A day spent....hanging out...

We enjoyed a wonderful day with our great friends Sheridan & Erin, in the town of DuBois (where Matt grew up)!

We all took turns trying out one of their christmas gifts...

Hang up inversion table 

Ian was a little skeptical about it until his younger brother gave it a try!

Sheridans parents came over to join us for dinner and to exchange gifts!

His "new" favorite gift of the year!

We are so blessed to have great friends!  The boys love spending the day at their house...they love chasing their dogs and cats, climbing the stairs, eating cookies, and this time they got to watch TV all by themselves in one of the bedrooms up stairs (they thought this was SO COOL)! 

Here Levi is showing the cat how to play his game!

Christmas Day

Levi 3, Tyler 3, Ian 4 , Isabella 4, Cohen 1 , Paige 2!

One of the best gifts this year, was a picture frame that announce  - 

my brother Daniel and his wife Nikki are having another baby (due Aug 3rd)!

Christmas Eve...and..Steelers Game!

On our drive up to PA...Matt got a call from his best friend Sheridan who asked him if we wanted to go to the Steelers game Christmas Eve day.   Long story short - Sheridan is a Lions fan...but one of his friends had four tickets that he was not going to use so he gave them to Sheridan.  Sheridan's wife is a Steelers fan - her and her brother were going to go to the game and wanted to know if Matt and I wanted to go to the game with them. After we talked, we decided that Matt should go and talk Sheridan in to going with him (Which he DID!),  since I wanted to stay at my parents house and help my mom with the Christmas Eve dinner preparations! If it was any other day..I would have went with him!   

Talk about an AWESOME Christmas gift!
 and...he made it back for ALL of the Christmas Eve Celebrations!

Dinner, opening stocking presents and best of all spending time with family and friends!

Miller Family Christmas

Last night, we started our Christmas celebration with our little family and we continued tonight with Matt's side of the family.  His sister (Melanie) and her family came up for Atlanta, GA and we all gathered at Matt's parents house for dinner and presents!

"Silly" family picture!

CHRISTMAS 2011

This evening we celebrated our family Christmas. 

We started with Matt reading from the bible Luke 2:1-20 and then we opened presents.  After every gift...the boys kept saying..."this is the BEST CHRISTMAS EVER!"
