This kid LOVES his family!

Reed is obsessed with his extended family! Yeah, he loves us too and is such a touchy, snuggly little boy, but nothing beats time with a grandparent or cousin!



Fun with Grandma


Watching cousins play video games...


He copied what they did.


Reed would try to get as close as possible to them...luckily, Mckay is a really great cousin and didn't complain.


Random hug for Rhettsky. We tried to catch Reed putting his arm around Rhett's waist and laying on his shoulder during the game, but we weren't quick enough.


Playing with "goofy Grandpa." Reed thinks my dad is hilarious! He followed my dad everywhere for 8 hours straight on Thanksgiving. Seriously, I tried to play the same games/toys with him and Reed would just look at me and yell, "Grandpa!"


Grandpa taught the grandkids the fun that can be had with tape balls. Apparently all the weird stuff my dad enjoys and says is perfect for entertaining little kids! As long as Reed doesn't learn any swears from him, I will consider it a success.


Watching a Christmas movie and snuggling with Grandpa.

Harry Potter Party

In celebration of the 7th Harry Potter movie coming out, we threw a small party. Only one among us had seen the movie, but we were all Potter fans. We consumed a whole lot of Honeyduke-like treats and tried to stump each other on Potter trivia. We even sorted ourselves into houses--and a lot of people were mistaken on what they previously thought was their House. Yes, we are dorks but very cool ones.


Honeyduke treats


Mike and Bruce with their "Deathly Hallows" cake. Yes, they MADE it!


A close-up of the masterpiece: the cloak, snitch, and Elder wand. So freaking cool!


And best of all, Harry and Draco dualing!
