We headed to Boise for a fun-filled and busy week. We never seem to have enough time to see everyone we would like, even while running ourselves ragged. Brooklyn had a BLAST playing with all her cousins and friends and LOVED being around her grandparents. I wish I would have taken more pictures with my parents and the kids, but I did get some good ones with Brooklyn feeding the cows with my Dad. She loved feeding the cows! Little does she know, but we will be eating those cows in a few months. : ) We blessed Troy while we were there in my parents home and had a huge showing (and circle!!). They lulled him right to sleep with their bouncing. While we were in town, my neice Katie broke her femer (poor little girl!!), so we visited her in the hospital. She has a cast on both legs up to her waist, but it's hot pink, so she doesn't seem to mind it too much yet. We had dinner with Erik's siblings, made pies with my sisters, I chopped my hair off (YEA!), watched the BSU game with our good friends, shopped at the SUPER Walmart (we don't have one here), and enjoyed the beautiful sunshine (even though it was FREEZING). For Thanksgiving, we ate with Erik's family at the church (in order to accomadate the huge group). They had a pinata for the kids which was really fun. I enjoyed it since I didn't have to cook the whole dinner (like I have for the past 5 years in a row!). I actually got to relax! Then we had dessert with my family at my parents. All in all it was a great trip, but we were glad to be home again in our over-cast "little" town. Although, we already miss all of our family and friends, but we hope to be back soon to visit again. Thanks to my Mom and Dad for again letting us use their car all week and for letting us crash at their place. And thanks to Dee and Terry for watching Brooklyn while Erik and I enjoyed a little date out with his siblings. I have more pictures to post, but they aren't letting me now for some reason. To be continued...
What Troy did while we ate TG dinner.
A little photo shoot at the train depot before TG dinner.
Brooklyn was NOT a happy camper.
Riding the swing, and feeding the cows with Grandpa Hill. The cows let her get REALLY close.
What does a cow say Brooklyn? "Mooo!"
With Grandpa Paternoster before getting blessed.
Our 2 kiddos. I made their outfits. They aren't perfect, but I'm still proud. : )

Our little happy family!

If we would've had a breather during the holidays it would have been so fun to see you guys! cute cute pics.
The kids were great on the airplane! We luckily had a seat for Brooklyn on the way there and back. They slept the whole way home. We did make the mistake of giving Brooklyn a sucker on the way to Boise, so she got a little wired, but she was a good girl. We have been blessed with easy children!
What a fun Thanksgiving! I love the new haircut and the outfits you made are darling!
