Indians & Turkeys

Julia had her first Thanksgiving program today at Miss Julie's. It was precious. She was precious. Everything was precious. She did such a good job, I was one proud mama!

Charlotte was there too, but she wasn't too interested in taking a picture. Julia kept taking her headband off and saying "Look Cha Cha, it's just me, Julia".

My beautiful Riding Horse

Practicing her bow and arrow skills like any good Indian

We got out of school this afternoon for a whole week! Woo hoo!  The girls and I celebrated with some outside playtime while we waited on Daddy to get home. Their favorite part was the wagon ride. I hope this beautiful weather sticks around and we get lots of outside playtime in this week!

Turkeys & Horses

Charlotte had her Thanksgiving party at school today. They were all so cute in their turkey hats. Mrs. Zoey told me that she was insistent that she cut her turkey legs, hence the two different length legs.

Daddy even got to come for a few minutes

I should have gotten a picture with her before the food was put in front of her!

Silly girl!

Charlotte and Ms. Zoey. 

Charlotte loves Ms. Zoey, they spend every Sunday, Tuesday, & Thursday mornings and Wednesday evenings together. We said at the beginning of the year they would either love each other or be sick of each other and I know that Charlotte loves Ms. Zoey! 

This afternoon was Julia's favorite day of the week, horseback riding lesson day.

Pure. Joy.

Learning how to post, she looks so professoinal ;) 

When Julia first started taking riding lessons in September Charlotte wasn't too fond of the horses. She didn't want to get too close and most certainly wouldn't pet them. Now, she has decided that she loves the horses almost as much as her sister, especially Lilly!

Julia's Thanksgiving Day program and one more day of work are all that stand between us and a week off! I. Can't. Wait.

Cops & Puppies

The girls were playing "cop and doggy" this evening. Can you guess who is the cop and who is the doggy?

 

Tacky Tourist

Charlotte loves to dress up. The fairy wings and crown that Nan and Big sent in their Halloween box have been an big hit. I couldn't stop laughing when she walked into the living room like this. She looked just like a tacky tourist! It was a welcome distraction from this painful Auburn/Georgia game.

Big Hero 6

Julia has been asking to see Big Hero 6 for weeks, even though is just came out. She's seen all the games and toys advertised and known exactly what they were so this afternoon we loaded up and headed to Dothan to the movies. 

Charlotte's hair falls in her eyes even when it's pulled back on the side so I tried a pony tail today. Of course her first pony tail called for pictures.

This my friends, is what a typical picture looks like at our house!

The movie ended up being a lot cuter than I thought it would be. I didn't expect to like it very much, but I did and the girls loved it.

 On our way home we passed Krispy Kreme. The "Hot Now" sign was on so we HAD to stop. The girls had never been - they were very impressed! :)

 

(Thanks to the "Hot Now" sign for the red glow in all the pictures!)
