Family visiting

The past few weeks have been filled with fun and family. Schon's parents and sister and our nephew came to visit and the next week my parents and sister and her kids came to visit. We had an awesome time hanging out with them. Thanks for coming to visit. This was our trip to

the pumpkin patch.

it just isn't fall without making carmel apples YUM!




We took the kids to build-a-bear and they got to choose special bear. The boys picked special High School Musical bears and Kennedie chose a "pink kitty cat bear" (she calls it) and Andrew made a darling doggy!

Jordan had a great time reading bedtime stories to Kennedie

We took a trip to Branson Mo and saw some of the sites!






Had fun going to Braums Ice Cream Parlor!
