So Far...

SWIMMING... in Nebraska! I am surprised that The water wasn't one big brick of ICE! I NEVER, NEVER want to live in Nebraska in the Winter! I don't know that I have ever been that cold!
Ell-bell Chillin. She obviously feels the same way about NEBRASKA as I do! She would only "swim" in the HOT TUB :) That's my girl.

Two little Monkeys Jumpin' on the bed. After 9 hours in the car, can you blame them?!

My little man... He was running up the stairs at Grandma's house to go Play with the toys. He slipped, fell, and hit his chin on the hardwood. He busted it right open. He Freaked out at first but then he calmed down and was the bravest little boy ever! He was adorable at the Hospital. He was answering all of the questions the nurses asked like he didn't even need us there. "Is he allergic to any medication? " "No" says Tate. WHat?! He was adorable. He even asked THEM some questions :)

Sorry... Had to post this one. He was so tough! I am so proud of my sweet little boy. He HATES blood and needles or even the thought of them! He was So nervous... but did great. I had to grab my camera and take a picture to show him so that he would believe it was bad enough for stitches. He just wanted to leave it like it was!

SEVEN stitches! We really have had a great time. Tate and Ellie have loved "sleeping over" at Grandma and Grandpa's and playing with their Cousins. Tate also has Strep throat! LAYLA- Tate could really use some Kisses!!! :)

We Made it!!!

We made it to Good old Kansas City safely. I have lots of fun pictures to post.... it will take me a few days to get them on here I'm sure. Merry Christmas to everyone. We love you all!

.BaBy GrAcie.

Here She Is!

Thanks for the pictures Jamie... Ellie said on the way down to the hospital, "Mom, what's that baby's name?" I told her, "It's Gracie." She said, "Oh yeah, Gracie. She is my very Favorite!"

Birthday Boy!

Happy Birthday Uncle Jeremy!...... We LOVE you!

.Baby Gracie.

Sounds like Baby Gracie is here and she is JUST FINE! Yahoo!!! 5 lbs, 8 oz and 18 inches long. We love you baby Gracie.

Ahhh!!

My sister's water just bRoKe!!! I'm going to be an Aunt again! It's supposed to be a girl and I think they are going to name her Gracie Maddison?! This will be another Peemie baby though so will everyone say a little prayer for them!

.Turkey Day.

Okay, Okay... I know I'm way late on the Turkey Day post but here it is anyways :) We had a really good day. Jeff's dad flew in from K.C. and his brother Jeremy came over for dinner. My family all came out- except for Sara (we missed you guys). We ate Turkey, Mashed potatos, corn, stuffing, yams, more Turkey, rolls, jello salad, egg nog, and lots and lots of pie- including the DELICIOUS pumpkin cheesecake pie Mindy brought! Yeah, I am pretty much still suffering from the pants fitting a little too tight! Oh well....
The kids loved their "cute little turkey". They wanted to watch my every move as I prepared the Turkey for eating... sick, huh?

The BoYs can't have a Holiday without football... I swear! Either it's on the T.V. or in the back yard. Even when it's not offiicially "football season" there is always NFL Europe or some other conspiracy to provide some entertainment for these men.

. My Taterbug.

El-bell and Ry-guy! Family is great, isn't it! I love you all. I hope to spend some good time with everyone this Holiday Season.
