A Visit From Two Turkeys

For Thanksgiving week, Casey's parents came out to meet Chase and give some much needed attention to Colton. We are so glad they came and we had a great time while they were here. They are always so helpful when they come and are always willing to babysit. Colt's face always lights up when he sees Nana and Papaw and Kansas loves to talk long, long walks with his grandpa. Thanks for all you do guys, we love you and look forward to seeing you soon.

We also had our friend, Leigh, over with Hannah and Nathan for Thanksgiving dinner. Her husband, Dave had to go out of town, so we thought the more the merrier. Colt loves playing with Hannah and since Nathan and Chase are 6 weeks apart, they are going to be great friends, too.

God We Thank You

We wanted to wish everyone a very Happy Thanksgiving. I just wanted to share a few things I was thankful for.

I am thankful Casey has a great job and we have a nice home, and food on the table every night.

I am thankful for our church and that Colton loves going so much that that he runs to his class every Sunday and tells me Puggles Church is in God's House.

I am thankful for my family of four. God has truly blessed me with a wonderful husband who can put up with me, make me laugh when I don't want to, loves his 2 boys more than life itself, is a hard-working provider who takes care of us, and is my best friend and I couldn't live without.

Iam thankful for my 2 healthy little boys who love their mommy and daddy. They melt my heart every day.

I am thankful for my 4-legged baby, Kansas. He always knows if I am sad and need a furry head in my lap and gives unconditional love.

I am thankful for my parents and Casey's parents. They all mean more to us than we tell them. We are grateful to have such good role models to guide us through our lives together. I am thankful Colt and Chase have the best grandparents in the world that love them so much.

We are thankful for Uncle Brett and Aunt Ashley. They are going to be wonderful parents in March.

We are thankful for Uncle Chris and Aunt Deanna. They are so unselfish and come at a moment's notice with just one call.

We are thankful for friends both near and far. Some we have known for a long time and some it seems like we just met. Each of you has a special place in our hearts and we know God put you there for a reason.

Everyone enjoy your family and have a wonderful Thanksgiving.

Just a little fun video of the Colt man practicing his throwing. Now if we could master using the potty!!!!!

First Day At Church

Today was actually the day we got the whole family to church. It is very hard trying to get everyone breakfast and baths and bottles ready to go. I guess it is a good thing that we were all awake at 6:30!! I was a little worried about Chase, but he did fine for his first time in the nursery. We sat close to an exit and I held the beeper close, but when we went to get him, he was fast asleep in the nursery lady's arm. Hopefully, Chase will love to go as much as Colt does. When I asked him where we were going today, he said to God's House!!!!! Gotta love the children!

It's The Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown!!!

Colt was Charlie Brown for Halloween this year. It was a pretty simple costume we could throw together in our hectic lives right now. We had a very hectic day. We started off by going to our friend, Mia Kate's 1st birthday party. Colt had a blast there playing with Emma Grace and jumping in the bouncy house. I had to trick him to get him out so we could leave. Then we came home and went trick-or-treating with our his friends, Hannah and Hayden. They were all so cute together, ringing the doorbells and getting their candy. Casey had to go to North Dakota for his grandmother's funeral, so my sister-in-law was nice enough to come down from Raleigh and go out with us. Colt loved having his Aunt Dee Dee there and wanted to show her what he got in his candy bag after every stop. Once we hit all the houses, we came back home and Colt helped pass out candy with me and Kansas. He loved running and getting the candy basket when the doorbell rang. I had to help him, though, not to give each kid 2o twizzlers at a time. We hope everyone else had a great Halloween. Enjoy the videos and pictures.

Poor Chase. It looks like I'm breaking his little neck.

Much better.

Bright Eyes

I have never seen a kid so wide awake and alert. It seemed like Colt didn't open his eyes for a month!!! I love my brand new Bright Eyes!!!!
