Christmas cookies

This year we added one more helper to the kitchen. Farrow Kate was very excited to join in on the fun. This was just our first batch. Papa T ate all of them, so we have many more to go!

Thanksgiving at Tara's

Tara and Patrick and family moved in the week of Thanksgiving and still managed to host it at their house. I didn't get many pictures once everyone got there, but we had all our family and the Nations family and great food.

Dress Up at Gramsby's

The girls and I spent the whole week of Thanksgiving in Jackson. We got to do lots of visiting and playing. This is one night when the girls raided Gramsby's "dress up" box.

County Fair for Emma Claire

A little looking back on Emma Claire's first birthday

This one was around 9 months. I didn't have a digital camera before then, so her birth is not on the computer.

Emma Claire turned four in style. She had a "County Fair" style birthday party. We had tons of great kiddos having a great time.

This is Emma Claire with "all her Hannahs" (from left Hannah Sanders, Hannah Gray, Hannah Harmon, and Hannah Sullivan)

Thank you Kelli Phipps for the adorable and delicious cake.

corn dogs, and cake and lots of fun.

Black-eyed Bug

The Bug was very proud of the shiner she acquired. No one would be surprised to know that Emma Claire tripped over a rocking chair and fell into a table. I guess it runs in the family.

Pumpkini Carving

Once again, Jim carved a pumpkin with the girls. This time they both participated.

Their favorite part was digging the "goo" out.

What a Hairdo!

We woke up to this Sunday morning. No, I didn't do anything to it. That must have been some good sleep!
