Thanksgiving Weekend!!

Wow we had such a great weekend spending time with family and friends. We had Thanksgiving dinner at my sister Misty's. It was such a great time and Jason's family was all their too. They are great people and fun to be around. The kids had a great time playing football and basketball outside. Then on Friday Misty and I hit the sales at 4:45 a.m. I am sure it was not as early as some of you crazy bats went but there was not to many things that I couldn't live without this year and we got what we went for and that is all that matters!! Then we my aunt Nancy came up and all the gals went to the Novemberfest. We have been going to that for my whole entire life since my aunt Nina runs the show there. Then we all went out to eat at Fredrico's then back home to our house for some good old games of "NUTS" and Dominoes. Our family has not played the card game "NUTS" for a long time but is a family tradition card game. On Saturday Texie did her first dance performance for this year she did such an amazing job and is such a great dancer. We love going to watch her and hopes she keeps it up!! There is a wrap up of the weekend. I love this time of year and look forward to many more card and domino games and spending time with family and friends!!

Big Football Guy

Lately Tyker has been such a character that I don't even know what to do sometimes. He wants to wear his football shirt or his aggie basketball jersey with aggie shorts all the stinking time. He puts on taydems Build a Bear helmet and wears it around the house all day!! He always wants to play football or basketball whatever he can get his brother to play with him that day. We have taken him and Taydem to play basketball at the rec-center while texie is at dance. so now he is constantly wanting me to drop him off to play basketball with the big guys. Mom me have practice with the big guys come drop me off. He has such and imagination that my other kids never really had. We are also potty training, so far he is doing very well. We have gone 4 days with no accident. I am not getting my hopes up because kids seem to do really well at first and then not so well for a minute so we are keeping our fingers crossed. I can't wait till I don't have to buy diapers anymore let alone change any!!!

Halloween 2008

For Halloween this year Texie decided she wanted to be a Oompa Loompa on Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory move. I decided to get busy making the costume the best that I could. I think all in all it turned out pretty cute!!! Taydem and Tyker wanted to be skeletons. We went trick or treating at my moms house with the family and aunt Nancy. It is always exciting when aunt Nancy is around!!
