Illinois Bound!

Well Everyone- Tomorrow afternoon we will begin the 24 hour journey back to Illinois! Oh yes- it is going to be great fun. Brad, Me, our friend Eric, Josiah and our two dogs- all in the mini-van! The plan is to leave around 1:00pm (the key word here is plan :) then it's about a 24 hour drive without all the stops we are going to have to make on a count of Josiah and the dogs! So don't be hurt if you do not receive a call from us until Saturday after we sleep in!! We can't wait to see everyone!! Keep us in your prayers as we make the journey across the country!!

Dog Treats!

Sy loves to give Chevy and Sanka treats- we usually let him give them each one when we put them in for the night. However- Brad let them in and then left the treats right where Sy could get them. I just happen hear the dogs chewing something and looked around the corner and this is what I saw!

The Mom Song

I had this sent to me in an email and thought I would pass it along!

Sunday Football!

Well today the guys decided to play football outside and Josiah was right behind them- any chance Sy can get outside- he will!



Sy loves the dogs and dirt!









Brad and JC probably don't want this on here because of the faces they are making- but I thought it was pretty funny!

My Poor Skinny Boy!!!

My poor little guy is so skinny- not a inch of fat on him anywhere! He eats like a horse but he burns off everything he eats! I thought I should get a picture of him shirtless (all ribs showing) and the shorts he's wearing are 6-9 months (and they still have to be rolled!)



More Christmas Lights!!

Here is another one of the many great lighted houses in our neighborhood! This house is probably he best/most decorated house and it can been seen form far away. You can't really see it in the movie but there is a huge triangular tower that shines for the whole neighborhood to see- I never have to worry about missing my street- the light guides the way!! Another interesting thing this family does is show movies on there garage door- I don't know which nights exactly- but they've done it both nights I drove by this weekend. You can hear the movie in the video too! Oh- they also serve pop corn and drinks!
