thoughts

Some random thoughts/realizations I've had bumping around in my head this past week.

- giving thanks will always rememdy a bad attitude

- friends and loved ones that are willing to "babysit" your kids are worth their weight in GOLD

- never wear black pants when your child has a runny nose

- good intentions don't get you too far without actions!

october fun

It's crazy to think that November is cruising by so quickly.  I even started thinking of all we need to cook for our Thanksgiving meal last night.  So I guess I better go ahead and share what the end of October was like.  We had so much fun visiting the pumpkin patch.  They had tons of animals - Cooper got to ride his first mini horse and got a fistful of camel hair. 













Next we visited the zoo for the first time and now have a zoo membership. If anyone wants to go, let me know!  The giraffes were the highlight of the day for me.  Cooper and I got to feed one of the female giraffes some lettuce.







Last was Halloween.  Charlie Brown and a little lamb - what could be cuter?  They had more fun playing with the grass than showing off their costumes.  Julie is such a ham - never a bad picture.  Cooper on the other hand was a little more stand-offish.  No smiles!  Must be a guy thing.











Now we have lots to look forward to.  Thanksgiving in MS then down to the coast for more festivites in Orange Beach!  Yay!
