A week with the in-laws

With the Thanksgiving holidays Nate was able to be home and his parents came out to spend it with us.  Where do i start.... the week flew by and it was so nice to have family around! I really hate being so far from our loved ones especially around holiday times! Grammie got to see Claudia go to swim lessons and toddler gym! We didn't plan anything for the week just spent quality family time except for a little shopping trip to a few stores:-) We ventured out to eat at the Olive Garden and lets just say poor Rex will never be dinning out! Claudia just can't sit still she wants to constantly be on the move so no more eating out for us! Its just to stressful and not enjoyable trying to see how fast you can eat and leave!
Claudia loves her Papaw! She wanted to be with him all the time and when we'd ask whose your favorite her response was papaw, it was so cute!  And lets not forget Britain was usually right there with Papaw too! I'm so glad Claudia took to both grammie and papaw, she's changed so much and becoming a little social butterfly!



Helping Papaw with his paper work

Thanksgiving was a fun day of cooking, eating and watching football! I attempted the May hot apples again this year, still not the same but its better then last year! One of these years i will perfect them!


I found out I'm going to be an Aunt again! Congratulations Meg, Cory, and Brody Puckett! We are so excited for you all!
Brody is going to be a big brother!


We found out that Claudia LOVES Elmo aka "Melmo" She wants to watch elmo all the time and is constantly running around saying "melmo"So I guess i'll be running out to the store to get a plush Elmo for Christmas!
 The stockings are hung, the lights up on the house, the tree is up and all the decorating is done! Its so nice to know its all up! My christmas shopping is all done, just need to mail the gifts out to family! and buy that elmo doll!
Grammie and Papaw put the tree up and that was hilarious to watch!

lots of helpers!

Yeah our fireplace is all decorated!

Our first fake tree....kind of sad but so much easier!

Cookies are ready for santa!
