Gingerbread House

We made a gingerbread house today. The boys (and daddy) had a lot of fun. I think the boys ate more candy than actually went on the house.

Tattoo???

No, just Crayola marker! It took Will less than 5 minutes to find a pack of markers and ever so quietly color his entire arm before I found out (front and back). Then he had to tell me "Well, me and Sam sometimes get carried away." I love how Sam got dragged into it. : )

School Christmas Parties

Both boys had fun Christmas parties at school. Mom & Dad both got to go to Sam's party and Dad went to Will's party. Will's class entertained the parents with songs... Jingle Bells and We Wish You a Merry Christmas.

Here is a new look that Sam likes to give us sometime. It's usually when he's up to no good...

Christmas Fun!

We have been busy the last few days getting ready for Christmas. Here are a few photos of all the fun.

Gotta love a mouthful of whipped cream...
We went to ride The Pink Pig at Macy's...

The boys got snow globes that they love. They are plastic and so far indestructible. They love playing the music and running around the house with them.

Fun Outside

The boys had a great time playing in the leaves in the backyard. It has been chilly today so we really had to bundle up.

Tree Lighting

We went to the Vinings tree lighting this weekend. We enjoyed dinner with Will & Sam's friend's, Jett & Mac. The boys went on a fun "choo-choo" ride with Daddy around Vinings Village.

Christmas Tree

We went this weekend to pick out the perfect Christmas tree. The boys had a great time running around and choosing a tree. I think they liked the playground and funnel cake even better!

Raindrops...

keep falling on my head!

Thanksgiving Weekend!

We had a wonderful Thanksgiving weekend at the beach. We enjoyed great weather, family, and yummy food (plus a GT win). : ) For some reason I didn't take many photos this weekend...here are a few.

Hey, Mr. Turkey Leg!
Mommy and her little turkeys.

I took this right before we left town. I was loading the car and the boys got fishing poles and were pretend fishing at the end of the driveway (the road is the water). What cute boys!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Last week we had a Thanksgiving Lunch at Will & Sam's school. Will's class did a Thanksgiving program for us that included the Turkey Tango, funny Turkey songs, and a nice prayer. Will did a great job singing and dancing - he was really into it! The pictures show you how proud he was.

Here is Will doing the Turkey Tango.

So proud!

Check me out!

Sam watching the show and chillin' out!

Sam at home - such a big boy!

Off to School on a Cold Morning...

We actually had to wear sweaters today.... brrrrrrrrrrrrrr!

Just wanted you all to know that I still love black beans.

Fall Leaves

We had a fun day outside raking leaves. The boys really liked to help rake, hide toys in the leaf pile, run through the pile, and then put the leaves in big bags. It was a chilly day here so we had to bundle up!

Will running really fast on the "leaf tracks" we made.

What a big helper... putting leaves in bags.

I have to incorporate ball into this project somehow...

Sam hid a gourd in the leaf pile and Will found it.

Sam just hanging out...

Fall Days

Fun in the fall leaves...

Hey Will, I can help you with that zipper!

Mr. Blue Eyes

The boys love bath time.

My Little Bulldog!

We had such a fun day on the beach with all the crazy UGA fans!

Happy Halloween!

We had a great time trick-or-treating at the beach. Here are some photos of my little indian and my little cowboy!

The boys with crazy grandparents (witch, Rudolph, and used car salesman)...

Target practice with Uncle B. Will had so much fun shooting his cowboy guns!

This is lollipop number 15 (or 16) of the night.

Beautiful family photo... yes, Sam wasn't very happy here, but I had to show Rich's fancy costume!
