A Great Day in Aggieland and Thanksgiving 11-26-07

Sweet Pea had been talking about the Aggie game for weeks, but when it was finally time for kick off, I looked down the row and there she was, fast asleep on Aunt Kiki's lap. And I don't think she woke up until 3 minutes before half. Boy did she miss some great football. The Aggies were ON FIRE! After a disappointing season they really finished it off with a bang. But she did wake up in time to see the Fghtin' Texas Aggie Band and the second half shoot-out. In case you missed it, the Aggies beat the #13 Longhorns 38 - 30! Gig 'Em!

Here are a few pictures from the A&M/Tx game (Bear was there before the game, but I didn't find my camera until about halftime)...

More Halloween and Family Pics 11-08-07

Here are a couple of pictures from Costume Day at Sweet Pea's school. I forgot my camera so another mother took pictures for me! Some mothers are so prepared!



And last weekend my sister-in-law got married! She was a beautiful bride! And the wedding was fabulous (my mother-in-law is really good at that kind of stuff). Here are some pictures. I had to include pictures of J because she was so beautiful! And I should mention that Sweet Pea danced all night long. She was still on the dance floor as the DJ was packing up.

Halloween 11-01-07

Halloween night started off with a bang. As I was cooking dinner, holding Bear and talking on the phone to a friend, Sweet Pea got quiet all of a sudden. So, I started to look around for her and when I found her, this is what I saw:



In the next couple of hours we tried on a hundred different pairs of shoes, screamed and got sent to time out, and even "gently placed" a big sitting toy on our brother (it covered his body with the top of it jammed in his mouth). We were off to a good start!
After dinner, we got dressed and handed out candy to the trick or treaters. Sweet Pea had fun putting candy in all of the kids' bags:


Once we were dressed, we left to go trick or treating. Here are the kids as we trick or treated:


Once we started, Sweet Pea was so excited and had so much fun. She was skipping, singing and telling Nana how much she loved her. She loved to see all of the people and their dogs of course. I wasn't too excited about Trick or Treating this year. I didn't really like the idea of her asking for candy. But, I don't think she really cared about getting candy (she hasn't asked about it once), she just loved being with family and playing dress up and seeing all of the people. She would stop every once in a while and give some of her candy to J and Nana. All in all it was great night. Both kids were exhausted when we got home! In the spirit of Halloween, I have to post one "freaky" picture. Here's the Bear cub and his daddy. They are making the exact same face, but in different directions. Don't they look just alike?

Here are some more pictures from the night:


And from the other night at the Pumpkin Patch:
