Merry Christmas!

Note: these pictures are in completely random order! (sorry) Here are several pictures from the last three days at the Nagel House. I'll comment here and there but will mostly let the pictures speak for themselves, as I am too tired to "write." Enjoy!

Florida!

We're back!!! We left last Saturday (11th) and came home this weekend (18th). When we got there the first couple days were warm, but then Monday and Tuesday South Florida had record lows!!! I think Monday it was 50 degrees and Tuesday maybe 58!!! After that it warmed back up though...so here are some pictures from our trip! The boiys had never been on a plane before- so here they are getting ready to board, watching for our plane to pull in. Maddox enjoyed the ride and loved his window seat!

Jackson liked it too, although he seemed a little nervous.

The boys played some hoops in the pool...

Maddox thoroughly enjoyed the water!

we watched some sunsets...

Went to a really nice park and rented this way cool bike...

lounged in some hammocks...

This was at the manatee park...all of those things under water are manatees!! There were hundreds!!! It was amazing, they all swim up the canal during the winter months when the gulf is chilly. They stay for a few days then go eat amd come right back!

chased some birds...

climbed a few trees...

sat at the beach...

built a few sand castles...

walked on the beach....

visited the Sanibel Lighthouse...

That's a wrap! We had a good time, but we are glad to be home in our own beds!!! Have a good week!

Jackson has been sick today.

We had a friend of ours come over friday night and hook our Netflix up to our Wii, so that we can stream movies/shows instantly to our tv...it's fabulous! Adam is addicted and the boys and I love it too. So we watched movies most of the weekend! Jackson has been running a fever and then threw up on the couch a few hours ago... so I ran to the drugstore for some meds and a thermometer (I searched everywhere for mine with no success!!) When I came home Adam had changed him and set him up on the couch with a bucket and cartoons:

Maddox decided to have nap:

Adam put up Christmas lights!!!!

And I made a batch of this gooey goodness!

That was pretty much our day...hope you had a good weekend! We're off to sunny south Florida next Saturday and after this coldness, it will be nice to warm up!

A bag and the tree

I will start by sharing how excited I am about my new FANTASTIC camera bag! It's a Crumpler 4 Million Dollar Home Bag (just incase you are in the market)...and I love it. It will hold my camera and two lenses- which is all I would ever take out at once anyhow. I can't wait to take it on an outing! Next, the tree is trimmed! We went to three places this year before finding the right tree, and I must say, I think it's my favorite so far!!!

I think it need more lights, but the boys started decorating before I could finish getting them on- oh'well.

This week

We haven't been up to too much. We finally got some family pictures made (a few are below). I'm not really a big fan of them, but with two kiddies it's hard...o'well.

We got our tree tonight (check for pictures later in the week) and then made a fire since it's FREEZING outside. Walker was a fan of the fire; he cozied right up.

and I enjoyed a cup of this...

Our tree is still "falling out" so maybe we'll decorate it tomorrow. That's all I got for now!
