Happy Thanksgiving!

THE Wedding of 2013

I got to be the matron of honor in my sweet, sweet friend, Jessica's wedding in November. And this wedding was an event! The weekend started off with rehearsal dinner at Billy Bob's.

 Our favorite ACU Sing Song move with the lovely bride-to-be in the middle : )

 Then the Cory Morrow concert after dinner, with two-stepping of course!

 The wedding was amazing! Everything was so fancy & Jessica even walked down the isle to a live band!

 The dinner was catered by Reata & I survived my matron-of-honor toast. Ok, I nailed it, if I do say so myself : )

 After 10 years, I'm still hanging out with my old roomies!

 And I had the hottest date there!

Avocado Face

I love this boys's enthusiasm for food!

 If he follows in his sister's footsteps, he will be doing the guacamole dance soon enough!

 No pictures please...

Happy Birthday to Me

Wish I'd gotten some with my hubby, but here are some cute pics of me with my sweet babes on my bday.

 And when I came in to the kitchen on my birthday, Savannah was there waiting, with chocolate chips to make pancakes for me. Thanks honey!

ICE

We went to see ICE at the Gaylord on my birthday. It was the only couple of hours the whole weekend that everyone was well!

Fall Family Pics

Love our newest family pics that Bran's coworker did for us!

9 Months-Spencer

If I thought he changed considerably from being a baby to a crazy crawling boy from 7 to 8 months, that was nothing! 9 months old & he is giving me a run for my money! The amount of energy this tiny person has, continues to blow my mind. And his curiosity-I love it! He doesn't want to be held, but just wants to crawl & explore. We just had to put locks on cabinets because he gets into everything. I've had to start a collection of things in the dining room of items he's pulled over on top of himself (lamp, stool, coat rack, etc). His poor little head is always bruised : ( He is currently my work-out! (Danae, now i know why you are so skinny : ) He has an odd obsession with the vacuum too. He follows me around while I do the floors & tries to climb up the vacuum...while it's on & loud...? Savannah is still a little scared of the vacuum, but not this guy! He absolutely loves bathtime with his sister. They work up a storm in there with two foot waves & water all around the tub on the floor. I can tell he gets water up his nose, but he recovers quickly & keeps splashing. He has been going to the nursery at Bible study & doing well (yay!) He is slowly walking around things like the coffee table & couches while holding on. He loves Juliette, but now that he can hit, she doesn't like him anymore. He loves his Daddy & being thrown up in the air. He loves his sister & loves any game she plays with him. But he is still a mommy's boy...and all that infers. He has learned how to give those big, wet, open mouthed kisses. I forgot how much I loved those!! He is eating baby food & there is no going back! He eats it at most meals & has turned nothing down so far. He is about to have his first tooth come in, I am sure of it. So we are loving this sweet gummy smile for as long as we can!
