What We've Been Up To

Having tantrums over not wanting to eat Brocolli!!

Building Legos a new way!!

Making 'shakes' with our toys.

I made this little quilt from a kit. It was the first time I have ever done a patch quilt that wasn't just squares, and I hated it!!! Just because of the minky, it's too slippery. But it's done and Mara ignored me the whole time I did it, so I can save it for Christmas!!!

The kids like to hide when Mana and Dad come home and this is their favorite hiding spot.

For Thanksgiving we went to my sis-in-law Gwen's home. Most of the Tolman family was there, plus Pat's Grandma Ethel, Aunt Kimbur, Uncle Kevin & their kids. So of course we had to do group photos.

Here's Grandma Ethel with the Great Grandkids.

Then Grandma with her Grandkids.

Then Grandma with the Tolman Family!

And then an all girls picture!

Mara decided to be the helper that she is and sweep the floor!  It was great!  Gwen has a swiffer that has a little vacuum attached. I SO need to get one!

Mara & Grandma Ethel playing the piano.

I didn't take many pics of Xan or the rest of the family, but I know Lana & Tammy did!

Mara was soo tired that she crashed on the way home and then was really mad when I had to wake her up to get her in her jammies. But at least she slept all night :)

On Friday Pat's brother Ben & his family came down for a few days. We did alot of hanging out for the 2 days, went out to eat a few times and just sat around talking :) 

Aubrey & Mara decided to play Ring Around The Rosies with Maddox & Brody. It was so cute!

Then Mara got the camera and took some pretty good pics.

Me, Amber & Bryton

Ben & Bryton

So overall we've been busy with family and enjoying the holiday.  Friday & Saturday my mom got the house decorated for Christmas (pics to come) and we're totally ready for Christmas to come :)

Another thing that we're waiting for is baby #3 to come. Too bad we have to wait 6 more months :)
