Christmas

Christmas this year was one to remember!
We had Kaleb's first White Christmas and then some.
Traveling the streets of Tulsa Christmas Eve was reminiscent of a zombie movie. Abandoned cars were everywhere and it was quite an adventure to make it home for Santa's visit.

All the goodies for Santa and his reindeer

Finally Christmas morning came and Kaleb was so excited to finally open his presents.
As usual Santa and family were very kind to Kaleb....

After opening presents at home and having our wonderful maintenance crew shovel our car out we headed to Grandma's and Papa's.

More presents to open and more food to eat....
After visiting Grandma & Papa's house it was time to head to Nana's
Kaleb loved seeing Baby Carson and his aunts and uncles from Dallas.

Saturday night we went out to celebrate Kenny's birthday.
It was great to get everyone together to end the holiday weekend!
I hope everyone had a happy and safe Holiday and we're all looking forward to the New Years and all that it will bring!

Halloween!

It was a pretty lowkey Halloween here. Kaleb had a little bug so we just took him trick or treating in Papa & Grandmas neighborhood. Kaleb had a blast despite being a little under the weather.
He wanted to be Buzz Lightyear again and had fun running around in his suit.


After trick or treating Kaleb stayed with Papa & Grandma and Kenny and I went out to watch some football.
Kenny decided to dress up sexy for the night...apparently I wasn't impressed.
All in all it was a great night. Kenny's Yankees won, OU won, and OSU lost. Hopefully now the mouthy Cowboy fans will be silent.
I hope everyone had a great Halloween!

Pumpkin Carving


Kaleb had fun carving pumpkins this year but apparently he didn't like the smell!

And the final result...an ok looking Buzz Lightyear!

Visit's from friends

This fall we've had a couple of fun visits from good friends.
First up was Ms. Lauren in town from Houston. I loved getting to spend some time with one
of my best friends that I don't get to see enough of.
We always have a great time together and it was good to catch up.
She is doing great in Houston and even though I miss her I'm so happy
she is doing so well in the big city!

Next up we had Erin, Jon, and the adorable little Riley! Kaleb loved spending time with Riley who is already 3 months old! He was so good at our house and we loved having a baby around!
The weekend was spent watching football and taking the kids to the pumpkin patch.
We had great time and the kids looked adorable!

Fall Is Here!

Fall has just begun and it's already shaping up to a very busy one.
The highlight of course has been Megan's Wedding!
The wedding was gorgeous and Megan and Patrick have never looked happier!
I am so happy for my little sister and our new brother in law. He is a great guy and we're happy to have a new addition to our family!
Megan & Dad
As always it was great to see some family that we rarely get to see. Hopefully it won't be too long before we see everyone again.

With the excitement of the wedding over it was time to focus on some important athletic events in the family. Kaleb was in his school's jog a thon this year and although I don't know if we have a future distance runner on our hands we're proud of him for running/jogging/walking the whole 25 minutes. He jogged a little over 1.5 miles and now wants to jog everyday so he can improve next year!

Stretching before the big run
Thanks to Grandma & Grandpa and his aunts for sponsoring his jogging endeavours this year!

Kenny is living his school work right now and becoming good friends with the TU library.
Fall Breaks will be well received by both boys this year!
Around the Stone Household we are enjoying (sort of) football season and gearing up for the rest of October's events.
We have some visits from out of town friends, the Tulsa Run, and of course Halloween.
I hope everyone is enjoying their Fall and I'll update soon!

Summer is Over

It's been a long busy summer but we had a blast!
We got to spend a lot of time with Kaleb and filled the summer with lots of fun activities.
We took full advantage of swimming, parks, and story times.

The three of us had a great summer but now it's time to head back to reality.
Kaleb has now started Kindergarten.
I can't believe he has gotten so big. His teacher seems nice and we are hoping this is a great year for him.
He is the youngest, tallest, and by far the loudest in his class.
He'll certainly leave an impression on his class!
First Day of school!
Kaleb turned five last Friday and we celebrated with family and friends.
It was Transformer themed and as usual Kaleb cleaned up. He has such generous friends and family who truly love and care for him.
Thanks Nana for letting us celebrate at your home!
Another exciting part of the summer was the birth of Riley! Here is the happy family!
We are so lucky to have this family in our life and to have an adorable sweet godchild!
I know Erin will raise that boy a good Catholic :)
Kenny starts school in a couple of weeks and we're praying for another successful semester.
These classes will be tough but luckily he is a smart guy!

Looking forward to a fun fall and I'll try to post more than I have over the summer!

Spring is Here!


The weather is finally warm and we are loving every minute of it!
Kaleb always enjoys having more time outdoors and he is already looking forward to swimming in the summer.

We had a very fun and busy Easter weekend.
We prepared for the Easter Bunny by making lots of sweets and dying eggs. Kaleb had a blast decorating eggs and cupcakes and just as much fun eating them!
 Kaleb is into a Transformers phase and happily received a couple of new bots to add to his collection.
We had a delicious Easter breakfast with Karen before heading to Mom and Dads for Easter lunch.
It was a great day with lots of food and lounging. 
After all the family festivities it was time to head to Audrey's 2nd Birthday!
Kaleb giving Audrey his present to her.
Audrey and Kaleb!

It was a great weekend and we have many more to look forward to this spring!
