It's begingin to look alot like Christmas....






Hey Ya'll! Hope this finds all well... Well, we put up all our Christmas decorations this past Saturday. William had to work so the kids and I got it all done. They had alot of fun helping decorate. We had Christmas music playing and just got all excited about the Holidays. Even Landon, helped. He was the Christmas Tree box holder. he he he... He really enjoyed climbing up and down on that big box. So far he's left the tree alone. I assume it will be a battle but so far it has not been an issue. I bought him a little Santa hat, which does not fit his fat head, and sat him by the tree for a picture so that's the only time he's even touched it. I'm sure he will though. Anyways, we are all in the Christmas mood here. It will be here before I know it. I guess I should get busy buying gifts huh??? Love you all!!!!

Allen's 5th Birthday....





Allen celebrated his 5th Birthday on Thanksgiving Day this year. Although, I think he would have not rather shared that day. He of course, would have liked to have the day be all about him. But I think he had a great day inspite of the day. I thought it was quite neat to share that day with Thanksgiving and he probably will to when he's older if it happens to fall on that day again. He got a new bike, which it has been too cold and rainy for him to ride, and he got some hot wheel cars, socks and the bestest bat man suit you ever seen. I was helping him put it on and he said, "mom I think I'm just going to die. This is the coolest suit." He loves that suit. In fact I made him take it off last night so I could wash it. And of course, the first words out of his mouth this morning were, "is it clean mom?" He's a batman freakazoid. Anyways, We are so very Thankful for him on this very special day! Oh, and I added him eating a turkey leg. He insisted on eating the turkey leg for Thanksgiving dinner. He managed to eat every last bite of it too. I'm going to have to get a job just to feed this boy. And very soon I might add....

Snow....


Believe it or not we had snow here, in Texas on Thanksgiving. Could we be so lucky to have some on Christmas? Na, probably not, this is Texas. It will be a balmy 70-80 degrees. he he he....But it sure was nice to see even if it was a light dusting. Gotta love the beautiful snow.

Sweet Baby Bottoms....




Well, all babies have to do it at one time or another. Friday as I came around the corner this was the scene I came upon. But the thing of it was he acted like it was my fault and he was mighty put out about the whole thing. He just kept holding it up in the air like he was saying, "do you see this lady? It's just soaked! I'm mean what's a boy got to do to get a diaper chang around here?" It was quite cute, I must say. I will admit he was pretty wet and he did need it changed. He just thought I needed a little help. I certainly wasn't moving near fast enough for him.

More from this weekend...




Here's a few more pictures from this weekend at Fossil Rim. My brother came up and he went with us. So there is one of him and the kids. Of course, the boys have to act like they have no brains. Then my brother took a good pictures of all of us. It actually turned out really well, with the exception of Williams mouth being wide open. Won't tell ya what that was all about. Will leave that to your imagination. Anyways, I best get off here. There's things to be done, diapers to be changed, and kids to be chasin...

Okay, I know this picture is awful but when I put it on here I thought it was a little better. But now I can't seem to remove it. It was one of those I took myself, ya know how those are. But it looked so much better when it was smaller. So I guess we're just stuck looking at it. Sorry!

Lauren's 9th Birthday...

She wanted to go back to Fossil Rim so that's were we took her. She asked for a new bike so that's what she got. She had a great birthday! :)

Cutie Patootii....



Landon, helping daddy drive, aren't they cute? And he really enjoys looking at all the animals... as you can see. Or maybe he just like hanging out the window. I'm not sure which, either way he has a great time.

Just a few more...



Here's all of them and this one just needed me to give it a kiss... he he he...

Oh how I love the Giraffes...






Aren't they just the most Beautiful, Magnificent animals? God was having an exceptionally good day when he made the Giraffes. I just love them. They are so Spectacular!!! I just love every detail about them. From the intricate patch work, long slender bodies, and even those very long tongues. Just Wonderful...We went back to Fossil Rim today and we got to feed one. One of the pictures is of him/her eating out of my hand. I loveeeedddd it... It was so sweet. We got to spend a good amount of time with them today. Then I was able to just get some really great shots. Check out the one with it's tongue hanging out. Is that great or what? God really out did himself. I mean really, think about this, just look at the ostrich (dooky bird, to my kids) and then look at the Giraffes or zebras. Now really, I think God was having a really bad day when he created those darn birds. The poor things... But thankfully he had more good days than bad, huh? Anyways, I just couldn't help sharing them. I just love them...

My very Own Pumpkin Patch.....





He he he.... I have my very own pumpkin patch. This year instead of doing costumes for everyone, which gets very expensive x5, we did pumpkin shirts. They weren't real thrilled with me about it but I told them when they all got a job then they could get their own. Anyways, I tried to find all matching ones but it was impossible so we got close enough. The boys did really enjoy having matching shirts. They did think that was cool. But we even sprayed their hair orange. So I wasn't the most horrible mother ever. I even sprayed little Landon. He really did look like a pumpkin head. he he he... I took them to the church's fall festival and they had a great time and got too much candy of course. But i guess that's the fun of it. Just wanted to share my little pumpkins with ya.... Have a great weekend...
