Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving was great this year. 
We had everyone here at the same time.
It was so yummy.  Everyone brought something so it wasn't 'too much' to do.
Thanksgiving is one of my favorite holidays.  I just LOVE it.  The food, the family, the season, just perfect!

Halloween 2014

 

Halloween 2014 was a huge success!  Pumpkins were carved, costumes were cute, and treats were a plenty. 

 

The girls are getting so big, I know these days are fleeting.  Makes me a bit sad....BUT we are enjoying each and every second.
