I'm on a boat!

Carter LOVES to use his imagination. It seems as if he is always pretending something. Today he sat on this blanket with Abby and said, "I'm pretending we are on a boat going to New York." He has been wanting to go to New York after watching the Mayc's Thanksgiving Day Parade.



Carter and Sonic on the boat. He still tells me he wished I would have named him Sonic, ha!

And I had to include this one of my loves watching TV in my bed, so sweet!

Thanksgiving 2011

We headed to Grandbury for Thanksgiving woth grandmother on Thanksgiving day. The weather was beautiful and we had a great time!

My view from the back seat. Yes, my life has come to me sitting in the back seat so that Abby can see me, ha!

Uncle Cody and Carter. Carter LOVES hanging out with his uncles!

Daddy's girl!

Playing with Carter's "guys". Just so you know, Carter's guys are always the good guys and they are always the strongest and therefore they always win!

Turkey dinner! Rolls are Carter's favorite!

Colt likes everything!

Austin digging in!

Abby's first Thanksgiving dinner.

Turkey cookie thing that Cody brought. His friend has a company that sells these.

No Thanksgiving is complete without some football!

Whoops Austin!

Cody

Mmmmm, leaves!


This year Abby is Thankful for: pacis, Carter, anything she can get in mouth, her bed, puffs and her big brother.

Carter is Thankful for: "my daddy, my toys, trucks, my friend Cade, my Spiderman mask, my baby sister, my Christmas tree and that's a lot of things!"

Love them!

Walking with Uncle Austin to the river. He tried to talk everyone to walk down there with him. He said it was like camping, ha!

Colt

Me and my boy.

The river is so low!


As we were walking back up from the river, Colt saw this line of ants. It went all the way down the hill to their mound. It was amazing how they were walking in a straight line and carrying objects bigger than them back down the hill. Amazing teamwork. Colt and Carter were amazed. It was so cool to stop and see the little things.

My family. This picture makes me happy. My mom took a bunch of slack for having to take it, but I am so glad we did!


Carter, Austin, Collins, Cody and Colt. Colt is the youngest, but the tallest

Meeting Evie!

My good friends, Angela and Michael came in town with their baby girl Evie for the holidays. I was so excited they were coming because I haven't gotten to meet Evie yet! We had an awesome time though I only got a few shots....and no pictures at our fun dinner at Gloria's!

Miss Abby practicing standing up!

Evie showing Abby her nose, ha!

Hi! Getting both girls to look was a challenge!

We got the girls' pictures with Santa. Evie fell asleep while we were waiting in line and Abby wasn't a fan of Santa, but I thought it made for a cute picture.....I will post the ones we bought soon!

Carter telling Santa he wants a Sonic toy.

Cheesy smile!

And a cookie as a reward for being good in line!
I love the Angela and I can pick up where we left off even if we don't see each other very often...that's a sign of true friendship!

Bke rider!

Carter has fianlly gotten the hang of riding his bike with training wheels. He got this bike on his second birthday when he was way too young for it. He then got a Spiderman "big wheel" for Christmas and never went back to the other bike. He is fianlly about too big for the Spiderman bike, so we gave the other bike a try and he LOVES it. Such fun and such good exercise.....now to get the training wheels off!



Little sister loves to watch her big brother!

Wordless Wednesday

Monkey bars!

Carter was so proud to show me how he could go across the monkey bars! He asked me to bring the video camera so I could record it!

Make a video - it's fun, easy and free!
