Thanksgiving 2009


This year we went to Grandma and Paw Paw's house on Thanksgiving day. Two of Grandma's sisters were there with their families and also Great-Grandma Gibson. It was so nice to get together with them all. Of course, Eli and Jayce got a lot of attention being the only 2 children there.

On Friday we headed to Grandpa and Grandma Joey's house to celebrate Thanksgiving with them. Keli & Pablo and the cousins were all there, too. Eli had a great time playing with his cousins. The boys spent most of their time in the basement playing with all the legos. It was fun getting Santiago and Jayce together for the first time, too.


Thanks to all the grandparents for having us at their homes to celebrate this year! Love you all!

A New Tradition

This Thanksgiving we started a new tradition.....Eli and I made Rice Krispie Treats! Eli helped Mommy by measuring the marshmallows. As you can see from the picture, he was eating the marshmallows more then he was actually helping. The treats turned out yummy and it was a great family evening! Happy Thanksgiving to all!

The Elkhart Truth


Scott was in the Elkhart Truth last week! He was in a coffee shop in Goshen, The Electric Brew, waiting for a friend for lunch when they took his picture. And, of course, he was on his phone!

Baby Jayce Allen Coryn was born on November 6th at 2:00pm. He was 7 lbs. 12 oz. and 19 in. long. He has been such a good baby! We are so very blessed with our two beautiful sons!

Daddy's Birthday at Logan's (Twice)

November 4th was Scott's birthday. We wanted to celebrate beforehand in case the baby came early. Last Monday night we met Grandpa & Grandma Joey, Aunt Keli and Uncle Pablo, and all of the cousins at Logan's Steakhouse. We love that place....very kid friendly, reasonable prices, great food and peanuts!!! It was a fun evening with the family!


Then, Wednesday night we celebrated Scott's birthday with Paw Paw, Grandma, Uncle Shawn & Uncle Casey at Logan's again! Eli was in heaven getting to go there twice in one week!



Happy Birthday, Daddy! We love you!

Halloween 2009

Halloween was such fun this year! Eli was going to dress as Mickey Mouse, but the weather was so cold and the Mickey outfit was so thin, so luckily Eli was able to borrow his friend Drew's monkey Halloween costume. He looked so cute & he loved the banana that was hanging out of the pocket. Thank you Krauses for your help!

This year Eli trick-or-treated with his buddy, Cole. Cole was dressed as a UPS man....adorable! He had a UPS box to collect his candy.

We bundled the boys up in a blanket and walked them around in a wagon. The weather was chilly, but the boys had a blast running up to houses and getting candy.

After trick-or-treating, Eli and I headed to Grandpa and Grandma Joey's house. Eli enjoyed showing off his costume. And he loved getting a little snack there, too.

We returned home to have Grandma here. Eli was excited to eat and get to play with her while Scott and I watched the ND game. It was definitely a fun filled night!

Birthday Boy & Best Buy

Friday was Uncle Casey's 27th birthday! We headed that evening to one of his favorite places to eat, Famous Dave's. Of course, we had to tell them it was his birthday....even though he hates being embarrassed....but it was fun to watch! Happy Birthday, Uncle Casey!

After dinner we headed to Best Buy. (Wonder who HAD to go there?....Daddy!) While Daddy looked around at TVs, Eli had fun playing Rock Band. He actually does pretty well holding a beat with the drums, but I think his favorite was playing the guitar. Maybe I'll have to sign him up for lessons soon.
