Meeting St. Nick








Well meeting St. Nick was a success. I talked to Gavin all day about sitting on Santas lap, not crying and Santa would give him a piece of candy. All he would say in return was "Sinta Scary." So needless to say I did not get my hopes up. But, as soon has he got on Santa's lap, he turn to him and said, "candy please." He was one happy boy. Kyle and Holly came to enjoy the fun. It was good catching up with them.

Childrens parade/ Half Marathon

Our support Team- Corby ran the last 2 miles with each of us We did it!!!!!!


The first weekend in December Gavin and I went down to Dallas for the Childrens Parade and for mom and I to run in the White Rock Half Marathon. It was my first one, and I was so excited. We trained our butts off. Well actually my butt didn't change that much, but it was a hard 12 week training. :) Gavin loved the Parade and I really enjoyed running in the half. It was such an awesome experience to do with my mom. I made it in 2 hours 48 mins. My goal was 2 hr 45 mins, and with the hills we had, I was pumped. I'm ready to sign up for my next one. It took a couple of days to recover but so worth it.

Before the race at 5:30 in the morning. Yuck



Gavin loved Yogi Bear

"Hi Papa"

Thanksgiving
















We had such a great Thanksgiving in New Mexico. Thanksgiving was with my family this year and everyone came down from utah/idaho. We had fun eating, hiking, long walks, playing football, white sands kick ball, hot tubing, games, eating some more and tons of laughing. It was a blast. I'm waiting on some pic katie took with her nice camera, but here are a few. All the cousins had so much fun together. What a cute bunch!!!

Halloween

High school reunion




Trying to get a family picture. Key word "Trying"


We had a great Halloween weekend. It was super busy. We went to the pumpkin patch, trunk or treat, and then trick or treating on Sunday. Plus throw in my ten year high school reunion and it was crazy. Gavin was not the biggest fan of his costume but he wore it. He loved the candy and although he knows how to say "trick or treat" he was a little too nervous walking up to strangers doors. He just wanted the candy and was out of there. Keisha came in for our high school reunion and it was so much fun having her around. It was like we were back in high school goofy as ever. Lots of wonderful talks, food, and primping. I miss living so close to her.

Halloween Fun

I'm all about dressing up for each holiday. I love getting Gavin cute outfits and pj's for the upcoming holidays. He already have his Thanksgiving pj's and a couple of Christmas ones. I mean whats cuter than holiday clothing?
On Friday we had another play group and the kids could wear their Halloween costumes. Gavin is not a big fan of his lion costume this year. I will be lucky if I can get a few pictures before he rips off his lion mane. Although we are working on him getting use to it, I didn't want the fight, so I put him in his Halloween shirt. It says,"My mummy is awesome." It was 2 dollars at crazy eight. I love that store. Then on Saturday we had a birthday party. Gavin was playing on our balcony before we left and I couldn't help but get a few pictures in his overalls. Can't believe how big he is getting. He is turning into a little boy. Makes me sad.

Leaving for playgroup

I just love his shoes. Perfect for fall
Please mom stop with the pictures
