Christmas in Canton 2008

Riding in a horse and carriage around the Canton Square.




We took the kids last night, along with some friends, to Canton to see the Christmas lights. This will definitely be a tradition for our family. We had such a good time even though it was misting rain. We got to ride a train, a fire truck, the carousel, the cars, and took a horse and buggy ride around the square. We even got to see Santa Claus!

Addie's Thanksgiving Feast

Addie's preschool K3 class had a Thanksgiving Feast on the last day of school before the Thanksgiving holidays. They had some great food and got to wear the Pilgrim hats that they made! The kids had a great time showing us their room and what they're learning.

Tinkerbell!!!


I know that I'm way behind in my blogging; this is just such a busy time of year!! Super fun, but so busy. We celebrated Addie's fourth birthday on November 18. I can't believe our sweet baby girl is already four years old. Where has the time gone? I'll never forget the night she was born and Will coming to the hospital and kissing her on the top of her little head. She's such a sweet little girl and brings so much joy to our family. I sent cookies to her preschool class on her birthday and Randy and I took her to eat lunch that day at Newk's. We had her birthday party later that week at the gym at church. We had an inflatable for the kids to jump in, a Tinkerbell cake, and everyone had a blast! Enjoy the pictures!!

We had such a fun Halloween this year. Thursday night we went to my parents church (and the church I grew up in), Grandview Baptist Church in Pearl. They had their first Trunk or Treat and it was so fun. The kids had fun getting candy and I enjoyed seeing a lot of people that I've known my whole life. When we left there, we went trick or treating in Patrick Farms with our dear friends, the Bryants. The kids had a wonderful time!

Walt Disney World!!!

I'm behind on my blog, that's for sure! The last few weeks have been just crazy busy. It's all been very fun stuff, just busy. We had a WONDERFUL time at Disney World a couple of weeks ago. Our trip had to be rescheduled due to those back to back hurricanes in September and Randy's job. We were so disappointed at the time, but it really worked out so well. The weather couldn't have been better. We had blue skies and temps in the low 80's. It was warm but not terribly hot. It rained one time for about 10 minutes and that was one night. The kids had a blast and Randy & I had as much fun as they did. Will LOVED riding Splash Mountain and Big Thunder Mountain with Randy. He'd have ridden those over and over if the lines hadn't been so long! The highlight of Addie's trip was meeting Cinderellla and Wyatt loved seeing Goofy and Tigger. Will got kisses from Belle and Jasmine, and boy did that make his day!! :) I hope you enjoy some pictures from our trip!
