Its beginning to look a lot like Christmas!

Last weekend, Hadlee and Hays went to see Nana, Papaw and Aunt Sue in Cuero. Harper stayed with me and got to participate in the Christmas Parade. It was our first time to go to the parade. We are definitely marking that one on the calendar for years to come. Harper rode on our church float.



Daddy is out of town so Aunt Ro came to spend the week with us. (I didn't take these pics that's why Ro and I are both in a picture!) I just had to post this because I take lots of these pics.....Hays get your fingers out of your nose!! Busted!

We were asked to help bless the Christmas tree at my work. I divided the speaking part into three different parts, Hays had no interest from the beginning so Harper and Hadlee memorized their lines and at the last minute Hadlee was the only one that said her part. I was so proud of all of them for helping me with the blessing. Yes, that's Hadlee holding the microphone.

We got to tell Santa "Hi"!

November in Review........

We started out with the cubs still playing football. They lost in the first round....Daddy was sad then booked up all his "free" weekends with more hunting.



We had parent/teacher conferences at school. Learned that all three of the kids do not know how to skip...got to work on it. Hays...poor Hays... The conference was focused on all of their positive attributes but at the end of our meeting Mrs. Hoppens said something about getting through that hard head of Hays....

Hadlee wanting her picture taken before school. Look she has jeans on, something she has started wearing in the last couple of months.

The Kickin' Koyotes Soccer Team The girls had a blast in soccer this year. Coach Jasinski did a great job with all of the girls. Ribbon, Della, Hadlee, Harper and Kennedy posing for the picture.

We had fans for some of the games. Mema and Papa brought Hannah to watch one evening and Uncle Don and Aunt Ro also came the same night.
