Thanksgiving

This Thanksgiving was the first year in awhile that we did not have a soccer tournament! We decided to spend a nice quiet Thanksgiving at home. We started the morning with Joshua's yummy turkey cinnamon rolls.

This picture captures the family perfectly! Abby dancing, Matthew not wanting to be in the picture, he wanted to stand right in front of the camera, the big boys laughing away. I love this picture!!

Take 2!

Joshua helped cook our Thanksgiving meal!

The twins helped with the table decorations!

Grandma Patti and Mr Wayne visit

It was such a special time to have Grandma Patti and Mr Wayne come for a visit. They were able to spend special time out with each of the big boys. They were also able to go cheer Caleb on in three soccer games. While the boys were at school they had a lot of playtime with the twins. We even gave Grandma Patti a surprise birthday party.

Playtime with Friends

Abby and Matthew have the sweetest friends, can't wait to watch these 4 grow up together!

Abby's First Ballet Recital

What an exciting day and a first for the Bratager family, Abby's ballet recital. She was so excited to show us everything she has been learning the past couple of months. After the recital all the girls brought special little treats to share with each other. It was such a special day that ended with flowers from daddy.

Our ballerina!

I have a feeling Matthew will be watching Abby dance for awhile!
