They liked it! They really, really liked it!!

Guys, it was the first time that my kids actually enjoyed, like full out "this is so fun"enjoyed, the Christmas parade we go to every year with the Kenneys!  All the years we have gone in the past, (well the three years we have gone) neither kid has really loved being there.  They were either to small to have any sort of opinion, may not have even been awake, or were frightened of the loud noises and fire trucks that go by.  

But not this year!  I didn't have to hold anyone screaming!  Cam ran around, picking up all the candy that was thrown to him, Avery waved at everyone passing and no one even got hypothermia from the freezing cold temperature!!  It was a success. Like, a really fun and enjoyable success! 

Bryce and Avery, BFF's!
Ashlyn and Cameron, friends since birth!

Pre-school Happenings

Cam had some fun stuff going on at school this past week.  He had the Fall Festival that families were invited to.  It was super cute and Cameron was super excited to be able to show Mimi, Avery and I all the fun stuff that was planned.  
We frosted pumpkin shaped cookies..
 And ate them :)
We made these cute little magnets.
 We put faces on pumpkins with stickers.
And posed for pictures :)

We did other things to, like got our faces painted, played some games and did an indoor hay ride.  It was a lot of fun, if you couldn't tell!  

A few days later, my little Native American came home like this:


Cute, right??  They decorated the front and made up names for themselves.  Cameron was "Fast Locomotive" (?) and Ryan was "Big Horse".  I can't get to many details out of Cam when he gets home about school, so I have no idea what he actually learned about Thanksgiving, but regardless, I think he likes the holiday!!

Now, on to eating some Turkey! Have a great Thanksgiving everyone!!

It has finally happened

My beloved MacBook Pro went to Apple heaven. It had been acting weird lately, so I thought it would be a good idea to make sure everything, and i mean EVERYTHING, was backed up on my external hard drive before something bad happened. So with all my pictures, it literally took four full days to back up! (Is that weird?) After it was done, I double checked it and turned it off to let it rest. And poor Mac never woke up again :( I went into the Genius Bar at the Apple Store to have it checked out and the man told me it was probably due to the fact that good old hubs bought a third party battery, and that's not a good thing. I will roll over and DIE if my pictures are missing! You think I'm joking...

So, there you have it. I have written about ten blogs out on my Blogger app, but haven't posted them because my pictures can't be processed. So once I'm up and running again, I'm going to be back in October. Ugh. But don't fret (cause I'm sure you totally are!) I know what I'm getting and should be picking it up on Friday, that is Black Friday. Yikes! And yes, it's another Mac. I'm in love.. :)
