Thanksgiving 2007

Thank you, thank you, thank you for coming Tom, Suzanne, Leigh and Ben!!! I needed the break. I needed the help. I needed the company and the change of pace. It was a magical few days for everyone.


Many, many stories were read...


There were lots and lots of cuddles...

Drew gave out lots of kisses...

Papa fed Drew alot (hear the happy sigh from Missy while typing)




Uncle Ben offered parenting suggestions...


We cheered for America's Team!

Go Cowboys!

The moment we had all been waiting for...


The feast! Thank you Suzanne for all the wonderful food you prepared!

We went on walks...

There were bedtime snuggles...


...and bedtime snoozes...Madi's first time to sleep in the top bunk!

Jack's funny nap

A few days ago Jack was resistant to napping. After almost an hour of getting up I heard a loud bang and ran to his room to find this...


That is his hamper collapsed under him


Look at the room...that is him in the background of the pic...on his hamper.

Our friends came out to visit

We had such a great time with my friend from college, A, and her dad! Thank you so much for taking the time to come visit!!!
