St. Patrick's

After the treasure hunt. 

I wasn't going to do a photo booth, but decided to last minute by taping paper plates to the wall. I'm adding a ton of pictures to show Tanner's personality.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

We tried a rainbow cloud experiment. 

 

 

New Year's Eve

This sums up our New Year's.

 



Christmas

The night before Christmas.....

Tanner doesn't sit still long. We had the missionaries over, and one of them said he has a 3 year old brother. I asked him if he's as crazy as Tanner, and he said without hesitation, no.

 

Leave it to Jayden to give his snowman poop. 

 

 

I don't really take pictures on Christmas Day anymore. It's a tornado of wrapping paper, and laughter, and excitement. We are so content to sit in our pj's all day, not caring about the mess, and no pressure to be anywhere. I love it.

A Night Uptown

We rode the train uptown to meet Josh for a night of fun. The train ride was not fun, Tanner was nuts, and cried a lot because he didn't want to sit in his seat.

 Playing in the fall leaves. It was a beautiful evening.

 

We love the singing Christmas bears. 

 

We brought Sidney's friend, Julia, with us because we were ending the night with girl's night. 

Oh my Tanner.... 

Jayden being a big brother. 

Josh's boss gave us 3 tickets to see a Cinderella play at the children's theater, which was really nice. Us girls enjoyed sitting on the second row right in the middle, it was awesome. The play was a version of Cinderella set in the 1920's. She was a dress designer, so of course Sidney loved it. It was a really cute play, with a lot of fun music and dancing. We all loved it.

 



Thanksgiving

For Thanksgiving we spent as just our family, and we always go to the movies, so we were able to go Thanksgiving Day this year to see The Good Dinosaur. Our theater recently installed fully reclining seats. It's awesome now, it was such a fun outing. Not our favorite movie by Disney, but it was cute. The kids all loved the recliners.

 

 



Halloween

I couldn't convince the kids to have a family theme this year. But that's ok, they were really happy with their costumes.

Darth Vader

This was the first time I decorated the car for trunk or treat, only because we had some decorations from Jayden's birthday. 

Sidney saw this butterfly costume on Pinterest, and it's what she really, really wanted. I think it's kind of funny because she's not super into butterflies or anything. She looked really cute. 

 

Tanner wore the baseball that Jayden wore at this age. 

Since the kids didn't want to match I made Josh be a hunter and a deer couple. 

After trunk or treat Tanner climbed into the trunk and started chowing down.

 

We went trick or treating with friends and when we got back they all dumped the candy on the floor. There was SO MUCH candy. We went home and weighed ours. 16 pounds! Crazy!
