Luke was ready for S'mores!

Today we said goodbye to Grandpa.

We borrowed dad's scanner and have been getting a lot of old photos on the computer. I thought I would share this one of Brad in first grade.

Emma's Art!

John's R&R just had to include some good old Gates BBQ and a visit with the family!
Thanks for the grub John and Rae!

We had Natalie's picture taken on Monday. She is at the big six month mark now!

We all met up in Drexel for Christmas cheer!

I took the kids to Toys"R"Us today to let them spend a little of their Christmas money with the hope that the new toy would keep them busy for a while and buy me a little down time. Wrong. As soon as they spied the Sponge Bob Lego set I knew I was in trouble. Well, somewhere between an hour and a half and two hours later, I finally finshed putting the thing together. I must say that I was somewhat proud of myself even though I was upset I spent most of Natalie's nap time hunched over an instruction book. I think the best part though was having the boys sitting by me the whole time saying, "Wow, your doing it mom!, It's working!, I'm so proud of you, Thanks mom!" The things we do for our children!

Black Friday was spent in Rolla helping with the tree.

Rae made her annual Thanksgiving Jello dish- a big hit!
