Christmas afternoon

Christmas Afternoon we were back at our house and had 2 sets of grandparents and 2 sets of great grandparents over for dinner. There are so many things to be thankful for this Christmas. Jerrad and I have been blessed with 2 beautiful children after years of trying and 3 infertility doctors. We could not have gotten this far without Dr. Littel and Dr. Trolice. We were thankful that Blake and Reese could have christmas dinner with 2 sets of grandparents and 2 sets of great grandparents. Not many children get to say that. I am extremly blessed that I was able to get a photo of 4 generations of Harley women. The greatest gift this Christmas was sitting down at dinner with the whole family present. I could not have asked for anything more. God bless you and your family and Happy New Year.
















































Christmas morning at Great Grandma & Grandpa Armstrong

Christmas morning we went to Grandma Dona's bright and early. Blake had a blast with Papa and Grandma, great grandma and great grandpa Armstrong and his great Aunt and Uncle.
















Christmas eve

Christmas eve we went over to the Granny and Papa Butler's for a Prime Rib dinner and to open presents. Reese loved her first purse and Blake had a great time with his airport and cars. Below are some of the pictures from that night.







Trip to Kentucky



On thanksgiving night we received word that Dot Dot had been airlifted to Lexington. They next Thursday we drove up to see her and so she could meet her new great granddaughter. It was very cold in KY and Blake was able to see his first snow fall.









Aunt Ann and Uncle Bill made a special trip from Ohio to see Blake and Reese. They bought Blake a Red Wagon that he absolutely loves. He wanted us to take him all around the house that day with him riding in the wagon. He had a blast playing with Aunt Ann as the picture below shows. Thank you for the great gifts and for making a 5 hour drive in snow just to see Blake and Reese.



Thanksgiving 08



Sorry it has been so long since our last blog. It is pretty bad when you are putting up your Thanksgiving photos after Christmas. This Thanksgiving was at my Mom and Dad's. It was as wonderful as it always is. My mom does most of the cooking and it ranks up their with any top chef and I swear my Dad makes the best turkey ever. Here are some of the pics from the days festivities.
