November

I could have waited longer to post pictures but with the Holidays just around the corner, I know I will have plenty of pictures coming up. Last weekend, our Arkansas family came into town to visit and be with Nana for her ordination as a pastor!

Here is a great picture of the family

It was such a special service. We all lined up and Nana served each of us communion. Here is a picture of her with her father.

Bella was able to sit through the entire service but the boys were restless. I sat outside with them on the floor. They were still very cute and they were very proud of Nana!

We loved being with Jason's family all weekend. On Saturday we stayed at Grandpa and Nana's house all day. We just enjoyed being with everyone and eating great food! Jack made me a gluten free version of lunch and it was amazing good (of course!) I made two (ungluten free) cakes which I obviously didnt eat but they smelled good.

Later that night we celebrated Aunt Christy's birthday...she was a good sport. The kids love her!

We had a great time and cant wait to see everyone again soon!

Bella had her Thanksgiving Family Feast at school this week. Her class began the feast by saying The Lord's prayer. so precious! The first picture is Bella peeking (she is in the middle). How cute!

Jason could not be there so I asked Mimi to help out and thank goodness she did because Garrett just screamed and cried about all the food he saw that he did not want to eat. I finally gave in and let him eat yeast rolls (ewww) and grapes.

Here is my grumpy Garrett

Here is a picture of Bella and some of her friends

and here they are laying on the floor talking about something very important

One last picture of her with her BFF Maya. We had Maya and her mom, Christina over for pancakes last week and had a great time. Bella is such a free spirit. I love how she is always so happy and carefree...

See you soon!

Happy Fall Ya'll!

Well, Fall is here. And you know what that means....We have decorated for Christmas! Dont worry- I will wait until a December post to show you our Christmasy pictures. Right now I have some catching up to do!

First of all, we have been pretty busy with school festivities and just really enjoying the beautiful weather. Fall in Tennessee can be fickle because one day it is freezing and the next day, your wearing shorts again. My mom took some great pics of the kids on a beautiful day...

We wanted to get some shots of them barefoot in the creek...

It was a fun afternoon! We also spent many beautiful afternoons at the Pumpkin farm. Last year the boys busted a few pumpkins but this year we had alot of fun!

The kids love the animals-especially the goats:

A couple of Family shots...

(It was a bright day and obviously I couldnt find many pics with Bella's eyes open!)

Halloween was fun. Bella was Tinkerbell at school. Here she is with her class:

(The sad little girl in the banana costume cracks me up!)

The boys were Buzz Lightyear:

Then on Halloween night, The boys were superheroes and Bella was a Snow Princess:

We are really looking forward to Thanksgiving now. I will post more pictures soon!
