We had a delightful Thanksgiving holiday this year. First, we visited Grandpa, Grandma, and Uncle Jason in Wisconsin. The boys loved playing with all of the animals. They liked the ferret the best. Then, we celebrated with Papa, Nana, Aunt Karen, Aunt Kristi, Uncle David, and Great Uncle Jeff yesterday. It was great to all be together again! We had fun eating and playing games together.

Family Times
I asked Eli what they were doing and he said we are wrestling Mama. Wow, it starts early!
The boys loving story time with Daddy
David is back! It is so great to all be together again! We realized it has been about a year and a half since the four of us siblings have been together; with Karen being on her mission trip last year and David being out west. I love my siblings! Karen and Kristi have been watching the boys for us during our Married For Life small group that we host in our home every other Thursday evening. Last Thursday Uncle David, Auntie Kristi, and Auntie Karen all watched the boys for us during our small group.
On Friday, David and Karen came to Adventure Park with the boys and I. We had a fun time! Eli especially loved having Uncle David and Auntie Karen play with him.

It was close to 40 degrees out today, so today was the perfect day to play out in the snow! Eli was so excited!
Asa was no so thrilled because he could not walk well in his snow suit
Eli loved making snow balls and throwing them at trees
Asa did enjoy being pulled around in the sled!
The boys enjoying a snack together. They grow so much everyday! Eli surprises me each day with his explanding vocabulary and Asa is talking too! The words Asa says now are: mama, dada, papa, nana, water, cheese, ball, and balloon. So fun!
Our dear friend Stacy came and visited with us last weekend. There are always lots of laughs!
Last weekend we went out to eat at the Olive Garden. The boys enjoyed their food.
We have created a family bucket list so that we can be intentional about doing fun family activities together. After we do an activity we will drop a clothes pin into the bucket. Let the good times roll!
