More of This and That

This picture was taken at our third grade Teacher Christmas Party. These were some of the kiddos. Emma Klaire did go, but I didn't get a picture of the younger ones.


I just love this picture. She loves giving her babies a bath at Nana's house.

Ella Kate's Christmas program at school. It was called the Reindeer Whispherer. They did a great job!


                           These pictures were taken at our house during Girls' Night Out. It was my night to host. We had some delicious food and lots of fun.



I went to eat with Karen and Andrea one Friday night and this was the picture Norman texted me of the girls while I was out. They were coloring Christmas pages.


                        I just had to share this................PRICELESS! .....in more than one way!  Ha!


The girls and Nana gave me a "birthday  bash". They love doing things like that and Nana always helps out. 


We have had several birthdays in the family lately. I am hoping to mention each one next year. It is too late in the year to start now.  Literally...we only have one more day! Ha!!!!

Speaking of birthdays............Emma Klaire just tickles me.....she is constantly talking about her birthday.   She say things like.....How old will I be on my birthday?, We need to start on my invitations for my birthday., What kind of cake can I have?, etc......

and remember she has an August birthday. I guess it is never too early to start planning. Ha!

Like I said....this was a lot of just "this and that."

So until next time....I hope you find much JOY!

SKATING FUN


The last Wednesday night of November which was a fifth Wednesday-- our church took the children skating. Ella Kate was a whiz on skates, but Emma Klaire had never been skating.  She was not going to have any part of it at first. She enjoyed just running around. Then she realized she might be missing something, so she put on skates. She loved it!!!!!! They both had so much fun!

A Simple Tradition

Looking under the tree at the lights like their daddy did when he was a little boy!!



Go Back

As I am going back and finishing some posts that I started earlier, I have realized that it is posting on the date I started them. So if you are one of the few who read this blog you might want to go back through November's blogs and make sure you have read them all. I would hate for you to miss some posts...especially some of the sweet pictures of Kadence etc. 


DANCE AWAY

Emma Klaire started taking ballet/gymnastics this fall. She took at the wellness center from Mrs. Rita. Mrs. Rita is who taught my siblings and I, and she talk Ella Kate before she went to where she is now.

These pictures are priceless :)







I just love this expression. She is really listening to Mrs. Rita.






So until next time...........find Joy!

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Well....I did it again. I have waited a whole month and a few days to pick up my blogging. I always intend to do better....life seems to get in the way. Oh well.

 We have done a lot of living in the last month. Today was a fun family day. Norman, the girls and I went to Tupelo for a couple of appointments and then found time and our nerves (Just Kidding) to head to Chuck E. Cheese. The girls had lots of fun as did we.





All worn out!




I am going to go back and finish my Thanksgiving posts and then go from there. Lots of good pictures and sharing of memories that were made soon!

So until next time................I hope you find much JOY!

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!



Happy Thanksgiving from us!
(Ella Kate really is very thankful today! Ha! The sun was super bright.)

We are so thankful for everything we have. We have an awesome God and church family, amazing family and friends, and health.We couldn't ask for more. We went to Uncle Larry's and Aunt Bobbie's for our annual Thanksgiving lunch. It is always fun to get together with our extended family. We really missed Nana, Uncle William, Kk, Jc, and of course precious Kadence. Nana is in New York with William.


 Pepaw and D with the girls. Memaw was there, but I somehow didn't get a picture.


                                               The girls with Gran Gran :)
