It's been a while

Blogging hasn't been a priority lately...obviously. And honestly, I'm not sure how long I'm going to keep this up. I might be doing a montly highlight post from now on. :) Anyway, here's a quick recap of the last few weeks.

A "just because she's cute picture". :) Love this shirt from our sweet neighbors. It says "Little Sister".

To kick off the Holiday season we headed with all the Rinks to stuff stockings for those in the Military. I love that my kids get to "serve" and "give" and not just "get" during Christmas.

Another just because pic. After all she's why I started this blog. :)

The following week we headed to my parents for Thanksgiving. Bless my mom's heart. She hates turkey but made it for the rest of us. Actually, my dad grilled it. Yummy. Thanks for the great weekend Mom and Dad!

The little boys watching a movie.

The big kids playing a game. I know Bart is really not wanting to give this money to Ems. :)

After Thanksgiving we headed to a hotel for an extended family Thanksgiving. My kids talk about this year round and look forward to it so much.

Jada still has Giardia and couldn't swim. So sad. She LOVES the water. She was getting so excited just watching everyone splash and play.
So, Quinn, being the thoughtful guy that he is, brought a hand full of water to Jada so she could splash too. :)
Then, Daddy, being the fun one, took her into the water so she could splash and play a little without getting wet.

Fun with cousins.

And finally getting our tree. Kade informed me that our house is just really pretty boring. Not near enough decorations. I don't go all out, but we do get a real tree ever year and I guess that will have to do for now.

And one last just beacause. :)

Hope you all had a great Thanksgiving and I can't wait to get your card in the mail! ;) One of the highlights of my year, getting Christmas cards from friends and family. Love it!
