This family is...

... so thankful!

I was just thinking last night about this Thanksgiving season and all that I have to be so incredibly grateful for this year. I don't even know where to start...

a happy, healthy, beautiful little (almost 1 year old) girl... a husband that works so hard to provide for our family...

a warm house to live in... an abundant harvest... safety this harvest season...

the HOPE we have in Christ... family that loves the Lord with all their hearts...

a new baby boy that is growing healthy and strong inside... an amazing group of friends that we love so much and that we are able to walk through this life with...

and so so so much more!

Enter His gates with thanksgiving And His courts with praise. Give thanks to Him, bless His name... Psalm 100:4

Happy Thanksgiving

11 months

Miss Elliana Grace is 11 months... soon to be 1 year old!

I'm so thankful for the past 11 months... you have been such a sweet blessing to our family! You have taught us so much even though you don't even know it!

It is so hard to see you grow up so fast but I am excited for what is in store for us next! Happy 11 months little miss!

being a fairy princess is hard work...

...but someone's gotta do it! For trick or treat day Elliana dressed up like a fairy princess! She was the cutest little fairy I have ever seen (not that I'm partial or anything!) She wasn't sure about the whole outfit... with the tutu, boa, fairy wings and fairy wand but she posed for a few pics which is all it took to make this mama happy! We took some pictures with the cutest little spider web I've ever seen (again... not that I'm partial at all to Mr. Jace!) and went trick or treating to Nana and Papa's. That was about all this little fairy princess could handle!

Even though we are not going to play Halloween up in this house it is fun to dress up, pretend, have fun, imagine and just enjoy life! It is such a joy to have these experiences with a child and to see the world through their eyes! I think this is only the beginning of many more fun and silly adventures to come on the Isaacson Farm!

Happy Birthday Daddy!

We just want to wish our favorite daddy and husband a very HAPPY BIRTHDAY today!! You are an amazing daddy to Elliana and a great hubby too! Thank you for working so hard to provide for us. We appreciate more than you can imagine! Even though we can't celebrate with you today since you are harvesting away from home we are thinking about you and looking forward to celebrating when you get home! We love you... Chelsea, Elliana and the little guy! :)

Elliana's 9 Month Photos

We took advantage of daddy's bean field for Elli's 9 month photo shoot! The scenery looks a lot different around here now as that field has been harvested! Glad we got the pictures then. Kim did a great job and captured a lot of great expressions! Her 1 year pictures will be right around the corner... hard to believe!

sneek peek!

This past Friday we were able to get a "sneek peek" at our little guy before the big reveal in January! Since we are delivering in Holdrege this time we were able to get a free 4-D ultrasound. It was so much fun to see our baby moving around and sucking on his hand and get a peek at some of his features!

Picture #1... the babe was sucking on his hands like crazy so it was hard to get a decent pic. I didn't mind that at all! It was fun to see what he is up to in there... and his big sis liked to suck her hands so it was cute to see the similarities.

Picture #2... i think the little mister was saying "no more pictures PLEASE!"

Picture #3... a close up of his nose and lips

We are so excited to meet this new little guy! I am thankful we have a couple months left though... we have some things to get finished up... like HARVEST, his room, a 1st birthday party for his big sis... and the list goes on!! :)

Cuttin' Beans

Harvest on the Isaacson Farm has officially started! Elli and I took a trip to the field to ride in the combine for a little while. Elli had a great time but preferred to sit on the floor all. by. herself! I'm sure we will be taking more harvest pictures as the season continues but I had to capture the "first" combine ride!
