Thanksgiving in WI

Thanksgiving Day, Wendy took some great family photos.

My bro's :) Mike, me, Dave and Chris
Family Photo, just missing Josh

Grandma Hathway and all the great grandkids

Lexi wouldnt look at the camera, but her outfit was SO cute

my little poser

see? wouldnt take a good picture. I dont care Lexi, your adorable even when your crying!

Sister pic. Poor Lexi. Cant believe her mama is making her take pictures.

Ah...a Hathway tradition. And can you believe with all these black olives, we didnt have too much left?

Even Kylee got into it. Of course, you gotta put 'em on your finger and eat them that way.

Finally, a picture of Lexi not crying! Must be because Grammy's got her.

Kylee wasnt playing with the rice krispy treats. They were delicious. Thanks Aunt Jean!

She even shared with me. That's love!

Cousin Alaina looked adorable in her ballerina outfit. I think she's all ready to go.

Kylee and her mittens. Lol. She loved them so much she didnt like to take them off. Even when she was eating.



Playing dress up, later.

Yes, it was nice enough the first week to play outside.



I love this. Benjamin, Evelynn and Alaina all dancing. What really happened? We were playing "Simon Says," and I made them walk and dance. Love that move :)


I had a fantastic time in Wisconsin, so happy I got to see so many people and spend so much time with the family. Evelynn and Alaina did an amazing job helping Kylee potty train and Lexi found herself a second mama (you'll see who in later posts). The second week was a little (okay, a lot) too cold for me but I'm glad we came to visit, anyways.

WI Visit, first week

Had a great time in WI. We got to spend almost a month with my parents. I know the girls really loved their Grandparent time. Kylee was telling me all day today, "Where's Grandpa, Where's Grammy?"




At my friend Gina's house, Kylee had her first kiss (gasp!) with Gina's son Daniel...they got along so well, I guess they wanted a kiss goodbye.
Lexi loved the Piano. I hope Santa brings one for Christmas!

Kylee also loved the piano

I got to see my two sweetie pies, Sarah and Karen. Time changes nothing, its like only a minute has passed when we see each other.

Grammy had all the grandkids cutout a trace of their hand to make "hand turkeys" for Thanksgiving. Great idea Grammy!Chillin, watchin some tube.


Leo playing Army like his daddy!

These two loved this table and chairs. Not sure why...but they both were really into sitting at the table and hanging out.



I think Kylee and Evelynn liked Uncle Mike

Crafts with Grammy

Time to color!

Pretty Miss Evelynn. Kylee had SO much fun with her. Evelynn and Alaina really helped with Kylee's potty training and talking a lot clearer. Wish we were around more often!

Boy Grammy looks really tired. She was up all night the previous night, Kylee was sick all night and Grammy was up with me and her all night. Thanks for your help mom!

Grammy got all the granddaughters Princess Jammies. Kylee, Lexi and Evelynn all put them on one night and loved them.

One of my Army battle buddies, Niki. Love you!

my babies :)

Grammy had so many fun dress up clothes!

Kylee loved playing with this mask. And for some reason, whenever she put it on, she made a very...dangerous sounding Quack.


This is right before we left for our WI trip. Lexi slept in a big girl bed for the first time!


Many more pictures to come :)

Lexi just loved walking around
