family time

santa & mrs claus puppies under the tree
lucy was tasting the stockings, uh oh.

the tree is up! after someone broke the two strands of lights and a quick trip to target!

and the newest santa baby

a visit to the farm

mia met a llama... ok an alpaca... they wanted to get closer to her, but she wanted to bite them :)

lucy & mia met santa and mrs claus!

it's CHRISTMAS tree time!

scary.
we found our perfect tree!

we will never be able to get all four of us looking at the same time. bummer!

fav photo- the girls were obsessed with the tree!

lucy the KANGAROO JUMPER!

well, it happened... we caught lucy jumping from the ottoman (3 feet away) up to the bed (another foot or two higher) all on her own. she uses her kangaroo hind legs to jump to the bed and then uses her ninja skills to climb the blankets.

thankful playdate

fruitful bounty cornacopia, so cute!
we are thankful for our friends

thankful tree, mayflower boats and more!

trick or treat night

beaver lake enchanted forest

Brian and I joined some friends for a fun, non spooky halloween event. A local nature preserve called beaver lake hosts a beautiful trail lined with pumpkins event. People can donate their carved pumpkins to go on the trail, and they light them all up to be seen through the night.

I love my babies. seperate. and together.

possibly the sweetest, melt-your-heart photo ever :)
this photo really captures mia's thoughtful eyes

and lucy!

random moments of Kistler Family Crazyness

do the puppy dance

I was lucky enough to catch some very candid puppy dance moments between mia and lucy. they love each other to pieces, this is their version of rough housing :)
