Thankful for Family

Rebecca & Seth delighted us with duets. So good to hear our piano sing!

Aunt Terry getting her Nate time too.  By the end of the evening we were all happy and content.


DeAnn and Jared on Sunday after church. Congrats on your engagement. 

Fun was had by all and family members missing were greatly missed indeed.  Love and Happy Thanksgiving to all.

Thanksgiving Party in Solon

Lots of visiting and catching up to do.

Nic and Seth were so great at keeping Logan and Mark entertained.  Nic and Logan were playing air hockey and Logan actually scored on Nic.  You don't have to teach  boys to be competitive.
Gals chill'in.  Aunt Patrice with Nate.


Jared gets his Nate time too.

Hallock Party in Strongsville

Martin, Terry and I were heading out so Terry stepped into the play room to say 'good-bye'.  She took one look at this scene and said, "Good-bye Drones".  No response.  Good call.

Mark enjoying his pumpkin pie.

"Are all those people still here cousin Rachel?"


Thank you Meghan & Zak for a great evening of  food, laughter, and fun family time.  Hallock parties rock!

Another Celebrity Sighting

Michael & Logan being buddies.

Oh my goodness!  It's the ever popular debonaire guys, Jared & Eric.


Rachel & Zak having a little adult conversation, I think.

More Fun in Strongsville

Unc and Logan asked to leave the "adult" area.

Which they gladly did by retiring to the play room for the "swan dive"!

Eric & Georgia enjoying each others company.



So glad to see Jared!

Greeting Committee in Strongsville

First, Logan & Mark greet the guests.

Then they....


take you down!

Thanksgiving Celebrities & Shopping

Here are a few photos that the paparazzi snapped during the first couple of days of Thanksgiving...

Nate enjoying his adoring fans. It was difficult to even walk through Beechwood without being mobbed by "Oh, he's so cute! And look at his adorable outfit!"

Rachel and Nate on the hunt for gifts.

Nate -- being so sought after is so tiring.

Eric---polishing his ride.


Oh my gosh, it's more celebrities. 
Stay tuned. We may have more celebrity sightings. If we're lucky, we may Add Videoget a shot of the elusive Logan---the brother of the growing popular, Nate.



"Gotchya"  Nate giving a shout out to his peeps.  I met Meghan at the pediatricians office today to help with a double check up.  The boys were deemed brilliant and healthy.  The doctor stepped out of the exam room and we could hear her say, "LOTS of shots in room #4".  Logan and Nate were very brave and courageous.

OK. Where's the baby?  He is nursing quietly under the nursing-apron thingy, which is really just an apron with a flexible headband sewn in it so the mother can observe the baby while enjoying the security of discretion. We used receiving blankets that often fell off or were pulled away by the flailing arms of "feed me now!" babies.   What a handy dandy mothers' helper for a mere $40!!! Wish I had thought of it!

You may think, "oh, so sweet. Logan and Unc working on a puzzle together. But no...


...they are dividing up the market share profits.
