November 16: Thanksgiving Feast

On Wednesday Sara had her little Thanksgiving "feast" at school. It was quite possibly the cutest thing ever. We missed it last year (when she was an Indian) because she was sick so we were excited to see what it was all about. Mick was still a little croupy and I held him the whole time. He must have learned the same songs in his class because he sang them to me in my ear :) It was a wonderful way to spend a morning!

So sweet! Made my heart happy!

November 15-16: Around

I haven't had many pictures from around the house since we have been battling different stomach bugs and colds since our trip to Blue Ridge. But here are some representative ones :)

This is pretty much how Peter spends every afternoon from 3-bedtime- poor kid!

Sara and Mick playing Chuggington. They play very well together now and are always coming up with some game:

November 13: Alexandria

On Sunday we went to Alexandria for Aunt Myrt's funeral. She really was an amazing woman and we will miss her. I can't wait to make her coconut cake :) Mike and the kids hung out at Maw-Maw's for a while. It sure looks like they enjoyed the weather :)

November 12: LSU vs. Western Kentucky

Amie and Paw-Paw treated us to the LSU homecoming game with the kids. And Uncle John watched Peter. Where would we be without our family? Thanks everyone! It was a great day :)

Amie and Paw-Paw picked us up and we walked around a little before the game. We went to a tailgate for Mike's college and then we watched the band walk down the hill. It was so much fun!

We saw Mike before he headed into the stadium:

Thanks so much Amie and Paw-Paw and Uncle John! I think we have another generation of Tiger fans- I have heard the First Down cheer several times around our house :)

And a funny story: We left after halftime (the kids loved watching the band and color guard) and Sara was really worried about why the rest of the people didn't leave and when they started to cheer I told her they were staying to practice cheering. Ha Ha :)

November 9: Pinkalicious

On Wednesday, Sara had her last Playmakers class. She really enjoyed the classes. It didn't hurt that they did Pinkalicious :)

Here are some videos and pictures:

November 4-6: Jackson's Birthday :)

On Friday we headed to Houston so we could help Jax celebrate his 3rd birthday. A VERY special thanks to Uncle John who drove us since Mike had drill (this also meant he listened to my crazy kids for too long...)

Here are the kids in Baba's "man cave"

When we went to the beach this summer, Baba had convinced the kids there was a shark in the pool. Apparently the shark followed them home and now resides in their back yard. The kids hunted for him:

Mick's new obsession is rocket ships. He really liked this (it really bothered me that the Earth was in the center.... )

Sara really really wants a pet and she was so happy to be able to play with Louie (Frank wasn't having it!)

Later on we checked out a new place to get our hair cut. Mick sat in this firetruck so he could watch Superman :)

I couldn't bring myself to cut Peter's hair. But he had to sit in Lighting McQueen:
