In December we got a whopping 6 inches of snow!  That's an incredible amount for Alabama - the kids got a couple of snow days out of it and had a blast.  Check out the pics and also the video below!

We took our Christmas Card pictures at Baker Farms this year.  We couldn't fit them all on the card, so wanted to share the rest.  Also, I'm not sure getting 3 kids to look at the camera and smile simultaneously is possible!

Over Thanksgiving break, we took a quick weekend trip first stopping in Auburn, for the Lousiana-Monroe game, then on to Atlanta to see the Georgia Aquarium.  Next, we hit Stone Mountain for 2 days, checking out the sites and Snow Mountain.  For the holiday season, "Snow Mountain" has manufactured snow and areas for tube sliding and snow play.  It also has a Christmas Village that is the most Christmas thing ever (outside of Christmas).  The kids loved it, especially Sadie, who I'm pretty sure was smiling the entire time.  This might be an annual holiday destination - it was great!  Check out the pics!

Colt wrapped up his fall season this past weekend.  He played once again with the Pele Academy at Vestavia Hills Soccer Club and was a member of the Alabama Pride's Pre-Pride squad this fall.  His VHSC club team finished with 4 wins, 2 draws, and 4 losses against some stiff competition across the state - often against older teams.  With the Alabama Pride, Colt is a member of the "Pre-Pride" group which is a feeder program for the Alabama Pride program, which consists of elite talent across the state.  His Pride team is mostly training, but they did play 1 game to finish off the fall session, which they won 4-3.

We had a fun Halloween this year.  Colt was a knight, Sadie went as Disney's Princess Sophia, and Finley was the famous explorer, Dora.  They had lots of fun trick-or-treating around the neighborhood and I'm still snacking on all the candy they brought home!  Click the pic to see our Halloween pictures.
