We were blessed with my two brothers and their families visiting us the weekend before Thanksgiving. We all were super excited to spend some time with them. Thank you so much for making the effort to come, dear brothers and sisters! It happened to be Hadden's 1st birthday over the weekend, so we even got to share in that! We also got to visit Caleb's wife's family for thanksgiving in Michigan. (Try and have pics to come.) The Southerns were so gracious and hospitable. It was truly a celebration! It was nice to have a bit more time to be with Caleb and Becca and for ConLai to become comfortable around them.
ConLai's cute new outfit from Gram-O and A. Dhana - thank you!
Amidst the fun, Anthony has been working super hard on the bathroom. He finally finished all the tile (not shown in pic) and just has grouting left. He has done such a great job, taking time to make sure he does things right. I think he's a great handy-man.
Completely unlike our cleany ConLai, Hadden dug right into the cake. He had no problem getting his hands dirty to complete the job. ConLai was quite disturbed when Hadden would reach over and get frosting on her chair. He's a great lil' brother/cousin. :)
Hadden was incredibly smart in figuring out how to open presents.
For the first time since being here, we made the climb to the top of the Sears Tower. It was fun to see the city from above and to venture onto "the Ledge"....a window box that sticks out from the building. The kids had no fear in going right up to the window.
The newlyweds.... :)
And you wonder where Diek gets his expressions from?? :) We love you Alicia.
