This Thanksgiving we were able to go "home" and spend time with our families. We had a great trip and were thankful for our time with our family! On Wednesday when we got into town we headed over to Steph and Brian's new house....we love your new house it is so pretty! That night for dinner we all met my parents and went out for dinner. The food was great and we surprised Jeremy and had them bring out an ice cream sundae for his birthday. Believe it or not he was a little embarrassed. Whenever we all get together you know there has to be pictures...... These 2 couldn't leave Austin alone, the love their cousin! The girls had fun together ...... Here is my family..... Here is a me and my sister,yes she is younger.... We spent Thanksgiving day with Jeremy's family. I can't believe this is the only picture i have from that day, must be because i was too busy enjoying the food after it was prepared that i didn't even think of taking a picture then. Jeremy

Tonight was a particularly special night at the Brown household. We spent our normal Tuesday Night Family night filling our gift boxes for Operation Christmas Child . We started the night out by watching a few videos called " follow the box " from the OCC blog (definitely worth the time if you haven't seen them). It sincerely brought tears to my eyes to think that we have some small part in delivering the ultimate gift to children AROUND THE WORLD (each box earns Samaritan's Purse the platform to share the Gospel with the children who recieve the gifts!). After dinner, we loaded up and headed to the store to enjoy a night of shopping for the children - WHAT A BLAST! Here are a few pictures of the girls at Dollar General... Each year that we have done this has been better than the last. This year, Marissa heard the total for the gifts for the box and told mommy "that is almost as much as Baby Alive." It was a great opportunity to point out how incredibly b

Well it is official my baby is 3. It is hard to believe! Yesterday morning as i was doing her hair, she informed me that the pony holder i had picked out didn't match her birthday dress. I just thought to myself, oh my are we starting that already! We didn't do too much special for her birthday yesterday since daddy had to work and her big sisters were at school. Plus we celebrated this past weekend with Nana and Papa and then next weekend we get to celebrate with Grammy and Grandpa. She did have her best buddy Easton over for a little while in the morning. These 2 are so cute together they always have so much fun being together! She is loving posing for the camera these days as you can see, even when she wants to take a picture of one of us, we have to put our hands just so and look over, maybe one day she will be a photographer. I think it is because we went to Sears for her pictures the other day. Here are just a few pictures from yesterday, hope you enjoy! I think i have a

It's hard to believe that my baby will be 3 in just 3 more days! She has developed such a fun little personality. She is always smiling and giggling, she adds so much to our family! She just loves her 2 big sisters, well at least most days. She has such an imagination and is always playing with her dolls and peoples. We are so greatful for the blessings that God has given us through our 3 beautiful daughters! Nana and Papa came out for the day today and we were able to celebrate Myah's birthday. Myah was really into her birthday today and i have lots of pictures to prove it. I think this is the first year she really understands that its her birthday and she gets presents and cake and all that fun stuff. She was being a little ham today. She even thanked God for her birthday during prayer before dinner toinght. Here are a few pictures from our day..... Thanks Emma Claire for the cute birthday dress!! Myah loves her little people from Uncle Brian Aunt Stephanie and Austi
