Grandma with Nolan
Dinner: turkey, gravy (my first attempt ever), stuffing, green bean casserole (Ireland boy favorite), smashed potatoes (a Rahab quote!), orange jello, wild rice hot dish, & cranberry sauce
Best part! No dishes for me…!
Only five pictures from the day!  Can you believe I only took five!  The one with Grandma & grandkids was taken by Kaley!  Thank you for capturing that moment!

Happy thanksgiving 

Love the Ireland’s 

Visit to ND

We headed to Fargo, ND for Halloween this year! Our kids went trick or treating, door to door, for the first time .  It was fun to watch them go around the same neighborhood I grew up in.

Plane trip!

Lots of seeds!

Here is a video that captions Halloween night!

We had a great visit with the Barrus Family.  Very thankful to see my extended family when we visit ND aka home.   Lots of treasured spots around Fargo.

The other part of our trip was to witness Nolan’s baptism!  What an honor to be there for our nephew as his God parents!  Greg was able to participate in baptizing Nolan.  What a precious moment for our family!
