I can't believe it's been 2 months since I wrote in here. Sorry about that. We've had two holidays since then and they were both great. We're all moved into our new place and pretty much settled in. I really like it. People think I'm strange because I only leave the house once or twice a week but I like it that way. I don't get cabin fever. I love spending time with Michael, taking him to the library, cooking and reading. It's so quiet and pretty out here, how can I not love it. I sure don't miss the city that's for sure. Hated the traffic and I am reminded of that every weekend when we go to Anchorage to see Michael's family. We usually stay the night in town at their house at least one night on the weekends.
Halloween was fun. Of course Halloween in Alaska is always really cold so indoor trick or treating is the best for the little ones. Michael was of course Thomas the Train this year. He saw it in the store and that was it, he had to have it. We went with my sister in law to her husbands office building and the kids got TONS of candy. Michael had so much fun and was pooped and didn't even want to go to anyones house.
We also had Thanksgiving at the Hills. (Michael's sister Hope and her husband Ben) I look forward to that every year. We love it there. Ben's family was here this year too so we had a ton of fun and then we kidnapped his 2 sons and step brother and took them to play cards. It was a blast.
After that long weekend we managed to get up our Christmas tree and Little Michael had so much fun we let him put all the ornaments on. You should have seen all the little bunches. It think he put like 6 ornaments on one spot but we don't care. Gaudy and gorgeous. He says it's beautiful and sparkly. He is really becoming quite the ham. He loves to dance and sing and show off. Wonder where he gets that from, hehe.
If you want to see more videos of him you can check out our youtube..

We have gotten lots of snow. It's been in the negative temperatures the last few days. BRRRR!!
Here is a couple pictures of our yard.
We are still hoping to go to Washington next summer but we will have to wait and see. Miss you all terribly and can't wait to see you.
Love ya.....Tresa
