Snowing in Naples!!

Thankful

We have countless things to be thankful for...here are a few

A beautiful 3 yr old who is working on being potty trained! (Don't ask BassPro how that's going!)
A beautiful god-daughter, Emily.

I thank God for these three everyday - even when they have me pulling my hair out!

Can you say - Budda...look at that double chin.

Burrrr

Uncle Bry was the only one brave enough to get in the pool with the kids. They went in numberous times but could only take 10-15min at a time.

Quack Quack

Justin and Tom went hunting over the holidays. They had more luck than years past and brought a couple ducks home. Elizabeth was really into them, Logan held it just long enough for a picture. He did eat it up though when we grilled it the following night!

Happy Turkey day!

Silence

Is golden in the car. The joy of being on the road at 5 am.

Sing a long

Passing time in the car.

Big boy.

You know it's duck season when you hear gun fire while getting the news paper.

Times-Picayune

Toy shopping

Today we took the kids to Toys R Us for Chirstmas ideas...never thought playing Santa would be so hard! Any way, I saw they are doing throw back Barbies...from the 50, 60's etc. I went around the corner and saw this! I remember having this exact one growing up. I LOVED Barbies and had lots of them over the years but this one defiantly triggered memories of years past. As for Christmas...we got a few ideas!

Proud Mama

Tonight we had a dinner at Elizabeth's school. It was a Thanksgiving dinner for all the families. Her spanish teacher came over and commented on what a beautiful family and how well behaved our kids were, sitting and eating. Yes, it was a small victory for the night. As Justin told me it was probably just because they didn't know all the other kids running laps around the tables...but whatever the reason mine were noticeably well behaved tonight! Way to go kids!

Sweetness!

Rain is a good thing!
