Favorite Things and Lovelace Happenings! :)

Thanksgiving was filled with family and friends, which is the only way to spend it!  We did miss Aaron's parents, but maybe we will spend next Thanksgiving with them (fingers crossed :)  Any who, we hung out with my family, then the Morgan's (Aaron best friend's family), then Aaron's side, and lastly a group of friends.  It was so fun and one of our favorite parts was playing games with Jeremy and Ari.  (Aaron's brother and his wife)  We also got to hold and play with baby Jackson which is always fun!  Leah loved Jackson and gave him lots of hugs.  :)  We are absolutely amazed at the community of friends and family we have and are so thankful to God for placing each of them in our lives!

On a different note, November has been as busy as every other fall month (all four of our birthdays fall within 6 weeks of each other, so this will be a norm)  Aaron and I joke that we should have any future children in the fall, so we can throw our children one big party.  :)  

Leah and Jackson, so cute!  

Cousins!  We will look back at this and cherish every moment we spent together as a family...
Love them!

Andrew's Big Boy Bed!!!

We finally got Andrew a big boy bed and he was so excited!  Aaron and I couldnt wait to see how happy it would make it.  He never disappoints in these situations and has always been so expressive.  You can the the video for how happy and astonished that this was actually his room.  These are memories I want to file away and remember when he becomes a teenager... :)

Climbing in...
