thankful heart + family time

today was so fun!  my big brother (who is also michael) and his family came up from dallas for thanksgiving.  his kids are getting way too big.  seriously, his 10 year old is almost as tall as me. we went to a fun park and i took lots and lots of photos.  we ate at old chicago (they give kids real dough and some random toppings to play with) and then went to good ol' bass pro to see santa.... but he wasn't there.  we had fun anyways.  bass pro is a pretty magical place for little ones around this time of year.  i'm thankful for all of my family and i'll be seeing them on thanksgiving day, but today i was thankful to spend some much needed time with my brother.

it'll be quiet on the blog the rest of the week so i can spend all my time with my husband and family!

sorry in advance for the abundance of pictures. i took LOTS more, too.
meet brennan, evelyn grace, jackson, and nolan :)
