Happy Thanksgiving

the picture says it all...

Santa came early this year. Tommy got an XBOX 360 with Guitar Hero World Tour and other games. His brothers came over tonight along with Tim's girlfriend, Bethany, and we all played...some did better than others. :) I'll be able to record live tv with it too!

backyard fun

Tommy took a ride on his bobcat the other day and worked in the yard. He was able to cut out a lot of the weed grass (a.k.a. bamboo according to me). It's taking over our yard. With all of his hard work we can now see our neighbors and their two dogs that bark at us all the time. Now that it has been raining I am sure Tommy can't wait to get back on the bobcat!




treasures found in the yard

baby shower

Diana's baby shower for Kiera or Keira (they're not sure on the spelling) With all of our creative ideas we were able to put together this...

All the girls!
Diana's mother helped out a ton!-not pictured

Fun baby shower memory game- it is just like memory...when you get a match the prize is a candy bar that is a result of the matching words. For example, hospital bill = 100 grand candy bar. twins = Mike n Ike. It's a lot of fun and everyone is involved!

Congrats!

NOVEMBER - EMPLOYEE OF THE MONTH!
I am so proud of you Tommy!

girl's night out!

Diana and baby girl, Heather, Christin and baby girl, Lenore and Erin

"The girls" from Bible study all went to dinner at Buca di Beppo for a delicious dinner. We ate some yummy mozzarella garlic bread, mixed green salad, and 2 main dishes (Eggplant Parmigiana-Breaded and fried eggplant slices topped with marinara, fresh tomatoes, basil and mozzarella, then baked to golden perfection. Penne San Remo-Tender chicken breast, artichoke hearts, sun-dried tomatoes and peas tossed with imported Italian penne pasta in a white wine cream sauce). Next time we'll have to try their dessert.
