We've done so much since we last wrote - and it hasn't even been a full month!!
First off, we just love life. We are having so much fun just.. doing. Everything we do is more fun than the last thing we did.
Here's *some* of what we've done. (Mommy didn't get pictures of all of it because we had so much fun. We will try to tell you about them and you'll have to picture it yourself.
We drove to Pennsylvania. When we got into our friend Rita's community, it started to HAIL. Momma and Mommy said that it was like ice falling from the sky. It sounded scary, but mommy said we were safe in the car. When we got to Rita's house it had stopped, so we were safe! PHEW! It also snowed while we were there. Best part about going to Pennsylvania, is we got to see Julia and Dave GET MARRIED! We are so happy for them and for "our" baby Olivia. They already make such a happy family, so seeing them married was spectacular. We danced our hearts out on the dance floor. Uncle Matt was there, too. He's so much fun.
The wedding was supposed to be near this lake, but it snowed and was so cold.
They did it indoors and our table looked out to this lake. Very pretty!

and Dylan
There they are! Julia and Dave!
And of course, baby Olivia.
Mommy said that her cousin Lauren (Julia's sister) made this
bouquet for Julia to carry down the aisle.
Mommy said that was really special, but we just
think its really beautiful.
Uncle Matt and Momma!
Also in Pennsylvania, we went to a place called 'Poke A Nose Pottery" and we painted mugs. They came in the mail to us and we love to drink out of them.
Two weeks after Julia and Dave's wedding, we had a little surprise of our own. We flew (first time ever!) to Oklahoma City - on TWO airplanes - to meet our cousins and Aunt and Uncle. It was so super special. Mommy didn't tell them, but started dropping hints to Aunt Cat and Uncle Jay the morning that we went to the airport and then they surprised us AT the airport! IT WAS SO COOL. We met our cousins Isaac (13), Josh (8), Eli (4) and Gabe (2). Eli and Dylan became best buds very quickly and were practically inseparable.
Watching the planes at the airport, while we waited for ours.
The flight attendant said we should read our Safety Cards in the seat back pocket. We obliged!
WINGS!
On the second airplane, mommy let us watch some TV.
Each plane ride we got a snack and a juice!
Flying is tiring. We zonked out after getting to Abuela's house!
4 boys, doing what they do best
Isaac said we should line up in height order. That was super fun!
Cousin Isaac showed me how to use this thing called a "viewfinder."
Mommy said it was her favorite when she was a kid.
Eli had gotten some Crazy Sand for his birthday. THAT WAS AWESOME
Then there was a surprise birthday party for all 4 boys, They have some awesome family in Oklahoma who set this whole party up - even invited us. We had SO much fun!
Who is the real Captain America?
Family photo!
Cousins!
(OK, Isaac doesn't REALLY have a balloon for a face)
Then they had this thing called a pinata. You hit it with a stick and eventually, it bursts open with candy! Well, thats what mommy said would happen, but it didn't work out that way. After everyone had lots of tries, they ripped it open. (Mommy has a video on that later)
Uncle Jay let me use his super cool camera
Left to right: Josephine, Dylan, Joshua...HAH
OK so that's all Isaac/Josh/Eli/Gabe cousins! We were all at the
party together and so we took one big "cousins group photo"
After we all rested ALL NIGHT LONG from the party, we went on the Oklahoma City riverwalk. They are building it and its going to be SO COOL when its all done. It was really cool so far!
Lazy ones
Cousins!
There was a bridge to go on. Uncle Jay took us up there and we had more photos taken!
Cousin Isaac and Dylan
Sometimes, you just gotta run!
HUMAN BARRICADE
Relaxing in front of Sonic Headquarters
I really like to climb on my uncle
Back to the house to play some more...
Then we had to go home. Mommy tried to keep us busy so we didn't miss our cousins TOO much, but it didn't work very well. We want to see them again.
Mommy had us paint...
We left the paint to dry and went to get our veggies from the farm. On our way, we saw these thanksgiving turkeys running away...
WE MADE OUR OWN TURKEYS!
We hope that you all had a wonderful thanksgiving and enjoy December. Remember that the holidays are about family and love and togetherness and not about shopping!
