Cousin's Come to Visit

A couple of days ago we got a call from Ryan's brother Elliott and his family. They were coming thought town on their way home from visiting family and wanted to stop by.

Soon after we got here we decided to go and get some dinner.

Jack loved being with these sweet boys!

It was nice to catch up with these guys!

I'm so glad we went out, especially since it happened to be Ryan and my wedding anniversary!

After dinner went back to the house and got everyone ready for bed.

Lilly loved playing with Miles, a little guy just like her.

Us adults just hung out and talked late into the night.

The kids were a little wild!

It was so nice they stopped by! It's not too often that any of Ryan's family makes it up to Utah! 

See you guys again soon!

Thanksgiving

I haven't had a Thanksgiving with my family since I was in high school!

I made a turkey at my house and brought it over to their house.

There have only been, I think three Thanksgivings in my married life I haven't made the turkey.

The boys watched some games, Mom set the table and the kids just played.

There was a lot of break dancing going on!
Love Liam's moves!

Fran made a turkey too. The biggest one I've ever seen! And wrapped in bacon.

Lila is a wild girl! Always spitting or smacking her lips or clicking her tongue!

I've had dreams about Dad's gravy!

Such sweet cousins!!

Time to EAT!!

Nice face SARAH!

And then it was over. All those hours of cooking and baking.. all over in an hour.

It was all totally worth it!

We weren't planning on going black Friday shopping, but at the last minute Sarah and I found a deal we couldn't pass up! It was a long, fun night!
(She got to have a wheel chair due to her pregnancy, lucky!)
HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

This Weeks Highlights!

Lila is 4 months old!

Lila still loves to be wrapped up and cuddled like a newborn baby

My favorite part of this video is when Lilly stops and smiles. She thinks I'm taking a picture....

Having Scarlett around is a lot of fun!

Mary wanted Mom to get out all of the Christmas decorations so she could help set everything out.

I haven't had a Christmas with my family since Ella was a baby.

It was fun to look at all of the fun little things from my childhood.

Like this nativity. I spent hours playing with these as a kid.

The little girls and I spent an afternoon hanging running around with Mary and her babies. These cousin's sure love each other.

Jack's birthday party is only a couple days away! He was so happy and proud of his invitations.

While making said invitations Lila got a hold of Lilly's hair.

Sister problems.

Lila is such a doll! I love her smiling face!

Our dear friends moved away. Good thing it's not to far, but we will miss having them right across the street. They have been the best neighbors we've ever had!

It's so fun to have GIRL cousins!

I love finding pictures like this on my phone. Thanks Sami!

What better excuse to have a girls night then having one of my sisters in town!

Another picture I found on my phone... Thanks babe, that beard sure is coming in nice.

I went to check on the kids in the night and couldn't find Lilly!

She had gone to cuddle up with Jack! So sweet!

Those sweet little cheeks!

Family movie night to see catching fire!

This time Sarah, Kreighton were in town and able to join in on.

Lila has the longest hairs on her ears! I hope it goes away soon.. Lilly's did! ;)

These sweet babies fell asleep on the couch together.
Poor Lilly looks extra skinny!

A princess bath.. since she refused to take it off

 Again I couldn't find Lilly in the night, again she was in bed cuddling with Jack

 

Lilly likes to take showers sometimes and always sings! I was able to catch her making up her own song the other day!
