Thanksgiving 2015

Thanksgiving was a little different this year.  We had 2 family members missing and the absence was noticed.

We went to Owen's parents this year sand Martha's family came over too. Nathan and the boys were also in town. 

I love watching the cousins play. They had a fishing tournament but it was a warm day that the fish were not around. Andrew and Sam still had fun pretending to fish.

Picnic dinner

The strangest thing happened to us before thanksgiving. A Realtor called Owen because he had a client who wanted to buy our house. WHAT??? But being two people who will entertain anything that brings in extra money we entertained the idea. If they were serious buyers we would let them look at our house. Luckily for us they weren't serious so we didn't sell it. But the afternoon they came to look at it, I took Ralphie with me to get the boys and we went to the neighborhood park for a picnic.

Christmas card pictures

I've taken our Christmas card pictures for a few years now. It is a hard task. This year proved to be another hard year. The boys don't understand my vision. (Hehehe). But I did get some really cute pictures and I really love our 2015 holiday card. 

MSU vs Alabama 2015

Football time!!

Owen and I took Sam to the Mississippi State and Alabama football game. Andrew opted to stay with aunt Abby, aha and mick. I love taking the boys to the games. State has a great atmosphere for games. It's so much fun.

Bully dressed up as captain American. That is Sam's favorite super hero.

Mississippi State did not win...but we stayed the whole game and had a lot of fun with my parents. 

Halloween 2015

    

!

I am very disappointed in myself that it has taken me so long to post about our year. I guess that means we are having fun and super busy!

We went to Sacred Heart's trunk or treat on Thursday. Then on Friday of Halloween we went to Kinsley Ferguson's for her 4th birthday party. That was a really cute party. Kinsley is Sam's friend from school. I am glad we were able to visit with his friends. 

It was supposed to storm on Halloween so the city changed Trick or Treating to Friday.

But on Halloween night we went to our neighbors the Crane's. Sally had the neighbors over for potluck and movies. It was so much fun. I think it was one of our best Halloween's to date.

Treasure box day!

On Friday's Andrew's class gets treasure box if they stayed on "green" the entire week. This particular Friday Andrew chose these fun glasses. 

Birthday party fun

These boys love a birthday party. One of our neighbors- Samuel turned 3 in September. He had a Jake pool party. Andrew and Sam loved every minute of it. 

Owens birthday

My parents decided to flock our yard for Owen's birthday. It was really fun for the boys. The sacred heart youth group did this as a fundraiser. 

First day of school signs

I could not find these signs for the first day of school. So we did a retake on the 2nd day.  Go with the flow is our theme right now. 

Week at Grandmom and Granddad's

DAndrew spent a week at my parents house this summer. They took him to lake Martin, swimming in Selma, painting at ceramics and all around good fun in Selma. Andrew did really good being away. He was gone 7 days and that was probably 2 days too long. He says he wants to go again next year. 

Sam, ralphie and Andrew before Andrew leaves for the week. 

One last picture with mom before we say good bye for the week. 

Andrew saw the longest alligator during this trip. 

Fishing at aha and micks

We took advantage of aha and mocks back yard and tried a little fishing. The boys maybe a little too young for it. But they were excited about the concept of it all. 

Aha's birthday diner

We celebrated Owen's mom's birthday in August. We had a mini fiesta. So much fun with Spanish singing and sombreros
