Happy Thanksgiving!

So blessed, so happy, I love Thanksgiving Day and the long 4-day weekend. Again, we hosted Thanksgiving dinner at our house for our family of 13 people and it was wonderful. Time with family in our own home is what I love the most. Food all turned out delicious. Forgot to bake the extra dish of stuffing but that was ok because it was 'extra'. Jonathan and Adam loved the time with their cousins. It's whenever they come, Jim and I actually get to sit and have long conversations for once because the boys are having so much fun on their own and being entertained. This year I am thankful for a new boss at work who has been pretty great; thankful I have been selected to be on the Boards of Directors for Ta-ri starting the new year, thankful for time we have spend with new christian friends and neighbors, thankful for "love dare", thankful for our healthy, loving, and precious boys, and thankful for a nice weekend in Baltimore with my own family including mom and dad who joined us. Happy Thanksgiving, peace, and blessings everyone!

Super Heroes in Action!

Here we are at Ugro's School Parade. Jonathan was Iron man and Adam was Spiderman. The kids walked down a block to the Metro Bank where most of the employees passed out candy, stickers and other treats. The boys wore their costumes so much this year, even to bed.

I love how Adam looks up to his big brother, Jonathan. When in action, they are trying to save the day! Every move, every word and sound that Jonathan has, Adam is right behind him. This year we passed on the normal candy and decided to go with other treats of Halloween pencils, glow in the dark bugs and skeletons, and erasers to give to the trick or treaters in our neighborhood....another 250 ... amazing, where do all the kids come from? Jonathan and Adam went to about 10 houses and then enjoyed passing out the treats and seeing all the costumes. Cousin Teagan came as a Snow White...too cute!

Jonathan and Adam had a bunch of friend's birthday parties in the last month. Here is Adam riding a horse at the one birthday parties for Joey and Jessica - they really enjoyed it! And Jonathan loved his friend Lauren's pool party.
