looked up at her dad with those huge blue eyes and said "Daddy I want MORE candy" with such determination. After that, she was ready to power through the whole Adams strip and get lots of candy. She walked the whole way and had a huge smile on her face and a pumpkin full of candy in tow. It was awesome. Funny part is, she doesn't really like sweets too much, so it's just sitting in the top cabinet waiting to be eaten. LOL! Oh well, we made fabulous memories, that is all that matters.

When you are dressed like a kitty, you must act like a kitty

The First Snow of the Season

October 29th was the first snow of this season. Well, the first snow that stuck for a little while. So pretty when it snows. I'll let the snow speak for itself. Beautiful! =)

Fall Pictures

Some fall pictures of Hailey Adelle. My Aunt Lynne has a huge old tree in her front yard, and she let us take some cute fall pictures of our little monkey. They came out pretty good, I think.

The Cousins

Over the weekend we had my two little cousins, Nick and Elise. They stayed the night Friday night and had a good time playing with Hailey. We played outside for a while on Saturday and threw the "Chuck-It" for Cody. It was super windy (it's ALWAYS windy at our house) and pretty cold, so we only played outside for a little while. Turns out Nick's friend from school lives next door to us, and they took up a game of dodge ball. Trevor joined in. After Hailey's nap, we did a project with the laminater and leaves. I printed out little sayings to laminate with the leaves, and Hailey had a hard time reading what they said. We had a good time and enjoyed having the extra bodies here.
