A Lot to be Thankful For

We have had a great few weeks. Libby, John and Parker came up to visit us in early November. Emily and Nick had baby Bryn November 6 and we've spent time with Grandmom, Nana, Bulldog and Big D. It was a busy month!

Here's Presley pushing Parker in the car. This was really the first time they've actually played together. They're both at such cute ages and have the best personalities.

Cameron's Grandmom came to visit us the weekend before Thanksgiving. We haven't seen her since July. We had a lot of fun!! She was a big help to us and Presley- even bathed Presley for us one night and took her to potty! Presley loved playing with her and showing her all our fun activities in Texas. We sure do miss her, but it was a great visit. Looking forward to seeing her again after Christmas.
We went to see Santa's arrival one night at the shopping center near our house. Presley was not amused with Santa (even though he was on stage), but she loved the big tree and puppet show.



Grandma Debbie was in town, so we had everyone over to dinner one night. She brought Presley an early Christmas gift that Presley LOVES! I swear, she played with these cookies for 24 solid hours. Thanks so much, Grandma! We can't wait to see you again!

We traveled to North Carolina for Thanksgiving to see Cameron's other grandparents, Bulldog and Nana and Big D. We had a really great trip! It was so nice to see trees changing color and real leaves on the ground. Presley loved playing outside. The neighbors all had horses, miniature horses and cows. We took walks most days to visit all the animals. It was a really great trip and we hope to go back to visit soon!
Presley and Big D had a big time playing together! We are so glad he got to come see us and visit with Presley.



Giving Nana BUMPS! Nana cooked for us all week. We all ate very well- especially the last night when we had banana splits and lasagna!


Watching the Auburn game with Big D. WAR EAGLE!


Throwing rocks/sticks into the creek was also one of her favorite activities.
Nana knitted Presley this cute scarf that came in handy when it turned cold on Thanksgiving Day.

Picking a flower for Nana.


Sweeping the deck of leaves. We definitely don't have that problem in Texas!

We flew in from NC and went straight to Mal's birthday dinner. We had a great dinner and even a champagne toast for Alex and Tiffany!! They got engaged over the holiday. We are excited for them and can't wait to hear the wedding details as they start planning. It was a great night. Happy Birthday, Mal!!

How wonderful! She is too precious and I know all have enjoyed spending time with her. That just means she's all MINE when you come for Christmas. Gma and Big D, back off! :)
Love you three. See you soon!
