Baby Visit

Our friend Geoff brought Noah for a visit last night. He is a month old and absolutely darling. We enjoyed spending time with them. Addy loved seeing the baby and got the chance to feed Noah a bottle. She was so excited and talked about it all day today.


Thanks for coming and visiting. Wish Crystal could have been there too! Feel better soon!

Brandy Days

We are so blessed to have Brandy in our lives. Addy loves Brandy and the kids - she looks forward to spending time with them every day. I was reminded of how lucky we are when Brandy sent these latest photos over. They really are very cute.

Gavin and Addy playing disney games on the computer:


Addy is really into her jammies right now and I sent a pair over for her to wear at Brandy's. Check out all the kids in their jammies together.



Thanks for all you do Brandy!

Chasing Santa!

Last night we were going to get the mail when we realized Santa was on his way! The fire truck with Santa was cruising the neighborhood, so we all stood on the corner and awaited his arrival. His fire truck passed our street and didn't turn down!! All the families (at least 10-12) raced to their cars, threw their kids in and hauled it down the street to where the trucks had stopped. Everyone got pictures and candy canes and donated some canned goods to a great cause.

Let me tell you, there is nothing like crazy parents on a mission! I turned around to take Little back to the car and realized that most of the neighbors didn't even bother to park on the side of the road. There were cars all over the street with doors hanging open, lights on and some still running. Too funny!

And half of us were already in pajamas. A couple people were in robes (like in the background of the picture) and some were like me in sweats or pajama pants. You can't say we aren't dedicated to Christmas!




Have a great weekend!
