Turkey Day 2011

We had an amazing Thanksgiving holiday last week. We opted not to travel with new baby Tandy, so we opened the invitation to my family to come visit us from Texas. Amazingly, they accepted said invitation and traveled the long distance to spend time together.

Aunt Sassy was able to meet Tandy for the first time.

Avery loved playing with cousin Ford.

Uncle Cool is always a big hit with the kiddos.

Avery pitched in with the big meal preparations by grinding the cranberries for the cranberry salad.

She also did some great quality control testing. (Of course, cooking in costumes makes everything taste better.)

I finally set a pretty table with our china plus the silver from Todd’s mother.

We are so thankful for our family, and we truly enjoyed the time we were able to spend together.

Picture Perfect

It’s been weeks since Brooke’s visit and weeks since my last post, but I’m finally here to show off my girls through Brooke’s beautiful photos. We feel so blessed to have a photographer in the family! Brooke was able to get away from her sweet little one and hubby for a few days with us. I can’t tell you how much I enjoy her company!






















Thank you so much Brooke for making the super long trip and sharing your talent with us. We love you!

I'm still playing catch up with my blog, so bear with me. I haven't touched my sewing machine in months either. I'm starting to doubt that the girls will have hand made Christmas dresses this year, but I haven't lost all hope yet.

Visitors

Well, it has been 3 weeks since Tandy made her appearance, and I’m already behind when it comes to keeping up with our little adventures on this blog. It seems all I can manage is eating, nursing, and sleeping whenever I can, so I'm keeping this short. We’ve had some wonderful visitors (and helpers) these past few weeks.
