THREE!

Maddox is now officially THREE!  It's great because he finally looks his age, and we don't get the incredulous looks when we tell people he's two.  He had a super-fun birthday while we were in Nevada, and got to have cousins and aunts and uncles around to make it an extra special birthday! 

He got some extra fun toys too....and who would have guessed that he got a bunch of Star Wars toys and t-shirts?  He also got some pajamas, a stomp rocket, and even a cool new big wheel bike!

But the best part really was getting to spend so much time with family.  Having little Andy and baby Lizzie around made it a party all day long, and Maddox absolutely loved spending time with them.  Happy Birthday Maddox!

Thankful!

Happy Thanksgiving!

We got to spend a couple of weeks out in Nevada with Milt's family for Thanksgiving this year, and we loved getting to spend time with everyone.  It is so fun now that we have cousins around for the kids to play with!  We are so grateful for everything that we have, and most especially for our families.  It is always good to be reminded how much we all mean to each other, and we really grew closer together this holiday season. 

The kids loved getting to see their Big Daddy and Nana Jacki, plus their great grandparents Momoe &Papa and Nana & Papa Ken.  It was a really good trip to spend quality time with loved ones.  The cousins and Aunts and Uncles are ALWAYS fun to play with too! Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving holiday!
