Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Turkey Day! We thought we would be all alone here in NC for Thanksgiving this year but Jason's mom and my brother Sam were both here. It was wonderful to have family to share the holiday with.

Because the odds of an adult having a nap in our home are about as good as Ed McMann knocking on the door with a jumbo sized check, we played outside after dinner. 5 out of 6 of us like to have pictures taken. All day long when I would try to take Noah's pic he told me, "Stop Mom!"

Super fun to have Sam here...

and Grandma

 I am not sure what these are..maybe reindeer? The girl's came home from preschool super proud though!

Halloween & Fall

Happy Halloween 2008!

Gracie saw this unicorn costume and fell in love with being a princess riding a unicorn. Sophie is, of course, Ariel. I had adorable costumes for the boys, Luke was a lion and Noah was a skunk. Turns out both boys totally freaked out and would not wear their costumes. Aunt Heidi to the rescue! She sent us these cute Thing 1 & 2 shirts earlier this year. Add some blue hair spray  - one bald head looks a little weird. Oh well. Kids had a blast!

 

The leaves are beautiful this fall!

                                                   

                             This stinker is figuring out how to climb up on anything he can find!

Here is my funny antidote for this post. My girls were playing on Saturday and I heard Sophie say to Grace, "What are you doing in this world?!!!" Made me laugh. She actually has said that before, but I could never remember exactly how she got the phrase wrong.
