finishing up 2012...baptism, photo shoots, halloween and christmas

Already to September...man i have been slacking but hope to keep up with this better come the new year...haha we shall see how that works out!!!  Kids had their first day of school.  I cannot believe we have a third grader and now a kindergartner!!  crazy how fast they are growing up.  Had to get a picture of the lunch bags and backpacks all ready from the night before school.

So here we are moving into October. Nevie had her Baptism on October 7, 2012.  She did so awesome and Loved Father Ryan,  we had her baptized at Sacred Heart in Fond du lac. Here a few pics of that day.  Her Godparents are Ryan Busching and Liz Hall, love those two! They are such sweet people and only want the best for everyone!!! and I have to give Shauna a shout out on the cake, love how bright and fun it was!!!

Lets see...I have taken a couple photo shoots with Nevie mostly since Im home with her all day....try to get some of Abby and Ryan on the weekends or in the evenings but the camera doesnt seem to come out as much in the winter..isnt that bad of me!! ill post a few pics from the shoots...

 Abby, Rachel, Shauna and my mom went to the Justin Bieber concert in October. Of all days for me to get sick that was the day. I was soo bummed I couldn't go to Abbys first major concert.  Thanks to Nani and Shauna for making it such a fun time for her.  By the pics it looks like the girls were so excited and having the time of their lives!!  I even think I saw a tear in Abbys eye in one of the videos Shauna sent me that night. Makes me sad I missed it but soo happy those girls had the time of their lives!!

 A couple pics from Halloween, Abby was a rockstar, Ryan a Packer and Nevie a Kitty, yes even Tim dressed up....freaky.....

 Then back to just a few pics I had taken of the kids......

Love how Nevie and Ryan are staring at each other....

 Tim and Abby went to a Packer game in November.  Ryan and Abby had to flip a coin to see who could go with Tim, Abby won.  Ryan was a little bummed but realized it was a fair way to decide.  Abby and Tim had a blast...the weather wasnt too bad which helped a ton.  I told the one that didnt win  that we could do something they wanted to do while the other one was at the game. Ryan chose to go bowling...it was a blast:)

Now we are onto the holiday season....Cant believe its Christmas time already...how the year has flown by, such a fun age for all the kids.  Abby and Ryan loved helping Nevie open her presents in between opening their own:)  Christmas Eve was different this year because we just stayed home, didn't feel like Christmas eve to me so hopefully next year we will have some plans that night:)  Christmas day we open Santa presents, then head to Tims parents and do presents there and then in the afternoon we went to his aunt and uncles in Fremont, its always nice to see that side of the family we usually only see during the holidays.  

Loved how Nani and Nevie were matching here!!  

                  Love this pic....it was a crazy picture and even grandpa got involved, miss you!!!

Putting Santas Magic Key on the door....

Christmas morning..2012

Really....could Abby look any more grown up here...

So as you can see, we had a super fun, crazy, busy year and we even added another member to our family, well two if you count Nate to our extended family. That only means more fun and even crazier times for 2013......
