So Sorry... I have been the biggest slacker and I am afraid it is only going to get worse before it gets better! I hope
ya'all had an awesome Thanksgiving... we had the whole
fam (My
fam) at our house for a few days and it was tons of fun. I hardly took any pics (which is
soooo unlike me...) but we had a great time... I took a video of the girls doing "Turkey Dinner," which was hilarious... but when I went to watch it it was not there... you could hear them but not see.. so hopefully Clint will send it to me??? But here would be my
fav outfit of the year. This is Clint's 3 year old!!! She is so
stinkin cute! We call her Jack Jack and she is a pistol!!! She left my house wearing this outfit and I made her let me take a pic (sorry Kori!) I just loved it... Really... she is so
stinkin cute! What you can't see is she has
Macee's tank top on,
McGwire's Nike sweats, the black leather jacket and pink cowgirl boots!!! AWESOME!!!
Next is my Murphy
lickin' the beaters after I whipped up some Banana Cream Pie (straight from the Jello box). I will never profess to be a Betty
Crocker! But... He LOVED it so I had at least 1 thumbs up!
Macee was able to spend some time with her friend Alyssa... These girls are like two peas in a pod!! They requested makeovers and nails... so that we did... these are 2 of about 100 photos!!! They are both adorable.
Last but not least the Nutcracker... I first wanted to thank all my totally awesome friends and family who came and supported
Macee. You do not know how excited she was that you call came. My mom and
Macee's 4 girl cousins from Cleveland traveled up and back Monday night... what troopers. Mace was so excited for them to be there. My mother-in-law and
SIL, Em, and her 2 cute girls came Tuesday... it makes for a late night when you have to travel back an hour or an hour and a half. Really.... it was great!!! And then the friends...I mean, really, I know how great my friends are but... this really meant
alot to both of us to have everyone that came there so thank you so much. It's always
alot of time and hard work and it was just awesome to have everyone there! I am putting a video below of her "Russian" part. She is the girl at the first (I missed her first back-handspring) and then she is always on the left and in front of the line. Sorry - I couldn't get any closer! Anyway, the prep... it usually take about 2 hours the night before performance so
Yee-Ha... glad to be done!!! Here she is in her curlers...
And here she is with her dance team as the "Party Girls!" These girls are like a big family... they are all so fun and cute! But I can definitely wait until next year for the next go around!
Oh... I better not forget to thank my friend Mandy Parsons for the new header. Isn't she talented? And so nice... really... she sent me the email to send her new pics. I owe her... for real... The pictures are a little preview of our family pictures we had done a few weeks ago. We are hoping for a final inspection on the house Friday!!! Which would mean we can start moving maybe over the weekend or next week. I can't tell you how relieved I will be when we are all done. I think it's kicking my butt at this point! I better go check a few blogs... sorry I have been such a bad commenter.... chances are I haven't even looked lately! But I still love ya all!!!

OH! How you keep busy! The pics are so cute. How cute is your header? I love it!!!!! I heard she did wonderful in the nutcracker. Brink has katlyn on his basketball team. Janet was telling me. What a wonderful experience that is for her. karen
I am glad it worked out ok. Thanks for the shout out on the blog. I like doing that type of thing so don't be afraid to ask for a new one any time!
I LOVE the Nutcracker! How fun for Macee to be able to be part of it. That is so fun! Glad you all had a great Thanksgiving!
How super fun. Mac is so pretty. I also love your new header, and your family pictures. I need to get that guy's number for next year.
I love the header! Would your friend do one for us too? I also liked the baby growth pic you had when you were pregnant with Murphy. Where did you get that? I'd like to use it. Just let me know in email or comment on my blog. Thanks. I'm sure Macee did a fantastic job! How exciting to be able to move into your new home for Christmas. Enjoy!
We loved the Nutcracker yesterday, Macee is such a talented dancer and performer. She did so awesome. I'm glad you had a great Thanksgiving and I am so excited to have you move into your new house. I hope it all works out for you this weekend. And if it does let us know and we'll help you move or watch your kids whichever would be the most helpful.
Oops! I forget to tell you how great your header turned out. I love the pictures of all of your kids.
Wow - first let me say that your kids' pictures are GREAT! How cute are those little faces . . . seriously - you make adorable children!!! Sounds like you've been busy busy. How fun to be moved into your new house before Christmas - and just in the nick of time too! If I were there I'd help you move!
I'm glad you had a great Thanksgiving! I could just love on Murphy all day! He is so cute and getting so big! Sorry we missed the Nutcracker! I'm sure Macee was awesome! She is such a doll and a great dancer! Thanks again for the Forgotten Carols, even though I acted like a dork. I had a great time and I really appreciated it! Your the best! Love ya!
I mean you're. Sorry I hate grammar stuff like that!
First of all....I'm glad you had a good Thanksgiving, too. Thank you for being so nice to us...and trying to include us. We think the world of you guys...and your family. Secondly, you know I love Murphy's little face. I am still dying over the fact that MAYS blew me a kiss today though.... Usually Murphy is the one giving me all the love, but not today. :o) Lastly, Macee was adorable, beautiful, and so talented in the Nutcracker. We loved watching her perform. I'm sorry for Jaxon and his lack of culture in his life. I'm sorry he's not used to dancing guys with TIGHT white tights....and doesn't quite know how to react politely or quietly to that one. hee hee In all seriousness, I think it's so much fun to watch her. I can't wait to see her dance again. She is just a little beauty. I know Brenna loved it, too. Brenna was on the edge of her seat watching.... I thought it was darling. I guess I lied. That wasn't my LAST thing to comment on. :o) THANK YOU again for taking us to the Forgotten Carols. Like Jess said, I was a dork, too....but I thought it was so fun. I loved hanging out and laughing together. I knew you'd be the one who ended up with all the nuts though.... ha ha I'm sorry about the other day at Ross. I didn't want to embarrass you....so I hope I was calm. I'm still bugged, as you can tell. BUT it was fun getting all the stuff together with you. I think it's such a good thing for our kids to see and do...and be a part of. Love you. :o) THE END
I guess the good thing is you only have one girl that takes two hours to get ready! Imagine if it was all six! That's one thing about boys, they are ready in minutes! Hallelujah! How do you find time to do everything?! You're an inspiration to all us struggling mom's...
Love, love those new family pictures. We are taking a year off from professional family pictures and Christmas cards. I just can't squeeze it in this year. Besides every family photo we have is in winter gear with fall scenery. I'm ready for something new. I just feel so guilty when I don't send them out.
Sounds like you guys had a fun Thanksgiving, and a very busy few weeks. Your little nutcracker princess is so cute. Brityn is really wanting to side step the dance thing and play ball! Boo hoo! They only have tap and ballet out here though. No "fun" dance classes. It's just not fast paced enough for her. Can't wait to see the rest of your family pics, and good luck with your move.
Macee is so talented! You are definitely in trouble as everyone always says about her- she's a beauty! And ditto to that cute header and picts! It's good to see your boys listed because they look so close to each other and they're so close in age that I have a hard time differentiating them- I guess it would help if we ever saw ya! :)
All the pics look so good. I can't believe your moving into your house already. Hope we get to see it someday! Your kids are so cute and Macee is beautiful. Sounds like you have a few too many tv shows. Maybe you should get your kids more involved- try sports for instance! Happy Holidays!
