Carys' Class Christmas Party!

Carys had her class family Christmas party Thurs. the 17th. Madison and I had so much fun going to 6 centers with games, treats, and fun Christmas activities to make. We just love her class!

Carys' 1st Piano Recital

Carys had her 1st piano recital on Dec.5, 2009 We love her piano teacher Jackie Sharp! She played Jolly old St. Nicolas and did a wonderful job. She is a natural performer. We are so proud of her, thanks to Nana and Tata for buying a years worth of lessons for her 5th Birthday present. What a great gift!

Thanksgiving 2009

This Thanksgiving we started the day with Cinnamon Rolls made by mommy and we watched the Macy's day parade. Daddy played in a couple turkey bowls and thankfully made it home alive to enjoy some turkey. We ate tons of food at my moms this year and enjoyed the rest of the day playing card games and checking all the ads for good deals for Black Friday. We had a great day and are thankful for all of our many blessings!

Extra Extra Read all about it!

So, I have this very talented friend Christina (the cute brunette) aka: super mama, tiny :) She has twins and triplets, and can make motherhood look blissful, delightful, and simply fabulous. I don't know how she does it, but I'm still taking notes how to be like tiny.....She is a rock star! She is one positive little lady. Aside from managing her (FullHouse) she creates the most amazing hair accessories. She has launched her shop TODAY and I wanted to spread the word before they are all snatched up by some very lucky ladies!
So...... Check MADAME PUMPHREY out and enjoy! Pick one up quick.....they won't last long. Happy Shopping!!!!
