Being Thankful

Each year we are so happy to get to spend the holidays with our family members.  This year for Thanksgiving, we were at Aunt Lorna and Uncle Freddie's house.  It was great to see them since it has been a long time.  My cousin and his wife and their children were able to come this year too along with my Grandpa Anderson.  We had a great time!  Here's some of the proof...

What a wonderful Thanksgiving!  Thanks for having us, Aunt Lorna and Uncle Freddie!

Diva!

What can I say... My daughter is a diva!  She was getting ready to go to her dance class on Wednesday night and she decided that she wanted to wear her red headband and red shoes along with her leotard and skirt.  I obliged and thought she looked so cute that I would have to get some pictures.  This is the way she wanted me to take her picture...  I did not pose her...

 There are more of those, but this one was definitely the cutest of them. So then I took some regular ones...

I do have to admit though...  her own pose was the cutest picture of them all.

All-Star Jake

Jake played his first All-Star games this week.  They played on Nov. 2 against Western Boone and won 30-0.  They played again on Thursday and lost to Noblesville 0-6.  Today they had the first game in the official tournament and faced Westfield.  We won 6-0!  We will now play again on Wednesday evening but we don't know yet who we will face.  Here are some pictures of the exciting season!
