Daddy comes home today. . .yippee! To pass the time this morning we did some arts and crafts. Madeline made an elaborate turkey out of toilet paper rolls while Ryan made a hand turkey with an eye and smiley face. I'm realizing that at this age Mommy does most of the work when we do these projects, but I love it and it's fun watching the kids enjoy their accomplishment. If you look closely at the picture, you will see green all around Ryan's mouth and cheeks. Coloring the hand turkey was not enough! He thought that he also needed a festive look!
We have an eventful couple days ahead of us. Tonight we watch the Brister boys. . .Jason, Chase and little Lance. We are excited, but know it is going to be a blur of activity (Roxann watched Maddie and Ryan for our anniversary and they are celebrating their anniversary tonight). I have a feeling we will spend a lot of time in the basement throwing balls and kicking things and just having fun. Tomorrow morning we head to Raleigh's Christmas parade. The temperature is supposed to be in the 30's!!! Family bonding at its best. And tomorrow night we head to the mall for the tree lighting. The Wells' love activity and being with people.
We just returned from a trip to the Morrisville playground. My favorite part of taking the kids to the playground is watching them play together. They have so much fun chasing each other and colliding as they slide down the slide. There is nothing more heart warming than hearing them laugh with each other. Of course, our time was cut short when Madeline took a stick swing to the face. It was an accident, but still not good! I wonder who will end up with more scars at the end of the their childhood. . .Ryan because he is crazy or Madeline because she is often the recipient of Ryan's crazies. :)
This picture was taken from the waist up because the little guy is starting to sit on the potty. :)

Ryan looks so grown up! Nathan and I both couldn't believe how old he looks in that pic! So sweet!
This was wonderful!! Not only the Birthday, but Thanksgiving also. I am curious about the pie.
Was really surprised about the kissing. Did not think we'd have to think about that for a number of years. Can't wait to have Grandpa Steve look at the site.
