Happy Thanksgiving 2015!
11/27/15
 Nona got us a cool table cloth to color on and decorate our table for the day!  
I'm cutting a few squares and laminating them for years to come!  
 Dinner is READY!!  Pierce was so ready!  Reid still, bless his heart, didn't feel well!  
 Cranberry Sauce is his fave!!!
 Turkey LEG!!!
Oh and Pierce called the Deviled Eggs - "Rotten Eggs"
Quote:  "Momma, can I try one of those rotten eggs?"  ha!
He finally ate a cookie!  :) 
As we ate, we all talked about what we were thankful for! 
Pierce said "I am so thankful for my FAMILY!"  
Reid agreed!  
I am so thankful for our family, our health, our jobs and our home!  
We are so very lucky!! and so very blessed!!
Happy Thanksgiving TO ALL!!!

Santa Visit 2015!!

11/25/15
We did a quick visit to Santa at Bass Pro!
The boys were SO excited!!!


So, we are almost to Santa and Mr. Reid has to use the restroom.  The seriousness of his voice made me realize we had to hit the trail quick!  So, we jump out of line and think "we can make it back!" buuuuuuuuuuut, we didn't.  So, Pierce got to talk to Santa alone and so did Reid!  Even though I missed Pierce talking to him, I really enjoyed getting to see Reid get to talk to him BY HIMSELF for the first time ever!  That was a special moment!  I will admit, I was very upset I missed Pierce and still am, but its ok!  I got to experience something DIFFERENT this year!  :)  And Santa was a sweetheart!  and I think the pictures turned out PERFECT!  :)  

Sickly!

 Mr. Reid has been under the weather for SEVERAL days!
one night he DID ask for Corn on The Cob!  
Hoping my little fella gets back to normal soon!  :)

Gum Chewin'

So, today (11/14/15), Reid finally got the hang of chewing gum!  The last few times I had tried it with him, he would swallow it IMMEDIATELY! (and this is me giving him a bite of a piece, not a whole piece!)  
Today, he chewed.... ha!  :)  

Last Soccer Game!


11/14/15

Today was Pierce's last soccer game!  I was a little bit sad because he has really had a good time and has really enjoyed it, but to be honest, not having to do Soccer 2 nights a week will be a great break!  :)  Ugly for me to say, I know!  Today I finally brought my big camera and snapped some pics of all the kiddos!  
Thank you Coach Matt and Coach Brett for being so good to us!!

:)  Hopefully we will see you in the Spring!!
So, a side story, Coach Matt is originally from Ruleville!  (We found this out several practices/games ago)!  It was hilarious!  He saw me the next time after discovering that we had that in common and he said "I didn't know we were practically related!"  :) His Mom and Daddy's first cousin have taught together FOR YEARS. Matt and my cousin Robert are very close!  Matt and my other cousin Traci went to high school together!  SMALL WORLD.  I just love stories like this..... :)    
 Aubrey, Brody, Wyatt and Addison!
and doesn't Aubrey look adorable in her scarf!?  LOVE IT!  
 Cooper and Pierce goofing off.... or should I say, Pierce goofing off! 
 Wyatt!
 Cooper!

 P in full run!  :)  
 Jackson!
Margot!
 The line up to slap hands and say "GOOD GAME!" to the other team!  :)  
 After he received his Trophy!!
:)
All day today he has said "I canNOT believe I got a trophy, Momma! I just can't believe it!"  

Drive IN!!!

11/13/15
Friday night we decided at the last minute to go to our local Drive-In!  The boys had a BALL!  as you can tell, they were beside themselves!  We all piled in the back of my truck and watched the new Peanuts Movie! :)   We got their baths before and popped popcorn, brought blankets and snuggled and had SO MUCH FUN!  :)   

:)

on 11/13/15, I was asked as part of my job to go to a Home Health visit in a patients home.  It was in the country!  I LOVED driving to find the gentleman's home!  and I stumbled upon this treasure!  Edmond Orgill Park.  
It is 62 acres of lakes, golf course, playgrounds and more!  
We will be visiting it soon!
