Tamales!

We had a great Thanksgiving weekend! Had dinner with friends, my mom and Donn came for a viisit! We got an early Christmas present!! A CAMERA!!! So now our blog will be more exciting!!

Friday afternoon my mom and I set out to make Tamales! She brought everything with them and taught me how to make them! We also made enchiladas, rice and beans in the crock pot! It was quite the meal.

Squirrel Day!

So this week Zachary noticed that on the calender there was a picture of a squirrel on Thanksgiving Day, and asked if that day was Squirrel Day? So I told him it was Thanksgiving Day and he said no it's not, it's Squirrel Day!

All week he has been asking if it is Squirrel Day yet. This morning he was excited to find out that tomorrow is Squirrel Day! We will still be eating Turkey no squirrel will be served!!! Have a fun Thanksgiving I mean Squirrel Day!!

Queen?

So we were driving in the car yesterday afternoon on our way to Sonic for Happy Hour! And from the back seat I hear Madison singing. At first I didn't think anything of it, but then I listened a little closer and this is what I heard,

"I see a silhouetto of a man Scaramouch, Scaramouch, will you do the Fandango......"

I am not even joking! I almost died of laughter! I asked her where she had heard that, because it's not like we listen to a lot of Queen. And she proudly claimed that,"I heard it on The Singing Bee on CMT!" Hilarious!!!So of course I asked her so sing it again and she did.

So later that night Travis found the video on You Tube and she watched that part of the song twice. She woke up this morning adding,

"Thunderbolt and lightning, very, very frightening me (Galileo) Galileo (Galileo) Galileo, Galileo Figaro...."
(with her own version of voice inflection!)

What am I going to do with her! Everyday she says or does something funny! What would we do without her!

Family Picture 2009

Our friend Pyper willingly took some family pictures for us this past weekend. She did a great job even though she thought she didn't! The kids were well behaved, and it was beautiful weather! Overcast and cold!! So here are a few of what she took.
