Cousins and Thanksgiving 2012

This family keeps getting better and better. Last weekend we celebrated Analeigh's 3rd birthday and had so much fun. This little group of kiddos couldn't be cuter.

And a few days later, we all got together again for Thanksgiving at Mimi's house. So many blessings!

To top it off, my dear Jeff even ran the Turkey Trot 10K with me-- we finished in 55 minutes. It was his first 10K-- now that's love :)

Happy Thanksgiving!

Halloween 2012- The Party Continues!

Our Halloween party was so fun this year. We made some new Halloween decor and tried out a few new recipes.

 Both the girls were excited to have their friends over for trick-or-treating.

And Jeff was willing to dress-up! (Puss in Boots and Kitty Softpaws)

There was lots of indecision and debate about what costumes to wear, but the girls finally decided on "Tinker Bell" and "Captain America's Daughter" .

Other 'characters' from our party included:

Mario and Princess Peach

A Funky Chicken

Little Red Riding Hood and the Big Bad Wolf

Their Momma- a Black Kitty 

The Big Bad Wolf in 'full costume' 

Captain America and Spider Man


Grandma and Grandpa came by with some great treats too!

We saw lots of friends and neighbors. This year Maisy was really scared of 'spooky masks' and witches etc. So we stayed on our street and in the nearby cul-de-sac.

And on a side-note, I have complete 'hair envy' of my three year old. Look at Maisy's bun-- that is all her own hair!

Happy Halloween!
