well, I think these pictures uploaded in the opposite order that I intended so we will go in reverse. starting with today. Shad got glasses!! On our trip to Idaho, we were playing the alphabet game, and the poor kid couldn't find any letter sthat weren't a foot tall. so we decided to take him in when we got home. His eyes are -1.50 and -1.25. I was in 2nd grade when Tracey and I got our glasses too. The Dr said it is hereditary and they will continue to get worse as long as he continues to grow taller. He was so happy to be able to see the leaves and the signs and the grass! I remember the feeling well. ;o) I think he looks pretty cute and he seems happy with them. Hopefully things go well at school.
We went to My mom's Friday to see Ryan's, Todd's, and Tracey's families. we had some leftover turkey dinner and the kids all sat at one table. this was only half of the 23(soon to be 24) grandchildren my parents have. Shad was ducking down for the first photo.
Brandon's parents just added a new garage and a room above it. we had so much room for our Thanksgiving dinner!! There were 12 kids and 10 adults. We were only missing Kristen and Amanda's husbands.
a picture of the 3 five year olds on the Bloxham side. They are all so mellow and easy. They palyed so good together. There are also 3 two year olds but they were all beating on each other.
On Wednesday we made "gingerbread" houses out of graham crackers. the kids had a blast. I have an individual picture of each child but these are just my 3 so this isn't a million pages long.
Shad had the whole thing covered in candy!
Gracie just mostly wanted to eat all the candy and lick the frosting.
This is a cool book my Dad bought at Costco that is kinda like a where's waldo but it has a list of things to find on each page and there were a lot of different pages for hours of fun for all the grandkids.
Maiah, Chloe, Alexa, and Kathryn.
We had a lot of fun seeing everyone. We missed those we didn't see. We split the driving into 2 days this time -both ways- so we were actually driving for 4 of the 10 days. crazy. Poor Brandon worked 19 days in a row to get the time off and we got back last night and he works the next 6 nights. He also did almost all of the driving. I think I did about 3 of the 18-19 hours each way. Hopefully we won't have to drive again.
We also got our tree today, I will post it later. ;o)
my pretty girls
Chloe and Santa. She asked for pixos. (whatever those are!)haha
I was so surprised that
