Ain't no party like a Cheney party . . .

HAPPY TURKEY DAY!!
I got to come home for Thanksgiving, and as cliche as it sounds, I am thankful. My whole family was here - Todd and Christina flew in from Switzerland with their new little one, to surprise us. It's crazy to see them take on their new roles as parents, but they do such a good job.




The little ones that were born in July and August are in their tubby smiling phase and let's face it, they love me. My favorite is when they snuggle with me. I got Tyler to snuggle up to me and even fall asleep. There are few feelings as satisfying as having a chubby little baby asleep on your chest.

This is one of me and Tyler, so sweet. Here is another picture of Tiffer and her little guy Porter. He just needed some Mama love.

A typical Cheney gathering usually involves at least one game night. So . . . we played Scum. That was fun, but what was even more fun was the little photo shoots that went on in between rounds. My grandpa Worsley was here with us, I love that in some of the pictures you can see him just laughing at us in the background. We're crazy, we embrace it.

Nellie and I were a team to begin with and we were rockin'. So to show just how rockin' we were, we sported the side ponies. This trend soon caught on with the other ladies in the room, so we HAD to take a picture . . .
THEN . . . the photo shoot really began. Have you ever heard the term, "Shake it like a poloroid picture"? Let me show you just what that might look like. . .









It then went on to the shaking/dazed looking/I just got punched in the face pictures . . .
