Thanksgiving Feast

On Wednesday Auntie A and I joined Benjamin and his class for their Thanksgiving Feast.  It was so cute to see Benjamin interact with all of his friends that we hear so much about at home. 

And then we headed to the airport that afternoon to catch our flight to Florida.  Benjamin and I had some fun in the airport with a few selfies to pass the time. 

 

And desipite an hour and a half delay Benjamin did awesome!  We were well prepared with lots of new stickers, books, toys and snacks and this super fun Olaf spin sucker that Benjamin spotted in the airport.  It was a long day for all of us and we were all super excited to finally get to Florida around 9:30.

 

Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving!  We hope you are spending it with those you love most.  We miss being with our Texas family but are so thankful to be spending it in Miami with Matt's family that we don't get to see as often.

 

Happy Thanksgiving!  We hope you get to indulge in all of your favorite foods and enjoy stretchy pants, football, and most of all those you love most!

Vroom Vroom

After a lot of rain last week the weather has been just perfect for playing outside.  So that is just what we have been doing in the evenings. 

Birthday Lunch

We had a fun and busy weekend as usual.  Saturday night Dede and I went and saw Dirty Dancing at the Hobby Center and it was amazing.  No matter how many times I have seen the movie, the music and dancing never gets old.  And Matt and Benjamin spent the evening together at Gumbo Bar and watching college football.  Sunday we celebrated my birthday a little early with lunch in Galveston with MawMaw and Poppy.  We ate lunch at the Moody Gardens hotel and got to enjoy the pretty Christmas decorations.  Speaking of Christmas decorations, we started to put ours up over the weekend as well since we are leaving for Miami Wednesday for Thanksgiving. 

I was really hoping for a Christmas card picture but as you can see I ended up with a bunch of funny ones.  Picture taking was just not in the cards for us on Sunday.  Christmas card picture or no picture it was a great start to my Birthday spent with those I love most.  

Bedtime Sillies

Benjamin has the cutest and silliest personality and I just love it.  My next post is going to be an update on all of the hilarious things that he is doing and saying these days but for now just some silliness before bed.

I hope you all have  a great weekend!  This Mama is going to see Dirty Dancing at The Hobby Center Saturday night and I can't wait to have the time of my life! =)

Hair Cut

Benjamin has been needing a hair cut for a while so after school yesterday that is exactly where we went. 

Enjoying a sucker while we wait.

Weekend Recap

We had a busy and cold weekend!  Saturday Benjamin and I went to MawMaw's to visit and Matt went to his friend Aaron's house to brew an all grain batch of beer.  Aaron and his wife brew a ton of beer and Matt brought home all different kinds-I'm looking forward to a few of those come May! =)  Whilea we were at MawMaw's we went over to her cousin Gloria's house so Benjamin could see the chickens she has.  He loved them!  He also enjoyed eating a gingerbread cookie that MawMaw gave him that was about the size of his head!  I was surprised he liked it so much since it was not very sweet and was very gingery but that didn't stop him from eating the whole cookie!  After Benjamin's cookie MawMaw used a handi vac to clean up the trail of crumbs Benjamin had created and he thought it was the neatest thing so he had to give it a try...

Silly boy!  If only vacuuming were that fun for Mama!  Sunday Benjamin got to spend the day with Matt while I went to the Nutcracker Market with Petra and Aunt Matt.  And those 2 had quite the boys day!  They had breakfast at Taco Cabana followed by an outing to Academy which consisted of new shoes for Benjamin and a crab trap for Matt-that should be interesting-followed by lunch at Gumbo Bar and an afternoon of playing trucks around the house.  Love my boys and I sure did miss them Sunday but I had a great time shopping and having lunch with Aunt Matt and Petra.
