Thanksgiving!

This year, we had a wonderful Thanksgiving! Bryan's family came to visit, and we had tons of food!

This was the best picture I could get of the kiddos! Even though Jack's not looking at the camera, I love his smile! Doctor Daddy brought home a syringe to inject the turkey with buttery goodness!

A "thankful" placemat that Sarah made for me at school.

I printed off a list of what each person was thankful for, then cut them out, and Sarah rolled them up in crescent rolls.

She's such a great helper!

Sarah really wanted a drumstick--then she only ate about half of it!

For dessert, Sarah and I made a pecan pie

and mini pumpkin cream pies in mason jars! Jackson even helped me make the homemade whipped cream to top them!

Soccer!

Yesterday was Sarah's last soccer game of the season. My dad even made the 5 hour drive to see Sarah in action, which meant the world to her! Our team unfortunately lost, but they played a great game! We're already looking forward to the spring season!

I don't know why the "snack parents" this week brought Cheetos, but whatever!

Thank You Gift

Tonight is Sarah's last soccer practice for the season, so we had to get Coach Rob a gift. Sarah came up with the idea all by herself--write little notes onto a soccer ball. Love it!!

I think it turned out really cute!

Soccer!

Today was Sarah's second to last soccer game! The weather was perfect, and the girls played a great game! Sarah was team captain and caught the ball twice when she was goalie! They won 1-0!

Big J laid back! The girls had a party afterwards to celebrate the great season! Coach Rob talking about Sarah while giving her a trophy. He was so sweet and said that she was a great player who listened well, always had a smile, and did anything he asked!

We are so proud of her!

Sarah with her awesome Coach!

He said Sarah was a "coach's dream!"

We can't wait to be on his team again in the spring!

Jack in the Box!

Yesterday, during naptime, I got one of Sarah's old toys out for Jackson. It's a Jack in the box, and now, it's his new favorite toy!

We still have to help him with this part... ...but he loves playing with Jack once he's popped up!

I love his smile here!

Trying to shove him back in!!

The Best of Friends!

Bryan and I love watching our little munchkins playing together! And we hope they'll always be the best of friends!

Lollipop

A lollipop works wonders when you're waiting at the doctor's office!

Soccer!

Early this morning, the kids and I got got bundled up to go to Sarah's soccer game. Bryan unfortunately had to work, so I sent him some pictures on his phone! The game ended in a 0-0 tie, but Sarah did a great job--especially when she was goalie!

Jackson in his big coat!

When we left the house, it was 36 degrees! Sarah got so hot while she was playing, she took her long-sleeved undershirt off! As always, she had a great time!

A Haircut

Our kids were both blessed with an insane amount of hair when they were born. Because of that, we've been cutting Jackson's hair for at least a year now.

Today was high time for another trim! The epitome of bed head!

So, after putting Jack in his chair, I wet his hair and gave him some chocolate chips to nibble on.

I'm not above bribing my kids!

Much better!

Definitely much better!
