Holidays and Fun

Thanksgiving Time...
We spent Thanksgiving in Gresham, Oregon at Olivia's house. All of Joy's siblings were there along with all of the cousins except one. It was quite the crowd and a lot of fun!


We had blue sky and sunshine while in Oregon, but the wind never stopped blowing. It didn't stop Grandma Joy, Aunt Ruth, Andrew and I from walking in the woods. Andrew was busy finding the perfect hiking stick!


























We left Oregon at noon, arrived home around 5:30, dropped the kids off for a sleepover at grandma and grandpa Heimbigner's house (Abigail's first night away from mommy and daddy) and went to a cocktail party at Megan and Aaron Baltzell's place. It was fun getting all dressed up and having a night out with all of our good friends.

Santa and Santa's helper visit all of the kids....
Three ladies that I teach with and all of our families gathered last Friday to get a special visit from Santa. It always surprises me how calm the kids stay, but how you can see the excitement and wonder on their faces.
Snow in Spokane...
Even though it is all melted now, we had some snow over the weekend. Andrew had fun shoveling, making footprints and sledding!

Abby's New Tricks...
Abigail is getting so much stronger and enjoys belly time for longer periods. She loves to hold her head up and look around. We couldn't resist getting some naked shots the other night. Her little cheeks (both sets) are so cute! Abigail is still sucking her thumb and even when she was playing with her rattle, she was able to find that thumb and go to sleep.
