Happy 30th Birthday Mommy!!!!

The kids wanted to say Happy Birthday to their wonderful mother.

We all love you very much!

Thanksgiving & Decorating for Christmas

We had a nice Thanksgiving yesterday. Yummy dinner at my parents' house around 1:30 and a nice relaxing afternoon. Then, we headed over to Heather's parents' house in the evening to visit with Heather and Uncle Jeremy. It was a nice day, and we have so much to be thankful for!

Lily was a little cranky. We think she wasn't feeling well. Lily is wearing the adorable new outfit from Grammy and Grandpa Cross.

Lily took the next few photos. She did pretty well except for the finger in the way...

The Elf returned to our house last night! We read Lily the book last night and then she was excited to see him when she woke up this morning.

Eating leftovers for lunch today! And sitting in the big girl booster seat. No more high chair for this little girl!

Decorating the tree and listening to Chrismas music...still in our PJs

Putting her "Baby Girl's 1st Christmas" ornament on the tree.

We rearranged the house to give us more room. We blocked off the front door which is fine because we never use it. We really need a bigger house. Do you think Santa could bring that for us?

More bath time fun!

Christmas At Uncle Jeremy's with Mom & Dad Cross

Since Mom and Dad were up early this year, we celebrated Christmas early at Jeremy's house.

Jeremy's girlfriend, Heather and Dillon. Heather is moving in with Jeremy this month.
Cheeeeeeese!

Lily got a dress-up Dora outfit! It's adorable!

It's just a little itchy so we need to get her a t-shirt to wear under it.

Happy boy on a super soft pillow!

This is from the other night. Lily didn't want to get out of the tub, so Daddy put them in the tub together and they had fun!

My Surprise 30th Birthday Party

I have the most wonderful husband. Last Saturday he surprised me with a huge party at the Greentown/Uniontown Fire Station. The plan was for me to think my mom wanted to get Anson's family together for the holidays. It worked! I bought it 100%. It was only a few days before that I started getting suspcious but I never ever imagined it was all for me, and it would be as big as it was. We've got alot of funny stories about it. Anson had to lie to me for over a month and he had some close calls. I've never felt so loved as I did that night. Thank you, Anson from the bottom of my heart! I love you so much!

This was the biggest cake I've ever seen! Anson carefully thought it out and had different stages of my life pictured. It was very thoughtful and made me cry. His co-worker, Mary made it and it was the best cake I've ever had!

Embaressed as everyone sung to me!

I had 71 guests including all the kiddos. Anson even got in touch of some of my GOJO friends and they came too!

There's the party planner and the love of my life!
