Miller Time

We were blessed to be able to spend the weekend with our good friends, the Millers. They took us in after the tornado and we have been good friends ever since. Unfortunately, they moved up north, just outside of Chicago, so we don't get to see them very often anymore. We headed their way the day after Thanksgiving and were able to spend the entire weekend with them! 
There was lots of playing, a little Ikea shopping, nightly slumber parties, and even a trip to the DuPage Children's Museum!!





Even Baby B got to join in on the sleepover fun ;)




 (Poor Dax was so worn out from our weekend of fun that he slept through most of the time at the children's museum. And sweet little Brynlee was an angel who just chilled in the stroller most of the time)

Happy Thanksgiving!!

We hosted Thanksgiving this year for the first time...and it was a blast!
The Pacheco's, Mike and fam, and the Heslop's all came to our house to feast with us :) The guys had a fun time deep frying the turkey outside while the women put together sides and the kids played. It was a full house and so much fun!!



 





We have so much to be thankful this year! We are thankful to be back in our beautiful, remodeled house. We are thankful to have such great friends to celebrate with. We are thankful that we have great families in Utah to miss. We are thankful for this free country where we are free to worship and live how we choose. And most of all, we are thankful for our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, who has made it possible for us to be a family forever!

2 Months Old!

This little 2 month old is pretty popular around here :)
We all just adore this little cutie....and can you blame us? She is so loveable and squeezable! 


We all fight over who gets to hold her. She is rarely left to sit on her own because everyone wants to squeeze her chubbers :) Brynlee is a pretty happy baby and we all love to make her smile. She doesn't really like to sleep, but Ellie and Daddy seem to have the magic touch.




We are all so grateful to have this sweet little girl as the baby of our family!!

Snow!!!

The first snow of the year is always exciting!! It's so beautiful and the kids can't wait to get out and play in it! The kids made snow angels and searched for penguins today :) I love these cute kids and their awesome imaginations!

Chuck E Cheese

The Pachecos invited us to Chuck E Cheese tonight to celebrate Ole's birthday. It was a fun night of games and rides! Even Brynlee was able to join in on the fun ;)









Evey won a best friend necklace and gave the other half to Ellie :) Such cute girls, I hope they really are best friends forever!
