Max and Jax Arrived

Over the Thanksgiving Holiday our elves, Max and Jax arrived.  Memphis was beside himself with excitement.  He now wakes up each morning ready to go and find them.  HA!  Love the spirit!

So below are some of the things the elves have done thus far...enjoy!

November 24: Their arrival
They had written on the door stating they were back and ready for lots of fun this Christmas!

Friday November 25
Memphis stayed at Grandma and Grandpa's house so thankfully Max and Jax traveled there...they left quite the mess!

Saturday November 26
They must have heard Memphis say that he needed more ornaments!  Thankfully Max and Jax brought the boys each their own Christmas ornament to hang on the tree.

Jay brought Memphis Batman

Max brought Noah Darth Vader

Sunday November 20

I am so thankful that Chris, Sara, Zach and Bailey are apart of our lives.  I am pretty blessed that we have such an awesome family.  Zach and Bailey are so fun and we enjoy watching them grow up!  Holy smokes little Bailey is getting so big and Memphis so enjoys playing with her.  And of course Noah and Zach are pretty cool cousins!

Now I can't forget about Tony and Britney!  We are thankful that Tony is such a good uncle to the boys and that Britney loves our kids just as much!

My little brother!  I am so thankful that my brother and I get along so well.  Yes, we do have our moments, but that is just sibling love!!!  Seriously, not sure what I would do without him and his family.  Tori is like a sister to me.  I love Jaycee and Rigs to pieces and so happy that they are such great cousins to Noah and Memphis!  
Memphis counts down the days until he gets to see Riggins.  I think Memphis would move in with Rigs if given the opportunity!  ha!!!

November 11

Today I am beyond thankful for Randy's parents Craig and Peggy.  Without these two, it would be pretty hard to raise our boys.  We are very lucky that they live a few blocks away and it is a short walk or bike ride to their house.  These two are always quick to help us out by watching the boys so that we can go have dinner or so I can work (you know my other jobs, not teaching job!) or whatever it might be.  Thank you for always being there for us!  We love you both...

I seriously need to be taking more pictures!!!!  

November 9

Today I am grateful that the Presidential Election is over.  It will be an interesting four years with Donald Trump as President.  Lets hope for the best.

But more than me being thankful that the election is over, I am beyond thankful for my mom and dad.  These two have always been there for me.  We may not always see eye to eye (such as the election, but that is okay as we respectfully could disagree, which is exactly how they raised me).
Mom and Dad are amazing grandparents and I am so blessed that the boys love seeing them.  I wish we saw everyone more often but it is what it is!

Thank you mom and dad for being you.

I need more pictures of dad and the boys!

November 7

I was going to wait until later in the week to post being thankful for my co-workers but I am doing it today because on Saturday I met up with some of my work friends and we went to the Escape Chambers!  Oh my goodness it was so much fun.  We had a great time, I wish we would have escaped in time but I guess we picked the hardest room (the puzzle room) and only 20% of people get out.  I believe if we would have had another 10 minutes we might have gotten out!!!  Shucks next time!

I am honestly blessed to work with some great people that I get to call friends.  We had a great night out we enjoyed dinner and just catching up with each other.

November 3

I am so thankful for these two boys!  Noah and Memphis have both grown up so much in the last couple of years.  I love watching them get closer as brothers (even though they love to pick on each other, a lot) they still have a lot of love for each other too.
I am so thankful for these two Palmer boys!

November 1

November is finally here.  I love this time of year.  Thanksgiving and Christmas are two of my favorite holidays.  I love being with my family and this time of year it seems I get to see them often!!!  

Leading up to Thanksgiving I like to post what I am thankful for.  I am hoping to do this at least a couple of times a week if not each day (don't hold your breath on me posting each day)!  

However, today I am beyond thankful for Randy.  He is my rock, my soulmate, my best friend.  I am happy I am on this journey of life with him.  While we might not always agree on every issues we do agree that we will do what is best for our family.  Randy is an amazing dad to our boys.  They are so lucky to have a dad that loves them unconditionally!

I love you more...

Sunday October 30

In Des Moines we always trick or treat the night before Halloween.  The boys were excited.  Noah was a nerd and Memphis was Batman.  The boys had a great time collecting lots of candy!  Now to find the will to stay out of their candy...

Saturday October 29

My friend Jessica and I decided that we would take the boys to the fire station on Saturday morning to have pancakes for a fundraiser!  Pancakes were great and the boys were awesome!

Noah taught the boys how to dab!!!
