Christmas Parades!!
Saturday morning we went to our little downtown for the Christmas Parade this morning. The boys were invited to ride on a "float" for the parade. H & P were in heaven!! Kit (the husbands) rode with the kids and Wells & I were waiting with the other wives on the sidewalk.
Then afterwards we hung around downtown with our friends Jackson & Mason! They rode the "train", did the spider trampoline & rock wall. H&P blew us all away with wanting to do the trampoline. They threw caution to the wind and did it and h actually went really high! Proud momma moment. P giggled & had a great time!
Then after naps we went back out to another parade in McDonough at the square. I think we were all in bed at 9! Haha
P took this one!!
A fun weekend to start off the Christmas season!! :)

My 29th bday!
I had a great birthday! Kit took the day off and we enjoyed the day getting our Christmas tree and having a pizza party in the evening :).
I laughed out loud when I opened my cookie cake! ;). It was delicious!!
Gifts from my boys! :)

2nd Annual Cadwallader Christmas Tree Hunt
We got our Christmas Tree today! Last year we had such a great time getting a tree, we couldn't wait to do it again! This year the boys were so enthusiastic about going to find the "perfect" tree. Amazing the difference in a year...so glad we have Wellsie with us!! We dressed a little too "warm" for today. It's gorgeous. 66 and sunny. Still seems weird not needing to be bundle up & it's Christmas time. :)
Hide-N-Seek in the trees!
Pman running!
Me & My boys!
We finally found the perfect tree for this year!! :). Kit & the boys.
Kit cutting the tree down. An Employee at the farm said he's never seen someone cut the tree down so fast! :)
Loaded up ready to go!
Perfect asked, "Momma take a bic-ture of po-ter and 'dis baby tree"

Random {brain dump} post :)
I am such a sorry blogger lately! Not sure if anyone still reads this anyway???
Either it's crazy chaos, someone needs something, someone is in trouble, someone hit someone, someone spilled something, yada yada, you get the picture.:). I seem to always be moving all during the day anymore and spend the days constantly picking up and cleaning up. AND, if there is any quiet time after all that, I just sit on the couch, with my feet up in complete silence ;)....because for sure when I put my feet up, someone is sure to wake up or need something in 2.5 seconds and the day continues on! haha!! It's busy. But I wouldn't have it any other way!
But really, it's a lot of fun around here...most days! ;). It's been six months since we've added Wells and I feel like it really does take every bit of six months when you add someone new to the family for everyone to get adjusted and somewhat settled. I think we are finally there. It's getting much easier to get everyone out the door, and keep the house in somewhat order. The reality is there is a certain level of productivity that HAS to get done everyday to keep us all moving smoothly. No more "lazy days"...that will come back to bite me. I hope that doesn't sound like complaining because I'm not, just stating we've finally been able to reach that "exhale"and "I think we might just make it" moments.
Henry. Henry is LOVING school & was starting to get worried during "Thanksgiving break" that school was over for good & he was SO sad. He's a big fan of getting dropped off and picked up through the car line, playing with his friends, snack time, chapel and oh yeah, a little learning here and there. Henry's teacher is a BIG fan of finger painting & glitter and he brings home some of the cutest little things!! We love Miss Shauna and you can always hear Henry telling Porter on a school morning, "Hurry up, Porter, Miss Shauna is waiting on me & I don't want to be late!!!" Henry has really been a great help to us lately. Eager to help his brothers and ALWAYS talking to Wells and playing with him on the floor. Super sweet. He has a servants heart...most days ;).
Porter. Porter is two. Porter is Mr. Independent. Porter is Passionate, that's the best way to describe him. That boy knows what he wants and I can't wait to see what he does with all that passion, energy and drive...may it be used as a strong leader for his family and driven for the Lord. Porter loves to be the center of attention, loves to wrestle, & loves his food :). When that boy actually stops moving for a second to give me a hug and put his head on my shoulder, I melt. He also is my shopper. He's the most willing of the boys and it gives him & I some good one on one time :).
Wells. Sweet boy who always has a smile. Quiet & calm but really, he has no choice but to be! ha! He's very entertained watching H&P and often doesn't voice his opinion unless he needs changed or is ready for a nap.
So, that's the boys.
Kit just had his 30th bday and is keeping busy at work. He has most Fridays off until the end of the year...woohoo!! :) The new year will be bringing Kit a new position with his job, something we are both excited about and pray is a good fit for him at the Griffin plant.
My birthday is Friday. Henry is THRILLED my birthday is coming up bc that means his is next!!! Poor kid has the "last" in our family for a birthday by the calendar. He's waited FOREVER to turn FOUR. ha! ha!
Our Mantle is decorated for Christmas, half the outside of the house is done and that's all the further we've gotten. Maybe this weekend we'll do the tree and some more outside. We'll see :).
My Friend, Lindsay, is having her second baby and I. AM. SO. EXCITED for them!!! I can not wait!!! :)
I recently have had a little addiction with nail polish. I love it. Just a little pick me up at the end of the day when all the boys are tucked in bed gives me a few minutes to breathe and relax :).
I LOVE my life planner. It was definitely a little pricey but I love it. Use it all day long!
I think that's all for today's brain dump, randomness ;). And hey! I made it a whole post without getting interrupted. Yay!! :)
