Goings On and Such

We had Thanksgiving with Tim's family this year because his parents are home! They have been serving the last three years as temple president and matron of the Columbus, Ohio temple. The grandkids are SO excited to have them back!

Grammy started a reading group

Playing with cousin Janeyi

We found out what happens when Sophia accidentally eats something with peanut butter in it. Not fun!

We were chosen to test this new swing for Samuel. Yay for free stuff!

Sophia got her glasses. She is very farsighted. We knew she needed glasses because her eye would turn in when she would try to focus on things up close. The doctor says she will likely be in glasses her whole life, or until she gets LASIK, like her Mama.

Her favorite color is purple. :)

We got a new refrigerator. Here's Tim and Sophia standing next to the old fridge, watching the delivery truck through the window.

Samuel gets bigger every day.

The kids got to see Santa at our ward Christmas breakfast.

We've been told we have adorable children. We're inclined to agree. :)

She grew up overnight!

Mega Bloks Party!!

We were selected by House Party to host a Mega Bloks party, and it was a BLAST! We were given an amazing Party Pack, which cost us nothing. It had lots of blocks, a Billy Beat piano, and packages of the block buddies people for our guests, plus coupons!

We made "block" brownies.

The guests came.

They went crazy with the blocks!

They made a tower to touch the ceiling.

Bridger made the Titanic.

And everyone went home with toys and treats!

I can't wait to host another House Party!

Family Pictures

We did the kids' "fancy" photos in October, and then my dear friend, Bryson Baham, helped us do our family photos. Here's the best of the best. :)

And the bloopers:

Pre-sneeze

Completely stoned

Trying so hard to hold up a slippery baby in a slippery dress

Halloween

For Halloween, Samuel was a skeleton, and Sophia was a peacock.

We had my family over to carve pumpkins.

It was good times. :)
