We Give Thanks!

Every November we pull out our little silver tree to add our Thanksgiving leaves to. It's so good to pause and reflect on what God has done in our lives. 

Be Joyful always. Pray Continually.
Give thanks in all Circumstances,
for THIS IS GODS WILL for you!
I Thess 5:16-18

a moment in time...

I uploaded these pictures some time ago and now I'm finally getting to write about them
It seems like a little "moment in time" that in some ways feels like it was a very LONG time ago
Mom and Dad thanks so much for sacrificing a nights worth of sleep to get here so we could take this little trip together. So rare to get you all to myself in this fun big family of ours.
Grammy and Kacey at the ball game
As you can see Breck is really into this ball game!

...and he even enjoyed the concert more!!
We had to capture him with the cowboys he liked -- too bad he doesn't know he's in the picture! 

This was amazing! Some man carved this and when I was at the store I  heard how many hours it took him but that tidbit of info has failed me now.  
Shopping at the Grand Village
It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas.... and its only November 13th!

Such a fun treat to share this weekend with my parents!

halloween fun for those still young at heart

Big Chief and Pocahantus threw a real nice party and they even were thoughtful and invited the old folks to join them
Siblings minus one -- Nina your presence was greatly missed and I have no doubt that if you were here you would have added some class to this group of people!! 

can someone tell me what's wrong with that old lady?? I don't think she can see or stand up! OR maybe that dead man walking behind her is about to give her a heart attack

Happy Birthday to Big Chief... fortune was good to him this night, he got to pose with the prettiest girls in town

the ladies of the night

...and the MEN folk  - Mr Top Gun is strutin his stuff?!

now wasn't that right nice they invited us, we are barely standing up, but we came to party because we are still young at heart!

the hosts of the evening

eeks the dead man talking to an almost dead man

hostess of the mostest stirring her brew!  I wish I would have captured more of her marvelous decor.. Hopefully she did and will post so you can see how all out she went! 

now aren't they cute! miss flutterfly and her top gun man

I picked out my best house slippers for this occasion

who is this guy?!  Jeffrey wasn't sure who he was when he walked into the room

I guess pocahontus likes to bow down to her big chief

Zombie Man! SO happy he walked out of the grave to come to this party

Mr Top Gun is trying to impress the old man with his F16 stories

Toilet paper game

the kids are armed and ready! Still waiting on the cousins to arrive
why is this picture out of order.. oh well you can appreciate it where it is because I can't make it move!

Yay... the cousins have arrived!

my snapshot was a little late since I threw and then shot my picture.. Jeff said he got nailed in the head a couple times... probably from those cute little people who were sitting behind us. It was such a treat to have John and Katy there too!

Coach John Sheehy was honored that night too since the court is named after him - warms my heart! 

Fall for Fun

Fun fall Activities.
Breck posing with his pumpkin that he designed with an OU nose!
Somehow I missed kacey with her pumpkin..what a bad mommy.. I must have gotten distracted!  hmmm!! I'm going to have to do that before he wilts! Much to my surprise the kids began carving their pumpkins while I was on the phone and as I walked into the kitchen I found them both with knives stabbed into their pumpkins...eeeks.. glad there was not blood!
Scary Hair night at Team Kids


Kacey has spiders all over in her hair.. I think she had the scariest hair that night!

Jeff ran the 5K, the kids and I participated in the one mile fun run and then we all had great fun running in the rubber chicken family relay -- in honor of living in chicken country! 


Breck's goal was to keep the title as the first runner to complete the one mile fun run in his age bracket.. he did super but came in second
