Thanksgiving 2011

Thursday, January 26th, 2012

We went to Grandma J’s in Tipton, IA to celebrate Thanksgiving this year.  The Ambersons were there too and the cousins got lots of time together.  Here, Kate and Maya are showing off their french braids.

Lila and Ella in their cosey outfits from P-Ma.

Uncle Brandon carving the turkey sporting a nice apron.

Lynn spent lots of time on the floor playing with the kiddos.

Olivia and Maya were beat and crashed on the floor before going up to bed.

We had such a nice Thanksgiving!  Grandma made a lot of super tasty food and it was so nice to all be together.

Easter 2011

Tuesday, April 26th, 2011

We kicked off Easter with our neighborhood Easter egg hunt.

Ella’s holding her new bunny from mom mom

Lila’s opening her gifts from Gramma J.

Maya got a baby in the “pack” for Easter (she needed another baby doll, just ask her, she’ll tell you).

Jumping on the new trampoline (Dustin calls it the ER visit waiting to happen)

We went to church Saturday night which was quite the debacle, but got to visit the Amberson’s on our way home so that was good.  Then on Easter we had a nice relaxing morning and then went to my mom’s for a meal with that side of the family.  Food was great and so was the company!
