Thanksgiving in AL

We had a wonderful time visiting family in Montgomery for Thanksgiving. My sister's sister-in-law always hosts and she makes us feel so welcomed. They live in the country with lots of land and my brother in law's parents live behind them. It is a little boy's dream~fully stocked pond, golf cart, 4-wheelers, horses and dogs. We had a fabulous meal and then set out to go fishing. Len caught 7 or 8 fish and the boys had a blast. I left Missy's house dreaming of living in the country with land for my boys to run free. We stayed very busy the whole time we were there. I felt like we were on the go the whole time. We missed my brother (who missed his flight on Thanksgiving morning), and we weren't ready to go home when the time came. We stayed in a hotel near my parents home and Walker loved his hotel. The boys got to go swimming with their cousins one night and I think Will could have swam all night long. Here are some pics from our Thanksgiving.

Thanksgiving Feast

Here are a few pictures from our Thanksgiving Feast at our preschool. It's only for the 3's, 4's and 5's so it was nice to get some one on one time with Will from mommy and daddy.

Will and sweet Maisy.

Will and his buddies from class. I wish we would have gotten Carter in the pictures. Hutson, Miles and Will.

Me and my BIG baby! He's not a baby anymore, but he will always be my baby :( Love this boy so much. He is really growing into such a sweet hearted boy and has matured so much this year. He is getting easier and easier and is such a joy to be around. I can't believe he sat on my lap in front of his friends for this picture.

And no post would be complete without my little turkey and he is indeed a little turkey! ;)

Catch Up-Papa, SueSue & AW's Visit

A few weeks ago, my mom and dad came to visit. I convinced my sister to let Ann Welch tag along. The boys were thrilled and could.not.wait. for her to get here. We had a great weekend. They were able to stay until Monday, which was nice because they usually have to rush home after church on Sundays. We had a very low-key weekend and we hardly even noticed the kids were even there. They played so hard. They built forts and houses and played mommy & daddy and just generally enjoyed each other so much. Walker thinks Ann Welch exists just for him and just adores her. He is finally old enough to hang/hold his own with the big kids. We went to Will's soccer game on Saturday morning and then my mom and I took the kids to the pumpkin patch, while dad and Len stayed home to watch football. I know they were just dying to brave the pumpkin patch with us. ha! We didn't make them go and they were happy to say the least. It was SO crowded and we only stayed about an hour. We came home and watched football, took naps and just enjoyed being lazy. We went to church on Sunday and then had a little early birthday party for AW. She turned 5 on November 2nd and we never get to see her on her birthday. I made yummy pink/glitter, strawberry cupcakes which was so fun for me because I never get to do anything pink. Her only request was some animal/rubberband bracelets so at $1.99 she was a happy girl. She loved blowing out her candles and we had so much fun. Ann Welch introduced us to Club Penguin awhile back and it is addictive. Even Len and I like to play it. It is a fun online game on the Disney website. So willadnash and purple-ela (their screen names) were taking over our computers and loved playing side by side. Ann Welch taught Will all of the secrets of Club Penguin. She is just like an adult in a tiny petite little body. It was a great weekend!
