Catching Up

I've been slacking in the blogging department lately so I'll post a few pictures from the past month or so to try to catch up. One rainy, cold Saturday, Krista and I thought it would be fun to take the kids bowling. I'm not a bowler myself, I've never liked it. I don't know why I thought it would be fun to take Charlotte. After a couple turns, I didn't want to be there anymore and as you can see from the picture, I'm not even really sure the kids were all that into it. I don't see me rushing back anytime soon. :)


We also went out to Royalston to celebrate Charlotte's cousin Emma's 7th birthday. Charlotte loves birthday parties. When the birthday song was over, Charlotte kept saying "again". She wanted to keep singing I guess. Here's a picture of all the Landry cousins.


My family has a tradition of cutting down Christmas trees the day after Thanksgiving. This year it was raining and cold. The farm was full of mud but we all managed to find trees anyway. The kids seemed to have a good time and not even notice the bad weather. Here they are before they came home covered in mud. Oh, and Charlotte, who was bundled in many layers, decided to mess her diaper in the middle of everything. Thanks to Auntie Krista who took her back to the car to change her so I could find a tree. Total chaos!! LOL


This past weekend, Santa made a visit to the Gardner Museum for the Festival of Trees. I took Charlotte knowing she wasn't going to like it but figured every kid has to at least try to see Santa. Much to my surprise, when we walked in the door, Charlotte immediately went for the room Santa was in and cried because we had to wait in line. We finally made it up to the front and Charlotte gave just the reaction I expected:
