Give Me Kisses!

So, I couldn't resist posting this. While playing with the camera, I got Hannah to give me a kiss just in time for the picture to take! Those kisses make the challenges all worth it!

Holidays

Hello! I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving! We had a delicious meal here at our house with Dad and Louise, a couple from their ward, and Sean and his friend, Rob, dropped by later. Dave and Rosa came by in the evening to take Robbie with their other nephews, the Peters' boys, for a sleepover at their place. I think they all had a good time. I haven't had a chance to ask Dave if they got any sleep that night.
Now we are looking forward to all the Christmas festivities. We have Christmas music playing and I am planning what gifts we will be giving along with what yummy holiday food we will be making this year. Coconut bread is a given, of course. Dan, you'll have to stop by and grab a slice! :)

Goldfish and more goldfish

So... Hannah and I went shopping today. We bought a box of those colored goldfish crackers at the store. On the way home, I opened the box to give some to Hannah, since it was close to snack time. However, when I slowed down at a traffic signal, the bok tipped over, spilling the goldfish all over the floor in front of the passenger seat. I will leave three choices, and you can finish the story as you choose. I...

_ Threw away the goldfish

_ Let the neighbor's dog eat the goldfish

_ Ate the goldfish myself

_ Put the goldfish back in the box

I'll let you know if anyone gets the correct answer.

Teeth and more teeth...

Okay, so about a month ago, Hannah had two teeth. She started getting really clingy and fussy a lot. Well, it turns out she was getting teeth! As far as I know, there are seven teeth, but there could be more that she is not allowing me to see. For those who have yet to experience their child going through a teething stage, there is light at the end of the cranky tunnel!

Evefything was cool today.

I'm just going to start sharing stories about Jared on here. You can all feel free to do the same with your children, spouses, selves, etc. Jared learned how to say "cool" today in an excited, high-pitched voice. So, everything I showed him today he would say "Cool!" I thought it was cute. He loves his shoes too. So today, he brought me his shoes and I showed him that our shoes were the same, and he looked at them after saying "shoes, shoes" and cried out "cool!" He's a fun kid.

There they are again.. all three... in the same order

Okay, I am sorry, but I couldn't resist! I had a pic of the same three, sitting in the same order from my own wedding. And look who still isn't happy about the wedding??? Anyway, hope this makes you all laugh as much as it made me laugh! Maybe those three have formed a little clique that we don't know about. Hugs to all!!!

Okay, I think I figured out how to do this crazy stuff. Well, since Danny and I are the only ones that know all of you, I'll just say hello. This is the most recent picture we have of the whole family, taken in August. Jared looks a little overwhelmed, but it was a hot day. But, I'm glad that you guys have joined. We need to get the McMullin side going!

Presenting... Emma

Here... to help Chris out, I'll post one of the more recent pics from his family-- his daughter, Emma is in the middle. To the left is Jana and the right is Becca. They were having a blast at Ade & Ray's wedding! He he!

Welcome Arave Gang

Welcome! I assume you are from the McMullin side? So... tell us about yourselves.

Welcome Sadie!

Yay!!! Sadie is on!!! Welcome Sadie! Here is a pic of Sadie & her family, so you all know who she is. :)

Pebbles & Bam Bam

So... Pebbles and Bam Bam? Aren't they the cutest? We think so. Bam Bam's costume was made by the famous "Mom" McMullin. She is quite talented! Pebbles costume was made by myself and Karen. The funny thing was... after Karen and I measured Hannah's width and made the costume, we realized we hadn't accounted for her circumference! Luckily, she's pretty skinny, so it still fit pretty well. We better take lessons from "The master McMullin" (yes, Connie- that's you). Alright. Hugs to all!

Welcome Welcome

I would like to thank Chris for suggesting this. I hope everyone will enjoy it. I'm inviting both Rains and McMullin siblings and parents to join the same blog because both sides have expressed to me their desire that we could all get together and keep in touch. Hopefully, we can all figure out how to use it and how to post pictures for each other to see. So, visit often and hopefully we can all enjoy keeping in touch and sharing pictures. Thanks.
