Chloe's 1st Letter to Santa

Every year I get a little excited about the holidays. Shane & I really get into hosting Thanksgiving feast for the family. The day after I drive Shane crazy pulling out all the Christmas decorations!  But this year will be even more fun because Chloe is really starting to understand what the holidays are all about. We've lived in our house for 5 1/2 years and never used the fireplace. But this year we had to get the chimney ready for Santa Claus! Which led to a letter to Santa from Chloe with Jillian. I'm sure it won't be the last letter, but I had to post since it was her first ever! 

Grandma Clara's 80th Birthday

On our way to Grandma's birthday celebration, Chloe had Cheetos for the first time. Chloe thought her orange fingers were funny! 

Dad flew Uncle Rick to Arkansas as a suprise birthay gift to Grandma Clara! 

I think Grandma is still recovering from the shock of the suprise in this picture

The farm really looked beautiful this weekend. The fall foliage was gorgeous! 

Chloe says, "Don't worry, I can do it because I'm big!" Me: "When did you get so big?" Chloe: "Last Tuesday!"
