Thankful

Wow, we have so much to be thankful for! Yesterday, our good friends came over and the kids made "thankful necklaces" (thanks for the idea Deb)! It is so fun to see their little minds work and to hear what they are thankful for. We heard things like: Parents, babies in mommy's belly (my two friends are pregnant as well), siblings, pets, Jesus, snacks, princesses, houses, grandparents, etc. What a blessing these friends are to us!!!!! Cant believe we got them all smiling in one picture! :)
Our family is very thankful this holiday season for what God has blessed us with! Two healthy boys!!!!!!!! This pregnancy has NOT been easy but I still feel so blessed to be carrying two babies and I know God will help me through the remainder of my weeks and after they come. Thanks to all my family and friends who have been their for me in the last few months, even in the complaining (which I do a lot). Please continue to pray for us as we continue in this journey!

My sweet friend, Ashley, made cupcakes the day we found out it was boys. My parents happen to be in town, so to find out what the sexes were, they got to bite into the cupcakes! It was so fun to see their reaction and the reactions of my precious friends that came. My mom and dad will have 8 grandsons and 2 granddaughters and Patrick's parents will have 4 grandsons and only one granddaughter (princess Madelyn). Crazy the amount of BOYS!!!!!! HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

Happy Halloween

My little Belle and fireman had a fun Halloween. By the end of last night, they were pooped (and so was mommy and daddy)! The weekend was busy but loads of fun! We hope you had a great one too!
M and B with their good friend, Campbell (he lives next door). He is a precious little boy and Madelyn and Brooks have really enjoyed getting to play with him more and more.
This is taken at our Church's fall festival. This picture is the before picture of Brooks on the little pirate ship ride.
This is the after (or should I say during) picture! He was crying and not a happy camper during the ride. He just ran on with his sister and a friend and must not known what he was getting on. I felt so bad for him.
Two gorgeous princesses!!!!
After our event at church, we went around to 10 or so houses in our neighborhood! The kids had a blast doing that. We came home with way too much candy!
Madelyn had no clue what to think of this guy in the mask. She kinda just stood back and let him put candy in her bag.
