Craft time with Mimi

We spent this past week in Houston at Mimi and Papa's house. Theo really took to Papa and they were little buddies all week. On the last day of our trip, Mimi did all sorts of special Christmas crafts with the boys. They made holiday visors and then Jack helped Mimi put together "Santa's house". It turned out just darling. Jack helped Mimi pull out all of her Christmas decorations and put them around the house. What fun everyone had! See you soon Mimi and Papa!!

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! We have so much to be thankful for this year. Loving family, health, great friendships, God's love......... an endless list.

Incredible pizza

We ventured out to a local "Chuck E Cheese-type place" today. Theo and Jack both played ski ball, one more successfully than the other. Jack and his daddy rode go-carts and had a fun time with Mimi. Mama, Theo and I had to cut out early. Nap time called.

Jack is on Santa's list



Check this out and even make your own! Too cute!

Baylor visit

Jen, Corinne, the boys and I met up with Lauren and her kids at Baylor today. I hadn't been there in 4 years and boy have things changed! We had 5 kids between us to keep up with and things got crazy at times, but overall, the kids were wonderful and had such fun together. We met up in the KD chapter room and chatted with a couple active members. Then we ate lunch on campus and hit the bookstores for some Baylor merchandise. All the kids managed to get some Baylor teddy bears out of us!! We walked across the entire campus and admired all of the new buildings. We tried to get some cute group photos, but that is easier said than done with 5 kids. Lauren's two kids are Aidan and Avery, Jen has Corinne, and well, you know the rest!!

Thanks for driving us Aunt Jen and we loved meeting up with you Lauren!!! Hopefully everyone will sleep well tonight (I know I will).

Family bowling night

Mimi took us to her local bowling alley for family night fun. Jack donned bowling shoes for the first time and looked mighty cute! We all took turns helping him propel his bowling ball down the lane......... and it was very reminiscent of Uncle Buck taking the kids bowling. One ball didn't make it past the halfway mark and several others barely made it down the lane. He had so much fun though and we'll have to try taking him bowling again back in Mandeville. Theo was confined to the stroller, as always, and was a good sport. Poor baby.

We're in Houston this week visiting with my family for Thanksgiving. We made it in safely last night. Dave's parents are going on a cruise for Thanksgiving and Jack asked if he could go with them. Um Jack, we all want to go with them!! :) Happy Thanksgiving everyone.
