Tis the Season..

Well with Thanksgiving here and gone, the holiday season has arrived. We've had such a busy but fun weekend. It started on Thursday- Thanksgiving.. First we went to Tim's aunts house, then went to my Grandma's later that afternoon for another feast :) All of my family was there, it was so fun to see everyone, especially my cousins new little (but very chubby) baby boy.. he's just 3 weeks older than Mckray! Here's a picture of Mckray and Bryson laying on the floor, they can't play with eachother yet, but give them a year and they'll be out of control! :)

After we were all done eating, the men watched the football game, while the girls looked thru the ads for "BLACK FRIDAY" Its a tradition for all of us girls to go shopping the day after Thanksgiving for all of the awesome deals!

So with our shopping lists at hand, we woke up at about 3:00 am Friday morning and headed for Provo. Sears was our first stop, followed by Kmart, JC Penny, a bunch of little stores in the mall, Target, Shopko, Babies R us and Roxy/Quiksilver.. In between all of this, we went and ate at IHOP- I LOVE their pancakes. So here's a picture of everyone at breakfast- I had to take the picture with my phone since I had left my camera at home.

Well after a 12 hour day of shopping we were all SO tired and ready to go home..

Saturday Tim and I woke up, he made me breakfast (he's just so dang sweet) then we got all bundled up to go and cut down our Christmas tree! We met Lacee and Colter and my mom and dad in Fairview and drove to the place where we could get our trees. After hiking the side of the mountain we finally found one, and I LOVE it! Afterwards, Tim went trap shooting while Mckray and I stayed at my moms and helped her put up her Christmas decorations. When Tim was done shooting he picked us up, we went home and got ready for the Mt. Pleasant lighting. Mt. Pleasant did a new thing this year, they had closed Main Street, and all of the businesses did little games, Santa was there, a choir and hot chocolate.. So we bundled up once again and headed for Main Street. Here is a picture of Mckray all bundled, he was so snuggly!!!

When we got home from the lighting, we put our tree up, and decorated it- It was so much fun.. the whole time Mckray just sat there and looked at the lights, his eyes were so big!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Just wanted to wish you all a Happy Thanksgiving.. and tell you how grateful I am for each of you and your friendship. I feel so blessed to be surrounded by such wonderful family and friends who are so good to me. Especially my wonderful husband who would do anything for Mckray and I. I am so grateful for my Heavenly Father and the blessings he has been gracious enough to give to me and my family. I hope that you all have a safe and happy Thanksgiving! :)

Family pictures and one AMAZING husband!

A couple of weeks ago, we had our family pictures taken with Tims family. Well we finally got them back yesterday, so last night was a reconstruction night at the Beesley home! I had everything pulled off of the walls so we could rearrange and put our new family pictures up, plus I added a few new decorations. If any of you know Tim.. he hates change, especially when I'm changing things in the house every few months (I can't help it! :), needless to say he was NOT very excited when I told him our plans for the evening! But he just took a deep breath and headed for his tools!

So here are some of our family pictures..

And here are the pictures of our evening of measuring, hammering and hanging!

My poor husband- You can see how much fun he's having with me directing orders.. He's such a trooper! Love you babe!!

I know I'm cheesing it, but I'm so excited to have everything all hung up!

This is half of the mess that we were dealing with.. I'm surprised nothing got stepped on.

Opposed from his daddy, Mckray is having a good time- STILL sucking that thumb!

And here is the finished product- just the two walls in the living room that we added to.

Thanks babe, for all of your help- You're the BEST!!

*The backpack... or is it a frontpack??*

Last night Tim and I were trying to cook dinner and Mckray would not stop fussing- He just wanted to be held, and its a little hard to cook with a 14 pound baby in your arms... So out of nowhere Tim gets all excited and says I have an idea, so he runs into Kray's room and brings out this backpack-frontpack thing that I got from my shower, and does this evil laugh thing, like "I'm so brilliant!" Anyway, he puts Mckray in it, and instantly this boy is happy! And of course, Tim is so proud of himself, because "dad made him stop crying" (anyone else's husband do this?)

It was so cute though, they were just hanging out, helping me in the kitchen- so I had to take a couple of pictures!

This shows you how much Kray enjoyed it-- Enough to fall asleep in it! : )

Sleep...YAHOO!!

Last night Mckray slept through the night for the first time! YAY!! He slept from 10:30 until about 8:00 this morning! And I finally got to sleep through the night.. Man it feels good! What a good baby! Love you Kray-bug! <3

Aibree Dawn

This is my beautiful new niece!! Lacee had her baby yesterday, her name is Aibree Dawn! (Dawn after me :) ) She was born at 5:53 pm, she weighed 5 pounds, 6 ounces and was 17 1/2 inches long! She is BEAUTIFUL! I can't believe how tiny she is.. After holding my 14 pound bundle of joy, she feels like nothing!

This is just right after she was born.. (I'm pretty sure my sister is going to kill me for posting this picture!)

These were taken today when I went and visited them in the hospital.. Aibree's face isn't as swollen as it was yesterday.. Yes, this is a newborn diaper.. She is seriously so small!!

My mom, Me, Lacee, Aibree and Grandma Connie

So Mckray was a horse for his first halloween. It was such a busy day for us.. first thing that morning I took him down to Peterson Studios to get his picture taken in his costume since they do a Halloween special for little kids. Once Tim got home from work, we hurried and got him dressed up again and went Trick-or-Treating to family members. First we went to Aunt Shirleys, then Grandma Beesley's, then my parents, lastly we went to Tim's parents. It was so fun to take him out to see everyone and everyone was so excited to see him in his little costume. Here are some pictures of Mckray at the places we went...

This is at Tim's mom and dads-
