Donnie and Liliana went to Home Depot and just could not resist buying this adorable little tree for this years Christmas season.  :) (Notice Noah wearing homemade Batman mask #2)

Elia's face is priceless as she tries to figure out what in the world we are doing!  :)

Wednesday, November 30th

Because of all the damage to our trees from the snow storm, Alfred back in October, we had our trees raised up and a few dead ones removed.  The men worked for 2 short days and the yard looks HUGE now!  Here is Noah watching them move the boom into the yard... they were not supposed to make 2 long trenches in our lawn... oh, well... yikes!  :)

A candy cane in one hand and Noah's tooth brush in the other!  Way to enjoy sugar and care for those teeth at the same time!  haha!

OOOOOh, lights, pretty, wow!

Friday, December 2nd

Noah was Superman the entire day, everywhere we went!

Superman, Elia and I, along with our neighbor friends, had a blast at the Lutz.

After the Lutz, we went to Kim's friend, Sherry's hot dog cart on Main street and enjoyed some delicious kielbasa... Superman was a star everywhere we went, even the garbage truck men were shouting out happily to him!  :)

Earlier in the week, me, Noah and Elia went to Kohl's to shop for Daddy for Christmas and spend some Kohl's cash and Noah picked this shirt out for Donnie.  He was so proud to buy this for him!  As soon as we got home, he ran and put it under the Christmas tree and as soon as Donnie came to the door an hour or so later, Noah ran and retrieved the shirt from under the tree and brought it to show Donnie!  haha!  :)  Donnie has worn it most days since... Mommy has it as top priority in the laundry piles.

Here they are prepping for a Batman story before bed... Daddy is tired... awe!

FUN day!

Elia is a big-time climber...

Noah's "real" costume came in the mail the day before and I gave it to him today...

Elia does this sweet little eye-blinking thing... adorable!!!

Batman and his super-hero sister.

Climber!  I have to leave my office chair pulled away from my desk so she doesn't get into everything up there.

I had to get something out of my room and found Noah sleeping with this mask over his eyes but by the time I retrieved my camera he had tossed a bit and moved it up... he is sleeping with the Batman book from the library.

 We baked sugar cookies and the kids had a blast decorating them at about 10 a.m.... here they are... see the little mouse in his heaven?... haha!  :)

Braids

Liliana braided my hair tonight! I love when people brush, fix, or even touch my hair and this was extra special because it was our big girl working her little finger to make 2 beautiful braids!!! Love you so much little bear! :)

Candy Cane loving Capps we are!

We LOVE candy canes... And Elia quickly caught on to this. She yells when she sees one. We have them on our tree and each partake of one each day! Sweet Christmas traditions!!! :)

Project 365 Week 48

Sunday, November 20th

It was gorgeous outside, so we headed out after church in hopes of capturing some good pictures for our Christmas card...

I bought these 3 beautiful Lolly-pops a month at Cracker Barrel when we went there with Aunt Patsy with the idea of some cute photos of the kids enjoying them... and BOY, did Elia enjoy hers!  haha!  she straight away started banging it on the rock to smithereens!  I DID NOT see that coming!  :)

As Mommy was desperately trying to get a good shot of ALL 3 kids looking at the camera AT THE MIRACULOUS SAME TIME... SMILING, even... The kids jut start waving their Lolly-pops in the air singing "Hosanna, Hosanna, Hosanna in the highest" at the top of their lungs all filled with laughter!  It was the best moment!  This is way more priceless than any "perfect" picture!!!

Monday, November 21st

I baked a pie with the many apples that were just waiting and waiting for me to get around to them...

Liliana read her first book all the way through!!!  SO PROUD OF HER and very excited about them life-time of reading ahead of her... it is like riding a bike... once you get it, you are off!

I made chocolate pudding pies - YUM ... and the kids were crazy over them!  :)

Thanksgiving Day!

We spent the morning at our house.  I baked my first ham and some sides to bring over to the neighbors across the street at noon for the big feast!

I made up a turkey hat craft for the kids to do... this is the sweetest little boy in the whole entire universe, ever!!!  I LOVE YOU SO MUCH Noah Jack Capps!

HAPPY 4th BIRTHDAY, Noah!!!  :)

We had a simple, special, sweet, cozy family day at home... will post more separately. 

Here he is with his much awaited present... a string guitar! 

Noah's birthday, was another gorgeous day, so we spent some time outside playing while Daddy raked.

Noah "feeding" the birds. 

Noah taught Elia how to hit the ball with a stick.

Leave Lovin!  :)

Liliana was the "scarecrow".  Last week they watched The Wizard of Oz a few times... the LOVED it!
