Cousin Fun!

Emry made a trip to St. Louis this past weekend, 12/12/15, to see Cole and Finn. :) Ashley wasn't feeling well so Pete brought her. We went to BounceU to play and make cookies, went to the park, then just played!! It was so cute to see them together! It hadn't been since May so way too long. Love cousin time!

Christmas Tree Farm Fun

Sunday, 11/29/15 we headed to a Christmas Tree Farm in Wright City to cut down a tree. We found the perfect one according to the boys so we took it home to decorate. Santa was inside the shop but Cole got a little nervous so we didn't sit on his lap. We stopped by a winery/restaurant in New Melle on the way home then decorated. So fun that Grannie Annie and Papa could join us! 

Happy Thanksgiving!

We enjoyed a quiet long weekend at home for Thanksgiving while also getting out to Aunt Ellen's to enjoy an awesome dinner prepared by Grannie Annie. So much to be thankful for!

First Buck at the Ranch!

What a successful rifle season! We had a great time hunting, playing with the boys (Gigi watched them the second weekend), eating and drinking, AND Drew and Papa got a huge buck on Sunday, 11/22/15, the last weekend. They had hiked beyond the back 40 on corp land and happened to see a monster climbing a hill on the opposite ravine. They had a quick window and Drew placed the perfect shot. So neat that they were together!
