Family Time

We were so blessed to have our entire family together for a few days over Thanksgiving!  There was a lot of visiting...

...reading...



...cousins playing together...






...and admiring the newest member of the family!



Katherine and Anna

Saturday we had a get-together with a lot of friends and neighbors, but we didn't think to take many pictures.

Audrey enjoyed holding Caitlyn




Caitlyn was worn out after a long day of attention!

Anna and Steven won't be back for Christmas this year, so the cousins exchanged gifts early.



Maycen was excited to sit by Caitlyn at church.

And finally, a few last pictures of Caitlyn...

A few of us and some friends went shopping one afternoon for items to fill the boxes our church packed for Operation Christmas Child.

We had a fun surprise one afternoon when a friend (whom we hadn't seen in several years) and her husband were in town and dropped by for a visit.

Rebekah, Eva, and Madison have matching skirts.  They decided to all wear them to church one Sunday.
