Our Thanksgiving Weekend ... In photos!


I have finally gained my energy back from my Black Friday shopping trip (Never, ever, will I shop at midnight - NEVER). So, I finally took the time to download our photos from such a fun weekend. As always, we spent time with both of our families. We spent time with the Bixler's at Justin's parents home (Jackson loved decorating Pop's Christmas tree)...and as always, my family spent the weekend downtown Indianapolis for the lighting of the Circle of Lights. Our weekend was full of family, love, and laughter - all the things we are thankful for.

Enjoy some photos from our weekend.

Singing Christmas Carol's - love that he knows the words this year.

The Bixler Family at the Tree Lighting...


According to my Mom, my family has been coming to the tree-lighting for 35 years (According to Mom, we missed a year when Michelle was in high school.) I truly love this tradition. :)

Played with his COUSINS until Midnight...I was still going on no sleep from Black Friday!
You should never stay at a hotel without your best Budy! Jackson sure does love Livy!

Swimming with Cousins!
I found this photo on The Star.com It is my new favorite. Love! It was taken in 1963.

Is it too early for Christmas Trees?


Just a quick photo of the latest addition to our collection of Christmas trees. A sports tree for Jackson!

I know its a little early for Christmas trees- but the holidays are so fun with Jackson!

Let the Holidays Begin...



Many stores are playing Christmas carols, I've already purchased Jackson's Christmas PJ's, and Justin and I both are constantly reminding Jackson that "Santa is watching." The holidays have already begun....

So this past weekend, we celebrated with the arrival of "The Big Guy" at Hamilton Town Center. There was a band, the Pacemates, Boomer, snacks, and Jackson's Favorite...SANTA CLAUS!

Check out a few photos we snapped from a very fun night!

A Cake Walk Pro!


Last week, Aunt Shel and Uncle Tom took Jackson to the Lantern Road Elementary School Carnival! I loved school carnivals when I was young and knew Jackson would too.

Turns out he is a pro at the Cake Walk, loved the bounce house...AND apparently loved the photo-booth! Loved the photo-strips he brought home. The have been tucked away for keeping!

A big thanks to Olivia and Madeline who help make Jackson's night so fun!

Is he a senior in high school?


Looking back at Halloween photos once more tonight.
I realized I forgot to share my very favorite.



I feel like I will have a photo with this very same pose 13-14 years from now! :)
