30 days...

2007: I was lucky enough to go to Disneyland with my brother Mark, his wife Gwen, their 4 kids: Noah, Ethan, Abby and Cole, Gwen's brother Greg and my other brother Daniel.


Good times!

Happy Birthday GPA!

Today is Gpa Clyde's birthday. Although the party will be held at the end of the month, we decided to bring a cake over and surprise him after lunch. Grandpa's favorite cake is a yellow cake with white frosting and topped with bananas! My nephew Cole helped me with the bananas!


Gma Carol lit the candles which my niece Abby arranged.

So much to be Thankful for...

I am so thankful for my family and for the fact that we are all so close to each other. The picture is kinda dark but this is Justin, Lila, Evan, Uncle Daniel, Tyler, Cole, Noah, Ethan and Abby. My 2 boys, my baby brother and my nieces and nephews.


My mom and dad and my brother Daniel...Daniel is always keeping us laughing.

We also celebrated 3 birthdays. Cole, Mark and Daniel.

Cole and Mark read his card.

Lila and Daniel and one of his gifts. His FAVORITE I'm sure...

Quality Time...

My brother Mark and his wife Gwen are celebrating their anniversary at Disneyland. This means my parents are having some quality time with their kids- Noah, Ethan, Abby and Cole.
Today Justin and I went to their house to get in on the quality time. Abby read her homework story to me and then showed off her talent of walking with a book on her head!


The boys played in the rain in the back yard and then Ethan put on a video to watch. He was momentarily joined by Cole.

Noah and Justin then played the Wii but were kind enough to pose for a picture. Crazy cousins!

Happy Birthday Ethan and Abby!!!

Last night we were invited to Mark and Gwen's house for a birthday party for Ethan and Abby!
(even though I neglected to invite them to the Hawaiian BBQ...) We had a wonderful time with them!


Ethan turned 9 on April 12th. Here he is with Leo the leopard lizard webkins he received.



Abby turned 7 on April 7th. Here she is with her new iPod!

Cousins!!!

What a great shot of the Miller cousins! Growing up my brothers and I had no cousins. Mom and Dad were both only children, we had grandparents in the area but no COUSINS! I can remember my friends talking about going somewhere or doing something with their cousins and never experiencing that myself. I am so glad that my children have cousins and that we are all close together! (Pictured: (L to R) Tyler, Noah, Evan, Lila, Ethan, Justin, Abigail and Cole). It is also pretty special to be "Auntie Holly"!!!
