Thanksgiving 2016

This Thanksgiving we had all 6 missionaries over for our annual Thanksgiving feast. We made some of our favorite dishes and had a great time hanging out with the missionaries. We miss our family and hope we get to spend the next Thanksgiving with them! 

The day after Thanksgiving, our Christmas decorations are up!! This year daddy went all out with the lights and we love it so much! It's festive! 

PA Trip with the VanWagenens

Mark and Callie came to NY for Thanksgiving, and we met up with them in Philly for a day of fun. We missed them so much and are so happy they came to see us. Daddy worked overnight, came home and mommy drove us all the way there. We had a fun driving tour of the town, had some legit Philly Cheese sandwiches for lunch, and stopped by the Temple on our way out. It was such a wonderful day! 

Mommy's Birthday/Election Day

This year mommy's birthday is especially special because it happens to be the Election Day! While we were voting at Summit Park Elementary, Jade and her GS troop sold cookies outside! 

After voting (we are with her), mommy and daddy went to have a Sushi lunch. The next day, mommy's friends came over to have a hotpot lunch to celebrate more! 

Christmas Photo Shoo

We've sort of made it a tradition to take family pictures around mommy's birthday as a present for mommy :-) This year daddy took us to Lock Raven, a beautiful hiking trail in the woods for pictures. Jade wanted to take her easel and draw pictures while we were there. It was a beautiful day and we got some great pictures!
