Thanksgiving Weekend

We all had a pretty low-key Thanksgiving, but we had some friends visit on Saturday. Sarah met Meri Margaret for the first time, and I think they were instant friends! Sarah did get a little possessive of toys (and me), but overall, I think she was intrigued with the "baby."










After everyone left, we decided to put up the Christmas tree! I never realized that about 95% of my ornaments are breakable. So, Eric headed to Walgreens for some "shatter-free" balls. Whoever came up with that was a genius...After Sarah tried to eat all of the cinnamon ornaments, she helped Eric hang her stocking on the mantle. What a helpful little elf!

Pretty Pumpkin

A photographer down the street from us takes fall pictures every year with a bunch of pumpkins. Sarah was not having any of it. She did not like the pumpkins. We must have all looked like fools, dancing around and singing, trying to get one smile from Sarah. I wish I had THAT on film. Anyway, we did manage to get a couple of pleasant faces. She can be so sweet!

Random Post

I found some pictures from a disposable camera we bought when our digital camera broke. As you can see, Sarah LOVES bath time! She would stay in there all night if she could! The others are from the MS State Fair. We didn't stay long because it was still 90 degrees outside and once Sarah saw the farm animals, nothing else held her attention. The picture of us is on the big ferris wheel. This is my favorite thing to do at the fair!

Busy Little Bees!

Whew! Life got busy! Between work, church, football season, and more work, I haven't made time to do anything fun! Needless to say, blogging fell by the wayside. Sarah is growing up so fast, and boy, does she already have a mind of her own! She only wants to do things her way, when she wants, and no one can convince her otherwise. I hear all toddlers are like that, but I didn't think that I would have to discipline so much, sooo soon!

Halloween has come and gone, and of course, Sarah was having one of her "days" when she did not want to cooperate, so our trick or treating consisted of standing on the front porch and taking pictures. We found out later that night (1am to be exact) that she was actually sick, so I guess it's a good thing that we didn't drag her all over the neighborhood. But what a pretty butterfly she made!
