It's almost Turkey Time and we are all looking forward to some time spent with family and friends celebrating and sharing the joys of the season.
I'm not sure how we already got to mid-November. It seems like it was just July - where does the time go?!
On August 7th, we measured Thatcher (2 1/2 years old) and as we were playing downstairs just the other day I had him stand up to his growth chart again - he's shot up over an inch in the past three months! And little Odin is not so little anymore. He measured in at 26 3/4 inches (96%) and 14 lbs 14.8 oz (54 %) at his 4 month check up this week.
The past few weeks have been filled with fun times - camping, trick or treating, hunting, and, of course, just playing!
Thomas the Train made his way through Starbuck and Glenwood, filling his basket with goodies, and even made the Starbuck Times last week!
We were also fortunate to have some friends come visit us a few weeks ago and we'll thank Lisa for capturing some great photos of us, especially the boys, while she was here.
Family photos are nearly impossible with two dogs, two kids, and two parents trying to get everyone looking but we did manage to get some funny, candid, photos. And even a couple of OK ones too.
All we can really say is that we are so blessed! It's hard to be mad or sad when our days are filled with so many happy, smiling faces and giggles that make your heart melt. It makes it easy to forget the occassional teary, whiny moments and make us thankful for everything we have.
Blessings to all of you this holiday season!
Now go enjoy your Turkey!
