Reflecting on Savannah's birth

We just had some pictures put on CD from Jeannine's camera from Savannah's birth. Though it was almost a year ago, it made me reflect on that day, and what a special blessing Savannah has been to our family. Time goes by quickly when you're raising a family, and it's easy to forget some of the details of your children's lives. Little Savannah has grown so much, it's hard to believe she was ever this little.

Setting up the Christmas tree

Yes, Christmas has come and gone, but we're slow in updating things. Kaitlyn was really excited for Christmas this year, which made it more fun for Brandon and I, as this is the first year she's really started to grasp the concept of Christmas. When we told her it was time to put up our Christmas tree and decorations, she went bonkers, and wanted to help so bad. It was really fun as a parent to see your child get so excited over an event like Christmas. Usually putting up the decorations is such a chore, and sometimes hard for us to enjoy doing, but seeing Kaitlyn's enthusiasm made it worth the work. Anyway, here are a few photos of Kaitlyn putting things up.

Thanksgiving

Yep, still behind, and trying to catch up.


We spent Thanksgiving this year at Brandon's parents house, though it doesn't appear Brandon was there from the pictures we took. Sorry Brandon.

Andrea, Jon, and Nathan joined us for the dinner, and the food was delicious. We have a lot to be thankful for.

Apparently, Kaitlyn did not want her picture taken.
