Christmas is my favorite time

This year the boys were angels for the Church Christmas Show. It was really fun to watch them perform. However, I'm not sure the really knew the words to "Away in A Manger"...they looked cute though.

The boys friend, Evan, sat with us for the show until it was time to perform. Someone asked if they could take a picture of all of us.

As is a Christmas tradition for many families, we open pajamas on Christmas Eve. I think you can tell by the pure joy that is on Micah's face that he LOVED the Batman PJ's he got...Noah got the same pair and I'm fairly certain that unless we make them, they won't take them off.

A show of their cute new outfits...shirts adorned with Super Hero's of course. Noah has Batman and Micah has Spiderman.

This was the boys showing off their Batman moves in the kitchen in their new PJ's

Love these boys

I have not been very good about posting and keeping up with what is going on in our lives!

Here are just three fun pictures I snapped of life with our boys. It is good, it goes by too fast, but we are loving every minute of it.

Although they look like Zorro, this was an attempt at making "Batman" masks for them with whatever black fabric I could find in my stash. They have a lot of fun with these still. And of course, capes are a must for any little boy. They choose blue if they want to be Batman that day or red if they are feeling Superman-ish that day.

Often the boys will wake up in the middle of the night and come to our bedroom. They usually end up sleeping on the floor and when I get up I'll let them get into bed with Dad. However, on this day, both boys were in bed and when I was leaving this is how cute they looked...

Happy Halloween! We had a lot of fun with these...and still do. Micah wears his Spiderman costume everyday...I'm not joking- he really does wear it everyday!

Soccer!

I didn't realize how long it has been since I posted something. The boys have been playing soccer on Saturday mornings. It's been really fun. It's a skills session so they can learn and then at the end of each week they get to play short scrimmages.

However, the first week this is what Micah wanted to do instead...

Noah making a goal...YEAH!

Always important to do some stretching before the big game.

Warming up with some jumping jacks.

New School Year...

Last week was Micah and Noah's first days of school. For Noah this was old hat, having already done this last year, but for Micah it was full of new beginnings. He is in the morning class at school and there are 14 other kids in his class. He told me the morning of his first day that he planned on making new friends, but didn't want any girls in his class...silly boy!

Noah is so excited. He got a new backpack this year with Bumblebee on it from Transformers.

And Micah giving his brother a big hug before school. They go on different days. Noah goes Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Micah goes Tuesday, Thursday. I wish I could explain the helmet, but I figure if he likes wearing it, at least he'll have it on when he is riding his bike.

The teacher sent us this picture of Micah's first day in school. Looks like everyone is having fun! But, seriously,when did they grown up enough to be going to school??
