Merry Christmas!

Giving thanks...

Wow, things have been busy around here. I feel like I am finally able to take a second and actually think about the last couple of weeks. Thanksgiving was great, my brother and sister came into town and my whole family was together. I love it when the cousins are all together, they are so excited. I kept hearing the 3 year old girls telling each other at random times throughout the week how they loved each other. It was the sweetest and cutest thing to hear because they really mean it. They love each other so much, they would rather be with each other than anyone else - pretty sure me included! They are so lucky to have that special relationship and it makes me happy for them.

We spent the week bowling, going to the movies, shopping, cooking, eating and chatting. I loved it. I wish it didn't go by so fast.

Miss S helped make the name tags for the table. They turned out really great.





Mr. T has a really big fan in his cute little cousin. She absolutely loves him. It is so fun to watch her face when he comes into the room, it is the cutest thing. To her, he is a movie star. She cuddles him and follows him all around. I am so glad I got these pictures!





Apparently, "the princess" found the chocolate cookies that were hidden in the laundry room. All of the sudden my mom was yelling, "Amy, get in here!" I ran in & found H with her face in between the dryer and the cabinet, trying to hide the fact that she was sneaking cookies. Of course, we thought it was funny and so she did too. This is a perfect example of her the last couple of months, good thing she is so cute. I have no idea how many cookies she actually ate - and no, she didn't eat her dinner. Oh, well.





We set up a tri-pod in front of my parents house, trying to get a good family picture. This one just makes me laugh everytime I see it. The way Eric is looking at Pete and the way Reagan is looking at the girls is just so funny. Maybe you had to be there.






Here are the cute cousins.
