miss sis lost her first tooth!

which brings us to today...

trying to stay on top of school amidst the holiday madness!

love this little corner of my home: snowflake garland, seasonal holiday book display, and our new family pictures in wrapped canvas!

this is the book we are currently reading--love this version of A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens!

new stockings this year! i was tired of the mismatched ones we had and needed a new one for miss hayley anyway. i made them from this pattern by the lovely & talented miss camille roskelley over at thimble blossoms. i LOVE how they turned out! i just need to figure where to hang them. I don't have a mantel of any sort...

and my kids love these easy christmas treats! we made them with cousins!

so glad the holiday season is here! it is such a wonderful time of year, where we can be reminded of love, serving others, being grateful and celebrating the birth of our Savior! everywhere i turn this season is filled with warm, happy traditions! i love, love, love it! 

until the next post...follow us on instagram (errsuz) where i will try to do a better job of keeping up with recent happenings!

happy holidays!!

here's the hubby's work halloween party. they always go all out, which is fun and crazy. 

this is the line to go in...

where's waldo? THERE he is:)

snakes, spiders and scorpions...

loved these guy's costumes, the mom and dad where mrs and mr potato head and their triplets were the little aliens from toy story!

this is our seventh year doing this, and it was a little scarier then they've done in the past. didn't love that my baby was screaming because a lot of it was too dark. didn't love the bloody sheets and zombies. c'mon people...these are little kids going through! my hubby attributed it to a lot of new employees who didn't know how it's usually done.

child friendly angry birds... thank you

haunted farm... those are our pumpkins on display and our slide!

btw, this is all inside the office...:) happy cleaning

alice in wonderland
