Friends Friends Friends

We watched some friend's kids while they went to a Christmas party. Here are some pics from that. Ava and Paige have very similar personalities. :) Sorry boys, no pics of you.

Bank Christmas Party (for kids)

Lunch Party at Nana's

For Paige's birthday we had a small lunch gathering with the Flynts at Nana's. Thanks to the Flynts for the 120 piece play food! Paybacks will come in multiples. :)

Paige Turns 2

For Paige's 2nd birthday, we took a trip to Silver Dollar City. We took cousin Carter and Nana and Brady stayed home with Mrs. Judy. Carter and Paige were too short to ride most of the rides so Dane and I had to sit in the back...let's just say it was a tight squeeze.

Below are the only pics we got...

Thanksgiving and Rashes!

We had a great week spending time with friends and family even though most of our family was sick. Our little family started Thanksgiving week with colds and crud. Brady had an ear infection and Dane and I had nasty colds. Paige seemed to be the only heathly one. We don't have any pictures from our time with family but hopefully we can get some from those crazy Texans as soon as they recover. On "Black Friday" Brady broke out with some crazy rash all over and stopped sleeping well and it turned into "Red Friday". We later confirmed that he was allergic to penicillin. He is still working on recovering and hopefully will be back to sleeping soon. Below are some pics of what our little guy was struggling with.

Putting up the Tree (more pics to come)

Brady Tackles Cereal

Found Them!

MOOOOO....Cows!

Dane took Paige out to see some calves a few weeks ago. The farm we used to rent on before we built our house has lots and lots of cows/calves. Paige is fascinated with cows right now so we thought we would give her an up close and personal look at them. Thanks Ronnie and Paula for letting her run through your fields.

I think this one must have stunk!

Trick or Treat; Well Mostly Trick

Halloween came and went for us like a bad dream. We started out the evening all cheerful in our Razorback cheerleading uniform, that Aunt Misty would have loved if she had gotten to see Paige, but ended up tearful and back at home within the hour. Paige had an emotional meltdown at the church's fall festival, so bad we had to come home. It's tough being small and not able to communicate well and understand adults! But the evening wasn't a total loss; Paige got to enjoy some doritos with dad. We look forward to next year! And for those of you that care, Brady went as Brady and never had a chance to even get out of his carseat. Poor guy; better luck next year!

Busy Busy Busy

2 Hayrides + Washington DC + Mickey Mouse Birthday Party + Quail Hunting in Texas + Fishing + Slumber Party = One Busy Family the Past 2 Weeks!

Hayride #2

We went to Drew's (in red below with his big brother Noah) Mickey Mouse birthday party. He turned 3 and we had a great time. Thanks Drew!

Paige is holding 5 suckers from the pinata and she has no idea that it is candy. She just thinks they are pretty. I know it is only time before she realizes I have been holding out on her. :)

Slumber Party

Ava and Paige telling me hi (Carter eating goldfish - are you seeing a trend). :)

All I have to say is lookout world when these 2 girls hit school together (they were born 1 day apart)! :)

Balloon fun!

Boys Boys Boys

Nana and I watched Carter and a friends little boy the same age as Brady while their parents went to high school football games. Carter could not get enough of his "boy" time!! He is going to need a lot of this come December!

Don't You Just Want to "Eat" Him?

Hayride and Fishing!

Our Sunday School class had a fall fellowship. Here are some pics of the kids fishing and going on a hayride with their dads. Paige loved fishing....well, she loved squeezing the fish and throwing them back in. Just like her dad!

Can't Forget Brady

Some recent pics of Brady...so glad we were able to catch his "lip" on camera.

Dad is a Great Cook!

Dane made some elk chili last week with some elk he brought home from Colorado last year. Paige loved it so much she had 2 bowls full!
