Atlanta

Steve stopped by yesterday on his way to the airport to tell us bye. He was headed to Atlanta where the Cowboys will play tonight. We are hoping for a win!! Lots of luck to the 'Boys!

Cowboys Children's Christmas Party

The Dallas Cowboys Children's Christmas party was last night! We all had a great time! Macie cried when she sat on Santa's lap... but I wasn't surprised after the experience at North Park. Macie loved eating mini hamburgers, mini corndogs & chicken nuggets (as did Steve & I). We also got to design our own Christmas cookies & cupcakes. Macie had a wonderful caricature drawing made of her, and one of Santa's elves made her a flower out of a balloon! The Dallas Cowboys organization really went all out to create a special night for the kiddos!

Decorating the Christmas Tree

Laura Kate & Abby

My lifelong friend Laura Kate, and her daughter, Abby, came into town this week for a visit. Macie and I met them at North Park today for a visit with Santa Claus. When Laura Kate and I were little our moms would take us , along with two other friends, Mandy and Anna, every year to North Park to see Santa and all the Christmas decorations. I still have the Polaroid pictures we had taken back in the early 1980's. Too bad our girls didn't enjoy Santa as much as we did back then....

Visit With Santa Claus

As you can see from the pictures, the girls were NOT impressed with Santa...

Little Turkey

We are so thankful for our little turkey!

A Major Milestone

Look who's walking!! Macie has been taking lots of little steps on her own. She thinks walking is so funny.... She laughs with every step she takes, which makes walking a little more difficult :)

Lydia's Birthday Party

Macie had so much fun at Lydia's birthday party today!! Happy Birthday Lydia!

A Day at the Park

We had a great time at the park today! We met Staci, Cade & Makynli at a park in Coppell for a picnic. Cade and Macie had a great time playing outside in the beautiful fall weather!

14 Months

Macie is 14 months old... and she is a very busy little girl She is learning to walk, learning lots of new words, and getting lots of teeth! She is constantly asking "what's that?" She says "dog" everytime she sees Lexie. Lexie's feelings are a little hurt because she will say "Trooper" (my parent's German Shepard), but won't say "Lexie". She has 5 teeth now... all of which have come in the last 2 months. She loves to eat and is enjoying trying lots of new foods. She is such a joy and so much fun!!

Happy Birthday Jackson!

Macie's friend Jackson's birthday was today... and this picture of Macie has nothing to do with it... She was having such a good time at the party and was so busy, I had no time to take pictures of the birthday boy. Happy Birthday Jackson!!

We Love Fall!

Here are some fun fall pictures of Macie and Lexie taken at MiMi & PawPaw's house in Emory:

Flower Pots are FUN!

Macie had fun playing with the dirt in MiMi's flower pots over the weekend!

Fall Festival

Macie had a very fun Halloween night!! We went with the Carrell's and the Stevenson's to the Prestonwood Fall Festival in Plano. Macie had a great time playing games - bean bag toss, fishing, soccer, horseshoes... and many more - and won LOTS of candy!! She and I went down a BIG slide... pretty scary! We even went on a very fun train ride!!

Pumpkin Patch

Macie and Jackson had a great time at the Flower Mound Pumpkin Patch today. They went on a hayride and rode in a wagon through the pumpkin patch. It was so much fun!
