Thanksgiving Events

Our Thanksgiving celebration began at Addy's school with a kindergarten singing and dessert program.
Addy didn't want to sing so I told her to just pretend. Looks real to me. The program also included them reciting Psalm 23, impressive.
Thanksgiving morning I went to Walgreens early for the super deals. All of this was FREE, actually I made $10!
Then off to Grandma Neubauer's house for Thanksgiving Day to celebrate with her, Uncle Andy, and his girlfriend Claire.
Joyce graciously made ALL of the food. I was supposed to bring dessert but forgot it at home in the refrigerator!
Andy and Claire have been traveling from Maine to California on a music tour. We got to hear some sample songs.
Addy's 6th birthday was yesterday! She celebrated by going to Key Lime Cove waterpark with our neighbor Reese, her Grandma and Josh.
I am so thankful for my one and only DAUGHTER. I'm so proud of you and love you more everyday.
I'd like to show off our cute homemade stockings. Next year we'll have to make ones for Josh, me and the new baby.
We attempted some pregnancy pictures but it didn't go so well.
Addy ended up taking the best picture! You'll be seeing it on our Christmas card.

MOPS

These are all the girls at my MOPS table this year (minus Jaci). I love going to MOPS and being a leader makes it even more fun.
This was our most recent craft. I'm so proud of my first embroidered towel.

Aaron's 2 Now!

My mom and brother graciously came up to visit and celebrate Aaron's 2nd birthday with us. Grandma Neubauer also came for the party.
We ate yummy Italian Beef sandwiches for dinner.
And Joyce's famous ice cream cake for dessert.
Then we opened some fun gifts.
Jackson and Addy liked Aaron's gifts as much as he did.
Addy enjoyed working with my brother on some new crafts she got from him and my mom for her almost birthday.
Here's the next morning at Aaron's playgroup birthday party with friends.
He liked when everyone sang to him.
For gifts, I told people to bring a toy from their house that their kids didn't play with anymore. This is a Thomas the Train mini-set from the Wamsley's. It was a big hit!
Here's what else we've been doing lately. We are members of the Milwaukee Public Museum and love going there. The kids especially like the insect exhibit.
Addy and Jackson are crazy about coloring and drawing. Jackson is especially interested these days. He's writing his letters, all of our names, and making really neat pictures.
