Thanksgiving 2016

Always the gravy girl.

Gabriella helped whip the potatoes.

Daniel helped eat the pie:)

We had a quiet Thanksgiving,

We made brisket instead of turkey,

we walk on the wild side.

Very incredibly thankful for all

my peoples.

Halloween Peeps 2016

We had lots of new faces + our favorite friends 

accompany us trick or treating this year.

We always get deemed the chaperones for

trick or treating.

It proves a little stressful but definitely 

worth it.

Nothing better than a whole bunch

of kids hopped up on to much

sugar!

Grandpa's Visit- Part 3

***WHOOPS! I forgot the last grandpa post***

One of the girls favorite things about grandpas visits,

he rents a car.

That means he can take them on adventures

that are just for the big kids.

Everyone was so very sad when grandpa left.

He rode with Derek to take them to school every morning.

He played with them everyday that he was here.

I love watching family members love on my kids.

Each one of them feels so special.

Their relationships blossom and its a beautiful thing.

All of the children were asking why he couldn't just 

move in with us so they could play everyday :-)

Can't wait for his next visit!

Grandpa's Visit-Part 2

We got to celebrate his birthday.

Of course Daniel helped blow out the candles.

FYI-Poor MiKayla was watching videos on

her tablet holding it above her head.

She dropped it.....right on her little eye :(

In case you are wondering where the teenage girl was....

right here. In bed. Listening to music on her phone.

Being a teenager....
