It Snowed!

Thanksgiving 2013

 Sweet Georgia had Nanue curl her hair for Thanksgiving.  It is getting so long!

Darby was not in the mood for a family picture but we tried.  Here is one without her.

And here she is included.

 Nanue and Mera.  We let them start early in our house witht he wine.  Kidding. it's apple juice.

 Me and my Mama!

 Here is Darby trying to make up for her bad attitude in regards to the other family photo.

 Analiese finally has enough hair for pig tails!

 Matt and his Dad.

 Byrne grew a mustache for no shave November.  Pretty pimp.

 Aunt Bob abusing her nieces.

The next dy we put up and decorated the Christmas tree.  Here is Mera double-fisting the ornaments. 

 Darby has gotten into taking picures so a few of the above and these last two are hers.  

November in a Blink

This little hunter/gatherer is really fun to live with lately.  I never know what I will find her sleeping with.  Here she has a little plastic rhino and the kitty cat Nanue gave her while we were in Amarillo.

 We celebrated Daddy's birthday at Mary's house with pimento cheese and cake.  

The school district G goes to school in has wonderful services for kids who are Deaf and HOH.  One of the fun things they do is throw an ice cream sundae party for the kids whole class once a year if the kids wear their hearing aids for 20 consecutive days.  This encourages the kids in the class to support Georgia and make the hearing aids a positive for all of the kids. Here is Georgia with her ice cream sundae that she earned and as of this day has never gone a day at school without her ears.  She really is amazing.

The Doctor, The Bat and Pippi

Oh my we had an awesome Halloween!  Darby had been talking about being a bat for months so I made it happen.  Her own grandmother did not recognize her.  

 Mera saw a Dr. costume at Sams and got stuck on it.  We have never actually watch Dr. McStuffins but we did wear the costume.

 And Georgia wanted to be Pippi.  She and I had a blast at the thrift stores looking for the perfect costume parts.

 Uncle Matt as his usual orange Wizard.

Spanish Fest 2013

Every year the kids school puts on a performance of songs in the immersion language.  This was Darby's first year and she did great.  This is her and her little dance partner.

This is one of her friends she went to Pre-K with.  

Georgia was old enough this year to really get into it and memorize the dance.
