North Pole Breakfast 2014

 With Thanksgiving over, the boys knew it was only a matter of time before they woke up to find our elf back at our house.  Max (or Chippy as Carson likes to call him) showed up the next morning and brought his famous North Pole snowballs and chocolate milk for us to enjoy.  I'm pretty sure the boys were on a sugar rush for the rest of the day! :)

Happy Thanksgiving!

Our thankful turkey...

My boys love traditions.  I'm not sure if I will ever be able to serve them anything else on Thanksgiving morning. :)

We headed to the Cunningham's house for lunch. The boys loved seeing their cousins!

Post lunch football game was the perfect way to spend the afternoon.

School Happenings

Fall is always filled with lots of fun activities.  The boys have been busy this month at school.  Carson had 'Walk the Walk' at preschool which is a fundraiser each year that promotes a healthy lifestyle.  The kids did some warm up exercises and yoga to get ready for their big walk. :)

Then they celebrated with a rainbow snack of fruits and vegetables.

Connor's school held a literacy parade where each students dressed up like one of their favorite book characters.  Connor and his friend Kyle dressed up like the Kratt brothers from Wild Kratts.  Such a fun day!

Christmas Affair 2014

One of my favorite ways to start the holiday season is right here with these girls!  We have been doing this so long we lost count of how many years. :)

Happy 60th, Mimi!

Happy Birthday to you...

Oh Boy, Oh Boy, Oh Boy!

My friend, Kaimey, threw the sweetest shower for Clay and I.  It was such a fun afternoon getting to visit with friends and family while enjoying some fabulous food!  I am so grateful and blessed to have all these wonderful women in my life.

Soccer Star

Carson had his first taste of team sports this fall with soccer.  He and the rest of his Pirate team did an awesome job!
