Thankful for Thanksgiving!

Austyn and Dustin came from New York to see us for Thanksgiving! We had so much fun and were glad to not be alone for the holiday break. For Thanksgiving day we got together with a bunch of law school friends for some tasty food and dessert. The rest of the day was spent watching football and reminiscing. Friday, Austyn and I (with the kids) hit the sales while the boys went shooting. We got some good deals and the guys had fun doing something manly. That night we went to Smitty's for dinner and a movie (THANK YOU PRATTS FOR WATCHING KIDS!), followed by a night of rock band (THANK YOU ALLEN'S!). It was great just to chill, watch movies, and be with friends. THANK YOU Austyn and Dustin for coming to see us and....MOVE TO D.C.!

Before they left we did a little photo shoot...and doesn't Austyn look awesome for being 8 months pregnant???...Dustin looks good too!

Just like old times

Hard core!

Woooah dude!

Chillin' at Smitty's

The boys looking HOT!

Dustin taught Jace all of his letters...well the letter "D" anyway

Twilight

So, a lot of posts lately have been about the Twilight movie. I think everyone has heard my opinion on the movie, so I will spare my comments for the time being. I will just say that the books are always WAY better. Maybe if I see it again, I might have a different opinion on it. But, we (Laura, Dee, Kylene, and myself) had a blast going to the midnight showing...even if we were the oldest ones in the theater.

Ming a Mo

TRANSLATION: I have no idea! He says it all the time and I have no idea what it means. He usually says a high Ming a mo and then a low ming a mo. If anyone has any ideas as to what he's referring to let me know!

Pictures

So, today for church Lexi and Jace were both wearing black and pink...super cute if I do say so myself. I wanted to get a few pictures of them together after church in their color coordinated outfits and this is what I got:

You can take our picture if you can catch us

See if you can take my picture while I'm running at you

I'll let you take a picture of me...as long as Lexi's not in it

I said that first Jace

Close, but no cigar

This is a good one...jump in front of Lexi right before mom takes the picture

Alright, it's all fun and games til someone tries to take a head off
