Winter Wonderland

These days are what fuels my soul and give me so much life. Spending all day with Fox, just having fun and meeting up with friends is just icing on the cake. 

My friend Kristy went to my favorite pumpkin patch this fall, we didn't end up going because it's such a far drive and we did a lot of pumpkin patches already, plus it was so hot this October. She told me that she saw signs that they also had a "Winter Wonderland" during the month of December, so we made plans to go. 

We met up early in the morning and it was a beautiful day. Timing was perfect, because on this day only, they brought in snow for sledding. Fox hasn't been in the snow since he was a baby, so this was really fun. 
They both did some sledding, but I didn't get any pictures, since we were too busy situating them on the sled and then pushing them down the hill. 


Snowball Fight!


The smile says it all!




The farm where this was held, is amazing. They have so much to do, playgrounds, carnival rides, hay rides, animals and a train. 

It got super warm, so it was time for an outfit change. Love the winter months in Arizona!

These boys had so much energy and were wild, running all over the place, giggling and playing. It was so fun to watch.

Not sure if that's a hug or a choke hold...ha!

The driver of the hay ride tractor asked them if they wanted to sit on the tractor and he didn't have to ask twice!

He even offered to let us moms jump in the picture, so nice of him, because that's the only picture we got of all of us.



It's always so crowded during their pumpkin season, but on this day, it was almost dead. So the boys got to ride these airplanes three times in a row.



They had a little restaurant with a patio there, so us moms even got to have a nice lunch, while the kids played on the patio after they were done eating. 


They kicked us out when they were closing, we had so much fun, we could've all stayed much longer!

Before we loaded up our dirty and happy kids into the car, we stopped by their christmas tree farm, where Fox declared that we needed a real christmas tree at our house. 


We settled on bringing these tree cuttings home instead. 

It was such a great day and definitely not our last time at this farm!

April phone dump

Some more pictures of our April. He's my bed hog, but I love sharing the bed with him and the way he comes find me in his sleep to snuggle up to me. Work Crew! Easter Preparations...it took me a solid hour to fill all the eggs. Finn chipped his permanent front tooth, and had to get it fixed. He was so brave. I tried to hold his hand to let him know I was there, and he kept giving me a thumbs up. Reading in bed with them is my favorite. We went to play mini golf, and it was an absolutely shit show. Just look at Finn in the background, he was on fire on this day. That's his "cool face". Not pictured are all the times he melted down because he wasn't "good enough". I really need to stop playing this game with him, because it happens every single time...haha.  Book Club! I wasn't a fan of the book, but it was great getting out and talking about books with other readers. He got into kinetic sand for a few weeks, and I felt like my floors were covered in s...

July iPhone dump

The rest of our July in pictures! Movie date with the boys! I took Finn and his best friend to the Aquarium one day, while Fox was at the allergist with Katie. They both had a blast. Trying to touch the sting rays... Sweet brotherly moment at a play place. One of my patients made this for me, and it made my day. It's now hanging from the mirror in my car, as a reminder how fragile life is. This kid kills me with his watermelons. He always wants to buy them, so he can help me cut them, but then won't eat them. When I pointed this out to him, he simply replied that I could take the watermelon to my co-workers again because they love it when I do.  Fox told me he is allergic to Goodwill and puts on this big act whenever I make them go. His throat starts to be itchy and he can't breathe. We might have to get him tested again...hahaha. We visited a lot of play places this summer to stay out of the heat. This was at a library and the kids played with this lite-brite forever. Finn...
