spin

Kendyl loved her Christmas dress. She asked me to come watch her spin! 

Christmas Eve

I look forward to going to my uncle Mike & Aunt Viv's house every Christmas Eve. The food is so good. There are so many different types of appetizers, I don't know what to do with myself. If anyone really knows me, they know I love dips/appetizers/hour devours!!!! I cannot believe I didn't take a pictures of the table with all of them on there. On top of all of the appetizers, they also serve a huge meal -ugh! I get so full, I can't even move an hour into the night.

I feel bad, I didn't get pictures of everyone! All of my mom's siblings and some of their kids were all there! 

Boo

One of my favorite people to be around, is my cousin Lisa (a.k.a. Boo). She is currently a senior up at Western and has so many talents. She is kind, loving, smiles all of the time and I just love her. We were able to spend some time with her on Thursday and Christmas Eve. I am about 8 years older than she is. When we were growing up, my sister and I loved to help take care of her. My favorite memory is swimming with her and she was always so happy that she would drink half the pool because she smiled so much.

Christmas with my family

We got together with my parents, sister and grandparents on Thursday before Christmas. 

We had a wonderful time together. 

60 Years of Marriage

My Maternal Grandparents Celebrated their 60th Wedding Anniversary earlier this month. I just love them both so much. My grandma and grandpa are so cute, they do almost everything together.

cousins

I just love when my kids and their cousins get together. It's what I have always dreamed of, except my dream included us living next door to each other. I am not too sure if the husbands would have liked that too much!

here comes....

Ty's 4th Birthday

Halloween

Pumpkin Patch - BEAUTIFUL DAY!

Kendyl's preschool, also where I work, headed to the pumpkin patch this morning! It was an unusually warm day. It was so nice that I pulled Kaeden and Kenna out of school an hour early today and brought all three of them to the pumpkin patch. We had a great time searching for the perfect pumpkin. There seemed to be so many perfect pumpkins this year, it was hard to choose!
