Ho Ho!!

Just a little holiday cheer. I hope all of you are having a great Christmas.

We beleieve...in you

Last Wednesday we took the girls to see Santa!!! This was the first year London wrote her Santa letter by herself. It was so cute. She got the Toys-R-Us add and began her list, her long list. Unfortunately for her, Santa only brings one gift to our house. Sorry London, Mommy doesn't like to be out done by Mr. Clause. Anyways, we were off to see Santa. I took a few pictures of her list on the way there because I knew she was dead set on leaving it with Santa. London went first and gave Santa her list. He laughed as he was reading it. See, when she was copying the list she included some of the name brands just as they appeared in the add. Next it was Brooklyn's turn. We have yet to find anything this child is afraid of and this includes Santa. She staired at him a little, but sat long enough for a picture. So til next year Santa...it was fun. We Beleieve in you........

Christmas parade

Monday night was our Christmas parade. London rode in it with her softball team, Bing Bang Boom. Her float came by so fast that we almost missed her. It was Brooklyn's first parade and she loved it. Jeremy and I have never seen her be so still for so long. Sonya came down with the boys, and I think Jacob approved of the parade. He was in heaven after the candy started raining down on us. He had his pockets full, Sonya's pockets full, a bag full, and he was throwing the rest under Sonya's legs. Soo cute he is. And lets not forget Mathew. What a happy little one. Those two might just be the cutest little boys I know!!! Well done Sonya and Billy.

Thanksgiving PTO program

A few weeks ago we had London's PTO program at school. This was their cutest production yet. London told me she was going to be dressed as a turkey-indian. I said, "a turkey or an indian?" She said "a turkey-indian, mom!" Like I should know what that was. After many failed attempts to understand, I gave up and decided I would just wait to see the show. Never doubt your children!! She wore an indian dress (that she made herself at school out of a pillowcase) and a hat that had a turkey on it.....hence the indian-turkey. She was a star!!! It was a great way to quick off the holiday season.

Field Trip!!!

About a month ago I went with London on her field trip to the Wild Things Farm in Pocola. We had a great time. London is always so proud when I come on her field trips. I love it!!! (I know it won't always be this way so I am trying to soak it up while I can.) They grow up so fast.....it just doesn't seem quiet fair. I love getting to know her friends and watching interact with them. She is a strong personality and in my eyes a natural leader.

I am Thankful for......

Keeping in spirit with the season I wanted to post a little blog about a very special person in my life who truly makes everyday much easier for me. I am so thankful to have Mrs. Debbie and her family in my life. For those of you who do not know, Mrs. Debbie is my Mary Poppins..(only she is better).....Every morning I arrive bright and early at her house to leave little Miss Brooklyn. Brooklyn loves it sooo much down there that she is practically jumping out of her car seat to get to her. I can't imagine my life without Debbie, and I know when I leave Brooklyn she is in great hands. She takes Brooklyn for walks, they ride the Rhino, pet horses and see cows. She nevers seems stressed and she is always happy to see us. Thank you, DEBBIE!!! (and stinky Bob) I know I don't tell you enough, but, you guys mean the world to us. Happy Thanksgiving!!!!

Meet Hannah Montana and my little Pumpkin

Halloween was so much fun this year. The girls had a great time and looked soooo cute. London looked so grown up in her Hannah Montana costume, and Brooklyn played the part well as a little pumpkin. Brooklyn learned very quickly how to trick-or-treat. She would walk up to houses and just put her bag out, get her candy, and go. London was hard to keep up with. Little sister's snails pace was really wearing on her nerves, but she was very patient. She made her mommy proud.

The Pumpkin Patch

Last Saturday Jeremy and I took the girls to the Wild Things Farm in Pocola, OK. We all had a great time feeding the animals, petting the horses, walking through the corn maze, going on a hay ride, and of course picking the perfect pumpkin. I think we may have started our very first family tradition. Brooklyn is all about feeding and petting animals. She is destined to be a farm girl. London, however, is the professional pumpkin picker. Here's a few highlights from our trip.

London's Enchanted Tea Party

London celebrated her 7th Birthday with an "enchanted" tea party. WOW!! Seven. I can't hardly believe it. It was one of her best birthdays yet. She invited nine of her friends for dress-up, tea, and dancing.

Brooklyn's Big ONE!!!!!!!!!

Brooklyn was sooooo precious on her first birthday. I feel like her first year has flown by! Where does the time go? We all had a great time celebrating with her, watching her open her gifts, and tear into her cake.
