Football and Thanksgiving

A few weekends ago we took the camper to Lake Bryan for a weekend of camping and football! We went up on Thursday so it was really nice to have all day Friday to relax and visit Texas A&M campus before a full day of tailgating on Saturday! The weather was perfect Fall weather and we had a great time!! The Ags beat Nebraska in the best football game I have EVER been to! It was SO FREAKIN LOUD!!! I couldn't even hear my voice when I would yell because EVERYONE was yelling, it was amazing! The view of everyone on their feet spinning their 12th Man towel was a site to see!! I love my Ags and that was an unbelievable game! It ended up being the largest crowd ever in Kyle Field and we also broke the record for highest student attendance in College Game Day history!! WHOOP!!!!

Keaton learning to catch a football! Eye on the ball!!!

Playing catch with daddy!



LOVE HIM!! My little angel!!

Little Miss Karter visiting all the other tailgaters!


We WON! Wrecking Crew, Wrecking Crew!!!

We stormed the field! =)

For Thanksgiving we went to Uncle Brad and Aunt Amanda's house and they did a GREAT job hosting for everyone! The food was delicious and the company was fabulous but I was a little stressed! Karter Lynn wouldn't go down for a nap so that meant stressed out mommy but oh well! Some days are easier than others and I guess we don't get to choose which days those will be! All in all we were together and have a lot of wonderful things to be thankful for!! We ended up leaving and watching the game at home so we could put Karter to sleep. Ags BTHO Texas...whoop!!! Another great game for the Aggies and now we're headed to the Cotton Bowl!!!





Gobble Gobble!!!
XOXO

Thanksgiving 09...Finally!

Me and my baby girl!!

Our kiss during one of the Ags touchdowns...WHOOP!!!!

I love these 2 munchkins soooo much!!


Daddy's pretty fond of them too!! =)

Thanksgiving was so great this year! It was the first year since we've been married that we didn't have more than one place to go in one day!! We spread it out this year which made it so much more relaxing! On Wed night we went to Kyle's brothers house for dinner with his family and had a wonderful time! The food was delicious and Keaton always loves playing with his 2 crazy uncles and his sweet Aunt Amanda!! =)


Then Thursday we had a relaxing morning with the kids before heading to my parents house for another delicious meal! Afterwards I played board games with my nieces and nephew and later watched the Ags take on the Longhorns. We ended up loosing, but it was a really great game!!!
I hope everyone else had a great Thanksgiving! I really am going to start trying to post things faster and more often. I've been such a blog slacker! Honestly it's amazing how much busier your life becomes when one tiny human being is added to the mix! ha! =) But I am totally getting the hang of juggling two kids now. (Now that I said that all hell is going to break loose and Karter's schedule will change completely I'm sure!) She has been SOOOO GOOD!! She takes naps throughout the day (on no real schedule yet) but then between 9 and 11 she'll go to sleep and sleep until about 8 or 9 in the morning!! It's so awesome considering Keaton didn't sleep through the night consistently until he was almost 2!!!
She is also smiling her beautiful toothless smile to us all the time and cooing at us which just makes my heart melt! Keaton is still doing great with her and loves her to pieces! He is still cracking us up and keeps me entertained daily! He seems really excited about Christmas this year so I'm anxious to see how he reacts to Santa considering last year he was terrified!!

Happy Thanksgiving!!

A lot of my blogger friends were doing 27 days of thanks where you post something you're thankful for each day leading up to Thanksgiving. I thought that was a great idea but knew I wouldn't stick with it because with a 2.5 year old and a 2 month old I just don't have much time these days! So instead I decided to have one post that lists 27 things I am thankful for!!

  2. My friends
