Look Who Got Older

Not only were we celebrating Thanksgiving last week, but we threw in a couple of birthday celebrations as well.
B turned 11 and G is now 8.
Here are a few pictures from the festivities.


These stilts were one of B's gifts & everybody had more fun with those things.

(When I say everybody, I mean everybody....even Uncle B & Daddy tried them out. Mommy may have given them a whirl herself - no photo proof though.)

The kids had a great time celebrating with family.

To everybody who helped them to feel special & loved on their special days....Thank You.

We have a wonderful family and are very blessed.

Oh sounds like a great time....Thanksgiving and Birthdays!!! I can't see any of the pictures except the one with the pink barbie. I would love to see the stilts!

OK the Barbie is not pink but looks like a beautiful white or silver gown on her.

I downloaded the pictures differently than normal & I could see them at first - let me investigate.
Sorry.

WOW...Happy Birthday x2, Happy Thanksgiving. You get all your gifting done around the holidays. I am sure for B/G it is a long stretch from now til next Thanksgiving. maybe you can do a Christmas in July or birthday in July...

YAY! I'm so proud that you bought your homeschool materials and I am SO here for you (for what little I can do). I started homeschooling my kids right before Christmas, 3 years ago. They weren't bothered at all by leaving school in the middle (in case you were worried about that). Anyway, e-mail me if you need anything. You're going to be great at it! And love it too!!

And Happy Birthdays all the way around. :) Ang
