Big Blue Eyes

It doesn't seem fair that a little boy has such pretty eyes...

Happy Thanksgiving

We've been having so much fun and staying so busy, that we haven't had a chance to post online. Last Saturday we celebrated with the Fouquette's and on Thanksgiving day, we celebrated at home. Lots to eat, plenty of football to watch and a little boy who is trying to crawl! BUSY BUSY BUSY!! Any spare time was spent putting things up on shelves.

Grand Fun in Grand Forks

Matthew and Mama went to Grand Forks for a long weekend visit with Trista, Christopher and baby Natalie (Matthew's 2nd cousin) The kiddos had so much fun and wore each other out! Hopefully we'll be able to get together again soon - we just wish that we didn't live so far apart!

We ended up being only 5 miles from David's Aunt Betty and were able to visit with her and the family for a little bit too. Here is a picture of Matthew with his Great-Aunt Betty and cousin Cassie (she is going to UND in 2009)

UH OH!!!!! Look what Matthew is learning to do... no forward progress yet, but our days of easy baby-sitting are numbered!

Ga and Pap come to Minnesota

Ga and Pap (aka Grandma Ginny and Grandpa Kay) were here to visit for a while last week. We didn't get any pictures posted during that visit because we were so busy having fun! So here are a few to catch us up to date

Go North, young man

Mama and Matthew are going to see Baby Natalie and her parents in Grand Forks, ND this weekend, so so new posts until Sunday when we are back. Here is one last picture to tide you over

The boys

It's fun to see Matthew and Nick together - Matthew just idolizes his big brother and Nick has a good time making his little brother laugh

Matthew votes early and votes often!

Matthew and Mama went to the polls at 7:15 this morning to vote for Mr. Obama. We had a good time - the voting judge is a friend who held Matthew for a little while and then Matthew got his "I Voted" sticker.

This afternoon, Matthew will go back to the polls with Daddy and vote for Mr. McCain. I think Matthew is just hoping to get another sticker! No matter what, Matthew will have picked the winner!

Happy Halloween!

Matthew had fun on Halloween and even went trick-or-treating at Great-Grandma Maggie's house. No candy for little bees this year, but he's all practiced up for next year!
