So Very Thankful!

Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday. No presents, no hustle and bustle, no stress. Good food, football, and spending time with family and friends are the only things on the agenda. I absolutely love it! It's a great time to reflect on all we have to be thankful for without the craziness.

We are very thankful for this little guy!

It's Cookie Time

Cam loves cookies! He uses the word "cookies" at least 10 times a day. Don't worry, we don't give him cookies every day, but that doesn't stop him from asking for them.

You can imagine how thrilled he was when Aunt Nickole and the boys came over to make cookies with us. He was on cloud 9!

hard at work

I'm not sure if Cam actually made a cookie. He seemed to be content eating the dough.

Ready to decorate

He tried to wash down the dough with some frosting:)

Top of the Pile

We are bringing another one into this craziness. The questions is...

how long before she is on top of that dog pile?

Happy Halloween!

I love Halloween! I don't exactly know why..I hate scary movies or being scared in general, and as anyone can see, I don't need the candy. Maybe it's the weather change or maybe it's because it's the beginning of holiday season. I really can't put my finger on it.

I will tell you the one thing that has made me love it even more: watching my son. Seeing him get excited to see Mr. Bones and the other decorations daily, experiencing candy corn, and dressing up like a pumpkin. Seeing Halloween through his eyes this year has been such a special memory for Matt and myself. We are all sad to see it go.

My sister throws the best parties that include food,

pumpkin carving

and entertainment. Here's Cooper doing the Thriller dance.

My little pumpkin had a great time!

The President even made an appearance.

Bring on the candy!

Campbell's first trick or treat!

He decided it was less work to sit on our doorstep and eat our candy. Smart Boy!

I had to take a picture of Mr. Bones before we put him away. He was definitely Cam's favorite part of Halloween. Cam loved to make him dance and sing. Not hearing him 20 times a day is something I'm not going to miss:)
