Where did November go?

Wow... I can't believe I only did one blog post in November!  Where did it go?  We had a fun trip to Colorado with lots of great photos, but I must find them and put them on my laptop so I can share them!  Here's a couple random pictures of our Christmas tree.  Anna had fun helping me decorate and Luke continues to have fun helping un-decorate. :)

Random November Stuff

I realized I haven't taken many pictures in November, but had a few on my phone... so these are mostly cell phone pictures!

Here's Anna showing off a gingerbread cookie she got as a treat at the mall.  We watched a little ice skating while she ate it.

Luke feeding his bear a bottle.

Anna helped me make these pilgrim hat cookies for our playgroup Thanksgiving party tomorrow.

 And someone ate one!!

Here's Luke helping take down the Halloween balloons that were on the ceiling fan. :)



And here we are at Lowe's picking out some paint for Anna's new room.  We will be switching around several rooms and it will be a lengthy process.  First Anna will move to the larger bedroom upstairs, then Luke will move upstairs to Anna's old bedroom, then the guestroom will move downstairs to the old nursery!



Here's a group picture of Anna's Ladybug soccer team!

These are some felt turkey finger puppets I made to give to our playgroup friends.



Happy Halloween!

Our day started with a playgroup party at our house!  Here's the candy corn bean bag toss I made.

Spooky pumpkin bowling!

My cute Jane & Elroy Jetson!

Group shot after a few had left.

This evening we went to our church's fall festival.  They had a great spot for a photo!  Meet Elroy, George, Jane & Judy Jetson!

A Day at the Dallas Zoo

Wednesday, we went to the zoo with our friends, since it was a lovely day!  Here's Anna and the elephants.

 Fender, Luke & Anna feeding the giraffe.

 Parker, Fender, Anna & Luke watching the giraffes.

Luke had SO MUCH fun splashing through the stream in the children's area!!  Both kids had to ride home almost naked cause we had no extra clothes, but it was worth it for them!



Scarlett's Princess Party

Anna had fun at her friend Scarlett's princess party!!

Soccer, Etc.

Anna had a good game last Saturday.  Luke really wanted to play.  This was during the pactice before the game...

 Cheering for her team!

 Go Anna, Go!

Pep talk!

This is just a cute one of Luke at the park.

And here's Luke modeling the teeny tie I used for pictures on my nephew. :)

Baby Jeremiah!!

Here are a few pictures I took of my sweet nephew, Jeremiah!  He was born 10-10-11 and was about 5 days old in these.

Texas State Fair 2011!

We made our annual trip to the Texas State Fair.  Here's a pic with Big Tex!

We had fun at the petting zoo.  Luke would much rather look than touch, but he liked watching the animals!

Corny Dog!

Here's one of our favorites... the Little Hands on the Farm.  It's free and you even earn a treat at the end.

Here we are at the farm 2009...

And here's a 2010 and 2011 comparison.

Here's Luke's dollar he earned for working at the farm. 

Anna chose the planes as one of her rides.

Luke got to ride the motorcycles.

Anna wanted to ride the ferris wheel.  She loved it even though her cheese face looks a little scared.

Luke got to ride the four wheelers.

Anna chose the elephants as her last ride before we headed home.  We had a fun day!
