Traditionnnnn. . . Tradition! (Sung by Tevte)

Here is the annual Black family trip into the mountains to cut down our own Christmas tree. This is a tradition that has been going on in the Black family for years, and we love to be a part of it. We had to tie the tree to the top of our car as we drove back from Idaho.

I don't know what it is, but I love this picture of Hazel. This is a look I frequently get. I'm glad that I finally have a picture of it!

Hazel's Hair Cut

Thanks for the haircut Auntie Heather!

All I want for Christmas is my 2 front teeth

A few days ago we noticed a tooth coming in behind one of Kimball's front baby teeth. After a trip to the dentist, he's now down 2. (Apparently it was 2 for 1 day at the dentist - Their only catch was that you still have to pay for both!)

Anyway, Kimball was excited to wake up this morning with 2 dollars, a note from the tooth ferry, and his teeth still in the little treasure chest that was given him by the dentist.

Out of the mouth of Hazel

Me: Hazel you can go potty by yourself you don't need my help.

Hazel: "Yes Mom, but I'm still growing little."

Happy Halloween

Andrew ended up going hunting in Idaho this weekend, he missed out on all the Halloween fun. Here are the costumes for this year. I couldn't get Hazel to keep on her wings. . . but when she ran around in her costume she did look like a little fairy fluttering around. Kimball was bothered that we never got a feather for his hat, or a little sword for him, but after I darkened his eyebrows with a little makeup he was fine.

The kids loved Trunk or Treating at the church.
