Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving (be it a little late) from our family! We had a great holiday - enjoying time off from school and work. Our family has so much for which to be thankful, and we are reminded of that especially at this time of year.

We spent Wednesday night having dinner at Gigi and Gipa's house. The food was delish and we were happy to be able to visit with Emily (John's daughter), Steve, and Reed.

On Thanksgiving Day, we went to Mimi and Pop's for more turkey and trimmings. Mimi started a new tradition of having the kids decorate gingerbread houses on Thanksgiving. They loved it!

Here are some pictures from our Turkey Day. We are still stuffed from all the good food!

Cute Reed!

Fun at Mimi and Pop's ...

Henry is ONE!

We celebrated Henry's 1st Birthday on November 22nd with lots of family and friends! We chose a "little monkey" theme for his party - very fitting for our little climber! Henry truly enjoyed having all his favorite people in one place, and his first tastes of cake and ice cream.

I can't believe he is a year old! It is so bittersweet. I want him to stay a baby since he is our last, but at the same time it is so much fun watching him grow and develop into an amazing little boy! Henry has been such a joy. He is the little boy that Bart and I never thought we would have or even wanted, but we were so wrong! Henry is such a blessing to us all, and has completed our family.

I had probably 200 pictures from the party, so needless to say it was hard to narrow down my choices for posting here. Sorry there are so many ...

Happy Birthday Henry Bailey Hill! We love you SOOOOO much little man!
