Mall Christmas Pics

Bailey did not like sitting on Santa's lap, it was so funny. As soon as she got off his lap, she started waving and saying "bye" over and over

These pictures crack me up. There was a place in the mall doing free pictures, so we thought we'd try and the kids really let loose.
I don't know why Noah's giving the peace sign, but I thought it was super cute

Noah's Halloween Performance

Trick or Treat

This is Noah's school performance. He practiced at home and did it perfectly, but he gets so embarassed up in front of people that he closed his eyes the whole time and was cooky up there.

Noah's best bud, Ben

Bailey the kitty, Noah the scary dinosaur and Luke the timid bear

Noah with our poor, tolerant dog
This is one of the times they are actually getting along
Bailey was a dolphins cheerleader in the day, but we had to put a warmer costume on her that night. Luke was a crocodile in the day
