Family Time

Sibling dinner, #4!  :)  It was my turn to plan, so a night on Main Street in St. Charles was my choice.  We had a great time!  We invited my sweet SIL along this evening, because we girls had planned a little surprise for her, and wanted to give it to her that night.

First... I'll apologize for the iphotos.  I thought I'd planned so well! Well, I got out my camera to take pics.... and realized I'd forgotten to put SD card in it.  Oh, POO!  You know what they say... the best camera is the one you have on you, so I snapped away anyway!!!

Our nachos!


And the biggest onion rings I think I've EVER seen!


My burger... SO YUMMY!  I ate like this ALL weekend.  We'll be doing some make-up for it this week, I assure you!  YIKES!  Hahaa!
After dinner, my brother and sister walked down the street to bring back some of these awesome cookies.  So good!

The big surprise!  :)

My sweet sister in law has had a big year.  We thought it would be a good time to give her something special... something to remind her how important she is to our family, and how much we love her!  So, we girls got a set of matching "sisters" rings, custom made just for us.  :)

So fun, right?

She loved them. 

...and did her best not to cry.  :)

My handsome brothers:

Like my cute hat?  :)

Me and my little bro!

LOVE this pic of Caleb and Holly.

After dinner, we decided to walk around Main Street.  The lights are so pretty!...
My brother and his girl.  :)

My silly, little sister.  She's so stinkin' adorable.

I SOOO wish I'd had my good camera with me!... oh, wait, I DID!  :(



Creepy!

Speaking of creepy...











Ah, yes, fun was had by all... well, it was by ME, anyway!  Hahaa!!!  I planned it pretty well, if I do say so myself!  It was a nice evening... As usual, lots of laughing.  And that's my favorite part about being a part of such a big family.
