Christmas Cookie Baking & Decorating

We had a great time together baking cookies and then decorating them. There was a little icing on the nose and a little on the toes, basically EVERYWHERE. But, everyone had fun. One thing I can say is these cookies were made with LOTS of LOVE.
Merry Christmas everyone!

Noah's 2nd Birthday

Noah turned the big 2 on November 21st. These are pictures of him opening his presents from Daddy, Mommy, and Layla. He got Mater (from CARS) and a hot wheels parking garage. The parking garage was more fun later after Daddy and Mommy put together the million pieces and put on all the stickers. UH OH guess we should have read that "some assembly required" statement first!!

Thanksgiving Weekend

We headed off to Oklahoma for the weekend to visit Mark, Linda, Robin, Krista & Tara. Layla and Noah played with their cousins all day.

We went and looked at some really cool Christmas Lights at a local college (sorry no pics of that).






We brought Sammy up so he could play with his new cousin Trapper and they played and played and played and played and played.














Noah got to pose in Mark's race car.













We went to Paris






Texas

























Layla thought it was the top of the world























Sammy thought it was pretty good too!

Yes he's peeing on the tower. Sorry Paris TX, he thought he was in France.

More pictures from Layla's day!

Here are some more fun shots of our 2 cuties having fun!

Layla turned 3 on November 4th!!

Layla planned her big day out "all by herself" as she tells us. She woke up to her room decorated with Ariel decorations. Then, it was a big birthday breakfast and opening presents. Then, we headed out for the day at one of our favorite places, the Caldwell Zoo in Tyler. We had dinner that evening at her favorite restaurant, CHICK-FIL-A. It was a great day.

And next to it is the fellowship hall.
















Behind it is our house. This is our back yard.

And another angle of the front yard.

Halloween

Here are Layla and Noah in there Mickey and Mini Mouse costumes. We had our churches Trunk or treat last Saturday night so they get to wear their costumes more than once.

Noah wouldn't wear the gloves at all, Layla did for 5 minutes.

And here's a cute one of the girls!
