Addy's 1st Haircut

Addy had her very 1st haircut in Cincy with a girl I graduated with from high school. She was great! She mostly enjoyed making faces at herself in the mirror. I also got mine cut and she sat on my lap the entire time.

Visit with Grandma & Grandpa Neville

We traveled to Wilmington, OH to celebrate a delayed Christmas, due to our sicknesses, with my Dad & step-mom Sandy. Addy was most excited about a buddy for her "Lamby".

Christmas in Cincinnati, OH

Despite Jackson's sickness, we traveled Sat. night to OH to celebrate Christmas with my side of the family. Addy & Josh ended up sick on Sunday so they were in bed most of the day. I got a fever Sunday night but was lucky not to get the stomach troubles. It was a rough start but we were all healthy on Christmas Day.

Here's Addy decorating cookies with her Grandma and Aunt Ashley.


The weather was beautiful on Christmas Day as we prepared to travel to Urbana, OH for the annual celebration at Great Grandpa & Grandma's.

My brother & sister.

The great annual Christmas Day celebration with the family...Great G&G Wilkerson, us, Uncle Dave, Aunt Lynda, Jacob, & Josh Pendleton, Aunt Poo, Uncle Turk, Mallory & Luke McDevitt.

Christmas with Grandpa & Grandma Neubauer

Josh's parents, Joyce & Jeff, came from Beloit, WI Friday and stayed overnight. Josh and his dad worked on some home projects and cooked lots of yummy food while the girls played with the kids and talked. Jackson got sick with the stomach flu.

Laurel's 1st Birthday Party

Saturday we traveled in a snowstorm to Milwaukee to celebrate Laurel Fox's 1st birthday. Her parents, Meghan & Brad, are REALLY close friends of ours. I met Meghan during freshmen orientation 10 years ago at Marquette. We lived on the same floor and had the same major as biomedical engineers. And Brad came along a few years later as the hometown boyfriend. Josh and I were honored to be in their wedding. They moved to Florida after college and we took many awesome vacations to visit them. Last summer Meghan got a job at GE that she couldn't turn down so they are back in Milwaukee and we are so happy to have them close. We love you guys.


P.S. When we moved back to Gurnee, Meghan & Brad helped us paint & unpack, which was quite the job. Actually, they helped me move after college from Milwaukee to Grayslake into Country Faire Village apartments.

Domier Christmas Party

Friday night we had a blast at Vince & Barclay's annual Christmas party. This year's theme was Hollywood. Here are the hosts as David & Victoria Beckham.



I was Avril Lavigne & Josh was Bode Miller.

Christmas Party at Josh's Work

For lunch Friday we were in Kenosha, WI for Josh's Christmas party. Here's a picture of everyone who works with him. Dr. Jung is the other dentist and only other male in the picture. He lives at Prairie Crossing in Grayslake.

Playgroup

Here are the moms in our playgroup (Erin, Tracey, Lisa, Me, & Pattie). They are some of my closest friends. We've been meeting for lunch at alternating houses every Thursday for the last 2.5 years. Everyone in the group is pregnant except me:)


And these are our children.


P.S. We miss you Andrea & Kelsey!

Our Small Group

This is a picture of our small group aka bible study. Our life is enriched by the time we spend with these people talking and learning about God.


And here's Stacia who graciously babysits for us every Wed. so we can go. She's a friend who is a full time staff member at our church.

Cookie Exchange

Thanks to my friend Somer for hosting a fun girls night out cookie exchange. These girls (Pamela, Barclary, Somer, Erin, Shari, & Kelli) are all good friends from church.


This is what we each brought home. So beautiful! Good work ladies.

1st BIG Snow of the Season

So can you guess who had the most fun?

Dinner with the Wamsley's

This Sunday Jamie, Tracey, Jimmy & Toby joined us for dinner and the Chicago Bears game. Josh and I go to the Wamsley's on Wednesday nights for small group aka bible study. We enjoy sharing our lives and growing in Christ with them.
