family game night

With the busy-ness of life, the blog has taken a bit of a hiatus.  What have I been up to? So much I can't even remember!  One thing I do remember, however... our first family game night!  A friendly (read super competitive) game of Cranium.

 

Guess who won?! The Parks! We won a trophy and bragging rights. We were SO excited, jumping up and down, you'd think we won the Olympics.

We are ultimate nerds and had so much fun. We sisters plan to make this a monthly ordeal; gives us a chance to hang out and be awesome at winning.

Anyone else do game nights?! Or is this ultimate dorky stuff only for nerds like us?

family lunch with the parks

Ever since we left Grace Fellowship Church, we don't get to see the Parks (my in-laws) very often. I know many don't get along with their in-laws, or don't feel comfortable around their in-laws, but I'm super blessed to have an amazing MIL! It kind of, sort of, helps that my mom and John's mom have been bff's for years. Growing up, the moms would hang out while John, his bro, me and my sisters would be forced to hang out. So annoying. Just kidding!

Two Sundays ago, the family got together for lunch! John was most excited about seeing our niece, Emma. John is obsessed with Emma. Seriously. Obsessed. He loves his niece like crazy! But who wouldn't love her?! She's adorable!

A family meal time turned into an Emma photo session!

First off, anyone love Spongebob? These kids sure do. HAHA!

Isn't she the cutest thing you ever did see? We can't wait to meet her lil bro or lil sister in February... it'll give John someone else to smother! :)
