The Biggest Catch Up Blog Post. Ever.

So I can verify that the longer you put something off, the harder it is to actually get it done. So, in order to begin to catch up to our current life, I will attempt to summarize the last part of 2013 into one blog post, without making it super-long. We'll see how that goes...

So let's see...way back in September, the four of us ventured out west to Jackson Hole for Graye and Cameron's amazing wedding. Quick trip, but so fun to be in Jackson!
Fun on the town square!

Family time at the top of the tram

The ladies

Beautiful view of the valley

Next up, we had fun picking pumpkins at the Corn Maze!
Olson talked about his white ice cream for weeks 
Enjoying the hay ride

Olson loved playing in the corn pit

Liddy Costen loved the animals


And if we're picking pumpkins, that must mean Olson's birthday is here! Our little sweetheart turned 3!
It was a very Thomas birthday 


Yummy cake with make-shift candles!

Olson loved his "red" cake!


And Mommy completed her 5th half marathon of the year! Couldn't have done it without these little cheerleaders!!

We drove to St Louis for Thanksgiving...what a trip! After a quick trip to Urgent Care, we had fun at the Missouri Botanical Garden watching the trains and admiring the beautiful flowers!
She was such a trooper!


Of course Olson LOVED the trains!

Liddy Costen preferred sitting among the pretty plants

Family fun!

And of course, Thanksgiving brings us to Christmas time! We certainly had a busy holiday season...picking out the tree, hospital visits, and of course, SANTA!


What about this one?


Sitting in the sleigh!

I wonder what Woofie asked for?

This year Olson liked Santa...Liddy Costen, not so much.

He did enjoy the ride in the wagon!
Oh boy Santa came!!

Olson loved Spencer and his railroad crossing!

Enjoying round two of presents
Enjoying trains, a video, and a grilled cheese during hospital visit #2


So in a nutshell, we have the last part of 2013! Let's hope I can catch up, and keep up, in 2014! Although, I wouldn't hold your breath...
