SLEEPOVER TIME!!!!!

It's time for another sleepover at Nanny's! Jordan had to get ear tubes in the morning so Bradley got to have a sleepover at our house. As long as he has his "Bear Bear" and his blankie he is good to go.


Joe and I were putting together some new pictures for the wall and Bradley was our little helper...he was the tape cutter. He got really excited when Joe told him he could help us with it!


And then it was time to go to bed. At first he got scared and said there were monsters, but I told him we don't let monsters in our house and he turned over and closed his eyes. We love sleepovers with Bradley! Next time it will be Jordan's turn. He threw quite the royal fit when Bradley got to leave with us and he had to stay home. We love you too J-Boy!!!

Oh Christmas Tree, Oh Christmas Tree!

It's a little early, but Joe and I put our Christmas tree up today. Christmas is my favorite holiday so I was a little excited, and we figured we will be too busy with work coming up so this was our only time to do it. We had a lot of fun with the Christmas music in the background. Joe sat back and watched as I decorated...he's good at telling me where there needs to be more of something. Anyway, an early Merry Christmas to you all!

Life Without Kids

Joe and I don't have any kids yet so our spare time usually consists of spending time with my nephews Brayden, Bradley, and Jordan (and soon to be Duke boy #3) and niece Maggie. Whether it's babysitting or just hanging out I can always seem to find some reason to get to see them. We love them all so much and they make me so excited to have children. I have loved having kids arounds ever since my mom started doing foster care. I feel empty without them. I can't wait until I am lucky enough to have my own.

The Three Little Ones

Ryan, Hannah, and Zach. My 3 younger siblings. I love them more than anything! They bring so much joy into my life every time I get to spend time with them. They always seem to find a way to make me smile. I'm so glad they were brought to our family and that I get to be their big sister. I love you guys so much!!!

Japan

Joe served his mission to Japan. He loved the country and the people very much. It truly was his "best two years"! We hope to be able to someday go back there together so he can show me the country that he enjoyed so much.

They Roped Me In!!!

Well, Cindy and Chelsea have finally talked me in to blogging. I'm thinking maybe it won't be as hard as I thought. Hopefully I can keep up with it like they do. So look forward to more from Joe and I.
