 Oh Christmas...how we love you so! From baking to playing, traveling to snuggling and churching to just plain being silly, we can't get enough of this time of year!!

Happy Thanksgiving

Our day was full of friends, family, fun & lots of good food.

We are thankful for the many gifts we have been given...including YOU who care enough to check in on all of the Barta Babies from time to time!

Happy Thanksgiving!!

these are the days....

Sydney started ballet!!! Tiny ballerinas are so cute :)

 We did some belated celebrating of Davis's birthday in the new house and he got a super cool Detroit Tiger's pillow pet. Score!

Anyone looking for a pet?  This is the second spotting we've had of this hairy guy :(

Sometimes even the grown ups get a chance to play! Daddy & Mommy headed to Vegas for a long weekend.  When they weren't sitting around enjoying the sun & the pool, they were doing fun things like grilling classes & rafting trips on the Colorado River.  Big thanks to Cousin Rachel for giving them a little time away!

 

big moves & funny stuff

Finally!  Move in time!  These past couple of weeks have been full of boxes, lots of firsts and a bunch of silly moments.  We are so glad to finally be settled :) 

 

Already finding projects....

The best part of the new house!!

 

The view from Davis's new school

 Davis's first soccer game.  Evidently not exciting to Hadley as Sydney works on helping her to sleep :)
