One of our favorite things to do in Ohio is go to Clifton Mills at Christmas!  It is absolutely breath-taking!  We love the whole experience!  We will miss Clifton in December!  We are looking forward to having breakfast there before we leave!

December 1, 2012 - Ryan's Football Party

 

Ryan's football team had their End of the Year Party at the Chandler's house for the fifth year in a row.  It was a great time!  Ryan gets emotional each time a sport ends!  Ryan becomes emotional vested in everything he does...his heart is always in everything!  We are so proud of you, Ryan!  You played like a Champion!  We can't wait to see what the future has in store for you!!

December 1, 2012 - Family Pictures

 

We needed a Christmas Card Picture.  We tried to get a picture with the Budweiser Horses but they were not on base when they were suppose to and we chose not to wait.  So we came home...Ryan figured out how to work the timer and we took a great family picture!  Even Stella behaved!

November 30, 2012 - Ryan is trying to do his homework...

Ryan came down with a fever on Wednesday night...it continued on Thursday (where he slept all day).  On Friday, he started off feeling better and tried to do his homework...but that didn't last long!  He feel asleep reading...that might happen when he is well too! :)

November 26, 2012 - Ryan lost a tooth!

 

We don't think Ryan lost a tooth since Kindergarten!  He does not like the feeling of a loose tooth...he won't eat anything!  His tooth finally came out!  Later, Ryan captured a picture of Stella snuggling with Mom!  Stella loves to snuggle!

November 22, 2012 - Thanksgiving Weekend

Ryan loves playing poker, so that is a holiday tradition for us!  We played on Thanksgiving!  Ryan is turning into a card shark!

November 16-18, 2012 - Hunting Trip

 

 

 

 

 

Jeremy wanted to take Ryan on hunting trip, so we booked the trip in January 2012!  The two of them were so excited to go!  This was the first guided hunt for either of the boys.  The first night, Ryan and the other youth hunters made their own playing cards and entertained themselves!  Ryan was so lucky to see an 8-point first thing Saturday morning!  He didn't hesitate and took the shot!  It was a great shot and Ryan harvested his first buck!  Jeremy was so proud of his son!  Ryan was so thrilled!  I loved that the boys spent such quality time together!  Now, on Sunday, Ryan was more into sleeping than hunting!  I love that boy!!
