Snow in Houston






Fancy Nancy

The girls favorite books are the Fancy Nancy books. The author and illustrator of the books came to Barnes and Noble last week and there was a Fancy Nancy party and book signing. There were tons of little girls dressed up fancy and even some parents. The girls had a great time but I am pretty sure Barnes and Noble is going to ban feather boas from all future events. There were feathers everywhere.





Visit with Santa


Oh Christmas Tree Oh Christmas Tree

It was pretty funny watch the kids decorate our tree this year. Every time the girls would put on an ornament Chase would go take it off and bring it back to me. Needless to say it took a little longer than usual and our tree this year is very top heavy with ornaments since Chase likes to take them off so much.








Thanksgiving

We had Thanksgiving at our house this year. My mom was in town and we cooked the feast together. Our neighbors The Chatfields celebrated the holiday with us this year. We had a great time but somehow I forgot to take very many pictures this year.


The girls learned about the first Thanksgiving and made costumes and ate feasts at their schools.

One mom made this adorable Turkey and of fruit and veggies. I had to take a pic so I could copy it next year.

Halloween
















We started off the day at our neighbors to carve our pumpkins and have a BBQ. My dad is in town and he carved the best pumpkin face of all. The girls picked out a giant pumpkin for him. We then went trick or treating with some of our neighbors. The weather was perfect. It was cold but not too cold. The kids had a blast and got way too much candy. Chase was such a trooper he trick or treat for two hours and walked the whole time. We would try to pick him up or put him in the stroller and he would freak out. He loved running from house to house. So fun!!
