It's been a long 3 months with lots of actives and the next few months will just be as busy!

The month of November....

This month was busy! We took a trip to Silver Dollar City for the Christmas lights, You got sick and diagnosed with croup and upper respiratory infection.  We had 4 year old pictures taken, a superhero party, and grandparent lunch to celebrate you! You loved getting gifts and eating cake, you didn't so much like the superhero (even though you asked for Flash to come!) We had Thanksgiving with Mooh and Pooh and the family. You helped daddy put lights up on the house for Christmas and helped me put the ornaments on the tree. We meet our friends for the town parade. Lastly, Poppi was super brave and took you took get your 4 year old shots - he took you to get a cookie after so you weren't upset for to long.

• The month September...

We took a few trips this month, one to Missouri for a family reunion, you have a cousin and y'all could pass as brothers because you look so much alike! It was great getting to see our family and hope they start doing this every year. They had a fund raiser at my high school it happen to make it an 18 year band reunion and some of my favorite people. You went to the dentist and you did great - it only cost us a big toy! And last but not least, my most favorite family vacation - we left Tuesday night after work and drove to Waco and spent the night. Wednesday we got up and had breakfast/lunch at Magnolia Table and and then spend a few hours at the Solos. We left and stopped in Austin for a picture with the capital and then headed to San Antonio. Thursday we went to the Zoo and walk on the River walk and went to the Alamo. Friday we went to Sea World all day, you loved it so much! We drove back to Dallas Friday night and went to the Razorback game Saturday morning. Sunday we got up and went to the Cowboy Game and then to the Texas State Fair.
