Thanksgiving

We had the best Thanksgiving! My two sisters and their families and my parents came to visit us! They were here for 8 days! We LOVED having them here. We spent the majority of our time on the road visiting church history sites. We spent Thanksgiving day in Nauvoo. My little girls had a blast with their cousins. Here are a few pictures from our trip...

Ella spent most of the 8 days in a car seat. She was the best baby!

The guys went to the Chiefs/Raiders game in Kansas City. They were on the 5th row/50 yard line.

GOOD TIMES WERE HAD BY ALL. :)

Walk at the Governor's Mansion



Since our move to Kansas, we have loved to take walks at the Governor's Mansion. We have made it a tradition to go on Sunday afternoons. The weather was perfect today for a walk, so the girls and I went this afternoon. It was gorgeous!

Sweet Ella



Ella is the best baby! We feel so lucky to have her. She is so happy and sweet. We love her so much.

Halloween



Every year our girls just can not decide what to be for Halloween. This year we had a battle because they both wanted to be the Barbie "Genevieve". They cried about it up until yesterday afternoon. They talked it over and made a compromise. To my surprise it went in Addie's favor. :) Addison decided to be the Barbie "Genevieve" and Olivia decided to be Genevieve's sister "Lacy" (whoever that is). We went to "Trunk or Treat" at the church and then went trick or treating with a group of friends. We borrowed a little cheetah costume for Ella. She was very frustrated with her nose, and absolutely not in the mood for whiskers!
