Full of Thanks- November 2014

We had an amazing month of November! Full of family and parties and FOOD. It was wonderful!
We were able to get together with the Ellis side of our family multiple times over the month of November. One of these instances we were able to get a picture of all of the grandbabies! So much fun to see all of these cousins together. Abe and Monet love to play with cousins!
Monet turned one and we were able to celebrate all day long. We started with her favorite breakfast, scrambled eggs!
I spent time making a smash cake, some mini cupcakes and other mini treats for our Minnie Mouse Tea Party!

 While I was cooking and prepping, Abe read Monet some of her favorite books. It was so fun to see them together with books spread out on the floor. I have a picture, similar to this one, of me reading a book to my little brother. Makes me smile that these kids will be friends growing up!
 Monet had a special Minnie Mouse skirt to wear!
 And of course we had a party!
 CAKE!
 We call these three, "the triplets". Three cute little girls who I hope grow up to be close friends.
We decorated for Christmas!
 Nikki and Bryan hosted the Crown Family Thanksgiving this year and it was DELICIOUS! Nikki is quite the amazing cook and hostess!
And, in true Crown fashion, we had a pinata!
 These kids really love their Grami and Grandpa!
We had such a fun month, and so many good times with the people we love. The Holidays are really a great time for us!
