Holiday Decorations

We had to buy a new tree this year due to a piece missing on the old tree.  The kids picked out one with colored lights.  Champ was a big help with decorating.  Princess likes to rearrange and play with the nutcrackers.  Kids love the lights off while the tree and snowmen are lit.  

Basketball

Saturday began with my sweet dad playing basketball at the gym with Champ.  He loved it!  Champ also got to be the ball boy at a U Indy game.  The guys played a great game and won.  More importantly, the team loves on Champ.  They include him on the bench, talk to him, and give him high fives.  Brennan McElroy, Champ's hero, asked Champ about his Thanksgiving and later gave him an autographed basketball.

Thanksgiving

I'm thankful for family!

I made turkeys for breakfast....yummy!

Champ loves to take care of little kids, especially if they aren't his sister.  Champ is helping cousin Parker here.

Princess got presents from Aunt Heather and Uncle Matt.  

I tried to make a turkey out of fruit.

Both kids wanted to take care of Parker.

Princess enjoyed time with her only girl cousin.

Thanks Papaw for the new part trick.

4th Birthday Party for Princess

We began our party weekend by playing ball at the gym with the neighbors.

While we were running party errands, the kids made a craft at Michaels.

We had a great Barbie party for Princess.  Champ was a great helper!  The kids watched some TV, ate snacks, opened presents, played Barbies, and played hide and go seek.
