Thanksgiving Feast 2009

Today at school the girl's had their Thanksgiving Feast with their class. Before the feast, they did two little presentations with another 1st grade class to share what they have learned about Pilgrims and Indians. They were so cute!

Here's Lauren getting to read her part......she was not feeling well today so I was proud of her for participating with her class and hanging in there.




Here's Leah ready and in position for her part.......

Leah was so proud of herself after she read her part.....you can tell by the look on her face. She used to be terrified of getting up in front of people, but I have noticed she is becoming more comfortable with it........she has really come a long way.

Logan was there to supervise all the Thanksgiving festivities of course!

Check out this super cool turkey that one of the moms made for the girl's class......they kids loved it and it was fun to eat too!

Here they all are.....ready to dig in!

Logan had to join in on the feasting of course! He was NOT shy!

We managed to get one pretty good photo of us all at least!

Here's one of the videos I got of the girls reading their parts in one of the presentations they did.

Pictures of Logan

We took Logan to have some birthday pictures made today at Sears. The lady we usually use was all booked up until after Christmas so we headed to Sears with a great coupon and got alot of pictures for an awesome deal! We got some great shots of my baby boy. I can't believe he is going to be 2 in two weeks. As you can tell, he LOVES the camera and was not shy about posing at all. That's my boy!

Check out Logan's haircut he got this afternoon! Daddy took him to get his haircut and then brought him up to school to show me his new "spiky do".

While I was getting packed up and ready to leave school, one of our cleaning crew guys came in and he let Logan help him vacuum up the carpet. Logan loved it! He said, "Mommy, I helper!"

Also, last night the girls got to attend a Pump-it-Up party with some other friends from school. The students had to sell at least 15 items in our school's cookie dough fundraiser to earn the party as one of their prizes. They had a blast!

Halloween 2009 - Part One

My little vampire! Who needs Rob Pattinson when I have this little cutie?

Helping Daddy carve the pumpkin.....the girls drew the face and Logan helped scoop out the seeds.....he kept saying, "Daddy, a mess.......a mess!"

The finished product.....

We were keeping it real this morning with a little Michael Jackson......it wouldn't be Halloween without a little "Thriller"! There's nothing like my little man jammin' in his diaper to some MJ - gotta love it!

This video is of the girls jumping on this cool inflatable thing at Dewberry Farm last weekend.....it was unlike any other inflatable I had ever seen.....they had a blast jumping on it!

Last but not least, here's video of Logan dancing to the "singing chicken" show at Dewberry Farm last weekend - he had his groove going for sure!

Here's a picture of me and my partner in crime (Jennifer) this morning at school waiting for the festivities and parades to start......

The girls had Fall Fun Day today also and I managed to sneak down to one of their rotations and snap a couple of pictures. My little pumpkin girls! They are looking forward to going to a masquerade ball birthday party tomorrow (their third costume party) and then trick-or-treating tomorrow night! I've got to get busy working on Logan's "train" to go with his train engineer costume.......pics to come soon of the finished product!

For the month of November, our school is allowing students to make posters to honor veterans in their family. We made one for our daddy, of course! Here is a picture of the finished product - it turned out very cute and was a fun project to make. The girls got a kick out of looking at some of daddy's old Navy pictures........"oh my" is about all I can say about that - ha!
