Burrr It Was Cold!!

We survived our family pictures outside on Saturday. Remind me next year to schedule them for late September or early October. It was quite chilly, but we survived. Kayla was fabulous to work with and so good with Connor. She sent us a few pics.... I can't wait to see all of them.
On Saturday night we went to Matt and Kristen's house to watch the Texas Tech game. They taught Connor a 'Raider Power' cheer and to stick his guns up. I think PePaw and Aunt Renee will have something to say about that.

A week in review...

So last weekend we had the first Foxwood Thanksgiving. Most of you have heard either Eric or I talk about our neighbors, but we truly have the best! These are the neighbors that aren't only there for sugar or a can a tomato sauce, but these are the neighbors that buy Connor shoes because they thought he would look cute in them, bring Connor a Halloween treat bag because they will not be here for Halloween or even break one of their hockey sticks at their game and instead of throwing it away they cut it even shorted and fix it so Connor can have his very own hockey stick. Now you have already seen pics of NasCar, but not only did these neighbors buy Connor one shirt, but instead 2 shirts, a hat and his own NasCar car. WOW, aren't we lucky! So, we had everyone over for an early Thanksgiving. We have a lot to be thankful for!!!

On Tuesday we got to babysit Lanie!! Lanie and Connor are only 5 months apart and always have a blast together. I really don't think they sat down for more than 5 minutes. They even ate dinner on the run. Needless to say they went fast to sleep, exhausted!



Last night we went to the grocery store to get firewood to keep us toasty warm and decided we needed a lot more than that. Check out the pics of Connor pushing his own shopping cart.

Sorry forgot to post pictures of Connor's school Halloween party. Also, here are a few of the pictures from NasCar. Of course this is before the kid freaked out. In his defense I have never in my life heard anything so loud.

Before the race started with his headset on.Greg bought Little Man a NasCar shirt and car. Connor didn't put the car down the whole entire time. He even slept with it on the way home. Connor, Rachel and Grant at school. In the pumpkin patch!Daddy helping Connor with his snack. YUMMY!

SUPERMAN!!!

Superman was once again a hit! Connor had his Halloween party on Friday at school. Eric and I both got to join in on the fun. Superman and his friends were so cute all dressed up. Last year when Connor had holiday parties he would just whine and cry the whole time, YEAH that was my kid. He couldn't understand why I was there and we weren't going home. This year he sat and listened to the directions and interacted with everyone. He is all grown up! :) Ms. Emily and Ms. Daphne went all out with the decorations and even made a make-shift pumpkin patch for the kids. After they made their craft and dessert, they got to play in the pumpkin patch and dance. Superman LOVES to dance! On Friday we took Connor trick or treating around the neighbor with Ryan and the boys. He loved to walk up to the houses and say "Trick or Treat"! Eric and I were both impressed with how long he lasted, but you will see that after about an hour superman was tired of walking so Daddy had to help. I love this kid!!
