The weeks leading up to Thanksgiving were filled with tons of fun and family time. And I can't believe that this cute guy was only a few weeks away from turning 8 years old.
His class created some chalk art at school. I've been told that his drawing is a Pokemon character, but I have no idea which one. Honestly, Pokemon characters, games, shows, etc. just confuse me. So I trust that the drawing is the cutest Pokemon ever drawn! HAHA!!!
When your sister wants to jump in on your picture!
Rory's class earned a pajama day at school as a reward for being good students. Rian however did not, but wanted to join in on the fun. It was pretty awesome when we got to pick up that day and her friend (which is the younger sister of one of Rory's friends) showed up wearing the same Rainbow Dash pajamas. (By the way, this is Rian's new pose. I told her to pose like this when she was Batgirl for Halloween and she has decided to stay with it!)
Making sugar cookies with these kiddos. I got the recipe for the cookies and cream cheese frosting here. They are now mine and Rory's favorite cookies!!!
And this is why you crack the eggs in a separate bowl. I guess Rian doesn't know her own strength.
Snowmen...
...that turned out like BB-8s. Either way they were delicious!!!
Homemade cream cheese frosting. So good!!!
Visiting Rory at school for "Lunch with the Ones You Love".
I was challenged by a friend to post on Facebook a black & white photo everyday for 7 days that represented my day, no people, no explanations. So this is what a week looks like for me, or at least that particular week.
And this little sweetheart turned 13 years old on the 20th.
Yup, sharing blankets doesn't go over very well in our house. They are the definition of sisters.
Some Frosty Paws ice cream to celebrate Pinky's birthday.
Always drawing and coloring.
I think it's time to create a reading space downstairs for the kiddos.
Rory is completely obsessed with playing baseball. Fall ball just ended, so he is getting ready for spring.
Our little fielder.
Chilly night, warm snuggles
So Rory is learning about the dangers of what happens when you "crowd the plate". But he took a ball to the thumb like a pro. He went out the next day with Randy. (I know it's hard to see in the next pics, but his thumb swelled and was bruised.)
About to get their jump on at a friend's birthday party. I love this kiddos so much!!!
Randy's plate of spaghetti and meatballs...
...that Pinky was willing to climb on the table for. She is NOT allowed on the table ever!
Just in case you were wondering, she did not intimidate Randy into giving her some. Nice try Pinky!
Thanks for stopping by for a quick recap of our weeks leading up to Thanksgiving. I'll be back (hopefully) tomorrow with our day of thankfulness.
