Christmas Eve

I haven't posted anything since Thanksgiving so I figured I should update now while I have a chance. Christmas Eve we spent with Josh's family.

Branson caught on to the whole opening presents thing right away.

Between his grandparents, uncles and aunts B is a spoiled boy.

He is in heaven with all of his new trucks.

Uncle Joel got a remote control helicopter. Branson isn't quite sure about it, but he felt safe hiding behind Uncle Jason

B was wound up by the time that we got home, we finally put him in bed hoping he would just fall asleep. After a while I went to check to see if he had fallen asleep and this is what I found. He was sound asleep, still holding onto one of his new trucks.

Thanksgiving

I haven't been very good at the whole taking pictures thing lately, but here are a few from our Thanksgiving.

Josh and I rotate holidays between my family and his. This year it was Thanksgiving at my parents house. Snow at their place is rare, especially on Thanksgiving, but it didn't stop us from attending the first annual Oly Trot and playing our traditional football game.

Joel joined us this year. Branson was happy about that since his Uncle Joel is one of his favorite people. He even learned a new word. Joel. It sounds more like "Goal," but I think Uncle Joel is proud of B's expanding vocabulary.

Here is B and another one of his favorite people, his daddy. They are watching a DVD about an offense that Josh is using for his team. Branson loved watching "ball" with his daddy. He just crawled right up and perched on Josh's arm. Doesn't he look cute in his Christmas pajamas from Grandma?!
