Our Family


I was trying to get a nice picture of our family to put in our Christmas cards that I really need to get out. But out of about 30 pictures, none of them were great. This was the winner, so I will try again this weekend.


Jumping Bean

Jed and Jeannette let Macie borrow their bouncer until Hannah gets old enough to use it, and she LOVES it...most of the time. It makes me laugh to watch her jump around in it. Here are a couple pictures and a video of our little jumpin' bean. I know I am disgusting, but that is what I call her when she's in the bouncer:)
