BABY SHOWER

This is Janell's little (and favorite) sister, Bonnie. Since she hasn't blogged since.... April, I asked if I could help out :) Janell is getting BIG with "Baby". She has been getting the house and baby's room ready. A few weeks ago our other sister, Anne, came out and helped sew some bedding and I'm sure it looks so cute! We had a baby shower for Janell this weekend and here are a few pics of the bash. Lots of friends and family came to spoil our Nell!

This basket was Janell's as a baby, as were the dolls inside. Our mom made the blanket - very nice!

I guess it's about time

Every time I see a friend or family member, it's not "hey, how's it going" or "wow, it's been awhile." It's " YOU NEED TO UPDATE YOUR BLOG."

To be honest, there are only so many pictures I can post of Dan and myself before people start to think we're really narcissistic. So, I'll just do a quick rundown of stuff going on since Dec. 3rd, our last post.

1. We went to Colorado for Christmas, It was fun to hang out with the Williamson clan.

2. I decided I hate flying anywhere during the holidays.

3. Dan started finishing our basement, we decided the fireplace looked lonely down there.

4. The stock market tanked even more, so work has been super duper busy.

5. Construction on all roads leading out to Eagle Mtn. has commenced (YUK)

6. The Wal-Mart by our house is almost done (YAY)

7. Dan has to go to AZ to work for the summer : ( : ( That means I'm really sad. I've been clinging to him, he practically has to get a baby Bjorn for some help b/c I've been so clingy.

8. I've gotten 2 more nephews-- one just a few hours ago, as a matter of fact.

9. Dan let me turn our spare bedroom into a Nell Closet...so if we ever have house guests, they get to sleep in my closet. Lucky them!

10. A picture says a thousand words, or just two, but that's why I posted it, just in case you haven't read Joan's or Bonnie's blog or facebook, or our family website. We find out in a week if it's gonna be a Nood Bowl or a Nell Bell.... Oh- and this a me in about 3 months- not right now. I was trying the belly on for size.

So there ya go. Now when you see me, greet me properly!

If you want a full rundown of Thanksgiving, read Joanie's blog. I'm lazy...the turkey's making me sleepy, so sleepy...

Halloween Time!

After our continuous flow of trick-or-treaters, going through five bags of candy, we had an impromptu Bradford Halloween mini party. It was so fun to have all the little cuties over!

I let Boyd handle door duty for a little bit, and Mr. Popular there had about five of my neighborhood kids say-"Hey, I know you!" He's funny- I think he only recognized one of them, and he didn't even know the one kid's name. The boy has charisma.

Anyways, here are some photos of the fun night!

Before the white hair

I've attached some photos of family members. Mark needs to be reminded of the beautiful hair he once had.

These pictures probably haven't been seen by many of you. If my dad had his way, they would still be in a box in the attic. I now see what my mom saw in him.
