Anna's Dance Pictures

Anna has her first Christmas Dance Recital next Saturday. She is part of the "Little Fairies" class. We could hardly recognize her in the group picture with her hair in a bun (a first) and make-up (another first). FYI - she is the tall one in the back. The dance company will not allow pictures or videos at the recital. So, this may be all we have to show for it. We fully expect Anna to stand on stage during her performance with her hands in her mouth. So, we'll see. But she sure is cute!!

Thanksgiving weekend

This blog update is dedicated to Mamaw Shirley. She's been asking for some new pictures.

Here are some pictures from our Thanksgiving at Nana's house.

All the cousins were there and we had lots of fun.

OK so these pictures are completely out of order. For some reason I cannot get them to move.

Here is my 1st grade class' Gingerbread House we did for Fantasy of Trees.

So Much Fall Fun... So Little Time!

It's been a while. The reason is... we have NO HOME COMPUTER!! Can you imagine?!? Our home computer got a terrible virus and eventually died. We both have access to internet from work. I guess we will be buying a laptop for Christmas.

It seems there are so many 'Halloween' opportunities for kids these days. What happened to just trick or treating to your neighbor's house and dressing up in a garbage bag or plastic mask. Remember when we put on anything in the house and called ourselves "hobos" (or was that just my family?)

We had fun at the Boo at the Zoo with the Hees family last week.
