Busy fun

So things have been a little crazy busy for us but we are having fun and are very happy. Thanksgiving was a blast! We had an early thanksgiving with the Greene and Eyre clan a few Sundays before Thanksgiving. It was a great meal and even better company we even did a family photo of all of us including Michelles kids it turned out good considering the number of people in the photo. On Thanksgiving we had a big todo at my mom and dad's with all of the extended Fullmer family pretty much everybody was there except a few cousins who live out of state or who had other family to be with. I think this was the first thanksgiving in a long time that we have been together like that. We also had Ryan, Jessica and the newest addition to our family Phoebe. It was nice for Shaun to have his brother with him for Thanksgiving.
Shaun is doing well with real estate right now despite the bad economy he is staying really busy but is finding time to get out and have fun. I have been having some fun as well last Friday I went out with some friends from my ward and saw the Twilight movie. It was a blast the movie was great, but I think the night off was the best part. I love my kids but I think it is good for everybody if mom gets a break.
Now we are just busy getting ready for christmas I haven't even started shopping but hope to start soon.
Sophie is 9 months old and is crawling all over the place. She is the happiest baby we feel so blessed to have her in our family. Ethan is so excited for christmas he has a list for santa and reminds me of it daily. His newest thing is drawing he is so good at it he can draw a lot of things considering he is only 3. He is singing all the time his newest song is Jingle Bells it is so cute to hear "his" version, which changes everytime he sings.
I am very excited for this holiday season and hope all our family and friends have a happy holiday season!

Our Halloween

Well I can't believe halloween has already come and gone. We had a very fun halloween, the night before we went to the pumpkin patch to pick out pumpkins and then we carved them. On Halloween Ethan went trick-or-treating with his cousin Sam. Ethan was a lion and Sophie was a Cat. Later that night we went to my mom's for chili and we dipped apples and the kids hunted for quarters that my mom hid in a pile of leaves. Then we all slept over at my mom's house on one big bed that she made in the basement. It was a lot of fun I really felt like a kid again.
So life now feels like it has slowed down again after all the excitement of halloween is over. Now we need to gear up for the excitement of the holidays. (I don't know how I feel about that) Time just goes by way to fast.
