Whew!

We thought Wednesday was going to last forever, but they finally arrived! We were ready with our "Welcome to Texas" signs.

They are here , they are here!!

We had a great Thanksgiving meal. This was the most I have ever been involved in hosting a Turkey Day but not to worry I left the important things, like the turkey, up to the expert!
J even got in on the action.
Our day was full of talking around the table and listening to the kiddos soak up every minute of each other.

Movies and popcorn!

On Friday we did a little early celebrating for this girls 5th birthday!
Thanks Aunt Sus and crew and Uncle Hal! I am sure the neighbors will love to see her riding her bike in this!!
and for Nate's happys too, JD was asleep but loved his too:)
Her gift from Nanny and Pa, she was thrilled.

She got a salon set from Nana to go with her doll. We had the chair so now she is all set.
She is a whole hand!
Whats a family photo without someone picking their nose...
Auntie's gift was yards of this fabric, so we got busy and made the girls and their dolls matching pjs. There was enough left for me to make matching pants for J and her girl also. We love the polka dots:)

Donuts for birthday morning, complete with silly straws from nana.
Our sweet neighbors from TN moved the same time that we did. They live in Shreveport now. We brought some of their boxes with us to help them out so they came Sat to get them. They brought Miss J a huge cupcake for her birthday.
We have had enough cake for 6 birthdays!! JD loves blowing out the candles and lucky for him sis didn't mind.
The night before Nanny and Pa left, she had the kiddos circle toys that they would like to get for Christmas. This was a very serious task:)
We finished up the weekend by getting our Christmas up. Hubs lit a fire last night ( after I kindly asked him to move the stockings). It was a great way to end a great weekend.
