JJ's Thanksgiving Feast

little pilgrim hat cookies. so easy to make and such a big hit with the kids!

JJ's class did a great job with the Thanksgiving feast and little program. what a great way to start our Thanksgiving break!

Happy Thanksgiving to all!

Psalm 100

Make a joyful noise unto the Lord all ye lands.

Serve the Lord with gladness:

Come before His presence with singing.

Know ye that the Lord, He is God:

It is He that hath made us, and we are His;

We are His people, and the sheep of His pasture.

Enter into His gates with thanksgiving,

And into His courts with praise:

Give thanks unto Him and bless His name.

For the Lord is good; His lovingkindness endureth for ever,

And His faithfulness unto all generations.

Psalm 100

little b is doing great! so far no flu for her. we keep praying for her to be protected from this nasty bug. her brothers and sis have all had it, so she has been exposed in a big way! she is getting ready to crawl (rocking on all fours). life is going to get even more busy. i am happy it happens in stages and not all at once. our baby girl is growing so fast! we love you baby girl!

a hunting we will go...

jut picked jj up from school today and took him out to lunch and to cabelas to get jj outfitted for his 1st hunting trip! (he still needs to find an orange vest or bodysuit if i could have it my way) i may need to make him one. this was such an exciting day for jj. he has been talking about his 1st hunting trip for a long long time.

my handsome hunters!

the famous light up hat! this was the first thing on jj's hunting list. pretty cool huh?

a date with sam

toy story in 3D! the glasses were a tad big on sam. we can't wait for toy story 3. these are my favorite pixar movies. even though it was a double feature, we only watched toy story 1. we loved it!

after the movie we went for a walk in the mall and i surprised sam with a trip into build a bear. he had never been. he was so excited! he now has a really cool camo/fishing bear.

sam was so proud of his little bear and the box it came in! he was showing random ladies at the mall his little bear inside his own special home. so funny! sam and i had a special afternoon together! love this boy so much!
