Natalie is 4!

Bennett was invited to Natalie's 4th Birthday party, which was a Twins themed party! Everyone was asked to wear their favorite Twins gear! Bennett had a blast with the kids!

Swimming Fun

At the hotel this weekend, Bennett enjoyed some fun time in the pool with his daddy, Ethan & Chris. This was a high point!!

Christmas Jams

Bennett, Ethan and Maryn all have matching Christmas jams! It turns out that when we went up north Emily and I packed the same ones.

Dinner with Santa

We had dinner at the golf course this weekend since Santa and Mrs. Claus were there. At first, Bennett was not sure what to think.

After some discussion with Daddy, he was happy to sit on his lap and had a big smile after telling Santa what he would like for Christmas.

Then it was Ethan's turn and both boys posed for a cute picture before saying goodbye to Santa.

The Patch

Bennett and Papa planted pumpkins this spring. We were not quite sure what to expect, but during the summer we watched as the vines grew in the garden. Then the flowers came in early fall, but no sign of pumpkins. Finally just before Halloween 1 perfect pumpkin arrived. And then we noticed two smaller pumpkins! It was a very exciting time - all of the watering paid off!!

Cabin

Travis' mom and uncles are in the process of building a cabin on the land that his Grandpa had. We went up north to check out the progress! Things are looking good! We are excited about all the fun times that Bennett and the new baby will be able to enjoy on the lake!

But for now, it was all work for little B!

2 months!

Where have we been you ask? Well, much of the time was spent laying on the couch and sleeping! Baby Schneider is on the way and I have not been feeling the greatest. So even though my mother knows this, she still wonders why the blog is NOT being updated. Last night I heard that it was 2 months since I had last posted.

So, I am feeling so much better which should lead to more regular blog posting! Plus we have lots of fun and exciting things happening that I need to update on!
