quick update...

We're still here.. my internet has been extremely SLOW lately. I've logged on more than once and gotten frustrated when I couldn't get any pictures to upload. Therefore...no recent posts. I'll do pictures as soon as I figure it out.

We're all doing good. We had a great Thanksgiving with family. Cody's brother and family came from Texas and the kids all had a blast together. We only see them about once a year, so we tried to make the most of it. We did picnics at the park, the boys did some hiking, fun Thanksgiving day, and just hanging out playing games. It was a good week.

We're now in the middle of getting ready for Christmas, and all the fun planning and shopping that goes along with that. Avery and Liam are counting down, they are fun ages for holidays.

Our little Emrie is growing so fast. She's six weeks old tomorrow. She's already gained around two pounds. Cheeks and legs are growing quickly to our delight. She's sweet, but also very demanding and quite moody..we'll see what she has in store for us. We love her very much. Avery is looking forward to a break from school. She's doing great and learning so much, but doesn't like to wake up in the morning and is excited about some sleepin in time. I must say that I am too, it's quite a chore to get all of us out of the house in the morning.

We hope everyone has great holidays. Hug the ones you love and have lots of fun. We know we will. Pics soon I promise.
