Thanksgiving

This year Bobby had to work so I took all three kids with me to MS for Thanksgiving. He went to a gourmet dinner at Ruth's Chris steak house with his dad for Thanksgiving. I picked the kids up from school on Tuesday and we drove to MS. We met up with my Aunt Teri and Uncle Wimp and their daughters, my cousins Sandi & Kristie (and of course their kids). We stayed with Kristie and her daughter Hanna. The first day we were there my mom and Aunt Teri hosted a tea party for all the kids.

The girls getting ready for their tea party. Don't you know all princesses need crowns, magic wands, boas, hand made skirts (made by my Aunt Teri) and make up?

The boys got reindeer head bands and jingle bell necklaces.


Princess Emma has arrived

Tea is served! Peanut butter & jelly sandwiches, cheese and crackers and cucumbers.

My cousin Sandi and her sweet Bailey. She is such a cutie!

Emma is 4 and Jack is 3-well almost!

The bags of loot from their birthday party

Jack and his new bike. Thanks Grandpa!! He loves it!!

Emma and Jack's hand print

Jack's hand going on the wall

This year we decided that since our kids mostly have the same friends that we should do their party at the same time. We held their party at a play in Roswell called Play. It is an indoor activity center. They did a great party. At the end of each party they have each child put a hand print on the wall with paint. Here is Jack getting his hand painted.

Emma, Abigail and Cameron looking at the Cinderella cake that I made for Emma.

The party leader had each one of the kids lay on the trampoline while she jumped hard, they flew in the air and she would catch each one of them. At least with my two kids she did not break her back. At 4, Emma is weighing in at 31 pounds. Jack is a hefty 27lbs! We are wondering when Joshua will out weigh them. He is already 18lbs and is only 7 months.

My beautiful 4 year old. How can she possibly be so old??
