Maw-Maw made Michelle a very special blanket


All she has asked for is a camera and a bike. Maw-Maw and Paw-Paw gave here the camera for her birthday............one down!

Decorating Maw-Maw and Paw-Paw's tree


We really had a wonderful visit with my family for Thanksgiving. The trip was a bit rough for Chris. He was suffering from a horrible viral infection pretty much the whole time. We thought about staying home so he could rest and get better but on Wednesday morning he said there is no way he is not going to bring the girls to see their grandparents! So we loaded everyone up and headed to Slidell. The moment we arrived Michelle told Paw-Paw that she wanted to have a camp out and roast marshmallows. Ask and you shall receive.....not five minutes after she made her request Paw-Paw had the fire pit going and they were roasting marshmallows.

Thanksgiving day was very nice. Mom and dad cooked a wonderful feast and we visited with my family on my mom's side. The girls were able to play with their cousin Hailey. Those girls ran mad the entire day and enjoyed every minute of it! We also celebrated Michelle's 4th birthday with my family on Thanksgiving. She received wonderful gifts and for the first time let us sing Happy Birthday to her without pouting with her hands over her eyes like the past years.

The day before we left the girls helped Maw-Maw and Paw-Paw put up their tree and decorate it. Last year they had all the ornaments placed right in front one on top the other but this year they spread them out all around the tree (Michelle would place hers right along side of Megan's). So I guess you could say we all had a great visit and always wish it could be longer!
