Thanksgiving 2011

We had the wonderful opportunity of hosting Thanksgiving at our house this year. We were so grateful to be able to it for our wonderful family and show them how much they mean to us. Family is so extremely important to us and we feel like this holiday season has been so incredible for our little boy and we want to say thank you so much for being a part of our lives.

As for thanksgiving day everyone pitched in bringing dishes for the big meal. Thanks everyone for all the delicious food the day would not be ccmplete without each and every one of you. We had games and also made some fun christmas crafts. These type of things are my very favorite things to do for those I care about; thank you for filling our home with so much love

So very tired after a long day of partying as you can see just looking at his face!l

I had to post this picture I took a couple days before thanksgiving Every time I look at my camera I laugh at the funny face he is making. He is so hilarious!!

Halloween and Simon Boy

Me and Shack a Bee right before we went trick or treating with the carpenters. I know what your thinking what a scary dragon!!!
Mommy Daddy and Scary Dragon!!!!!
With the cousins! Rylie was a Rock star vampire, Kynlee was a dalmation, and my favorite was Bryson as a dead Tony Romo! Can you tell we are not cowboy fans?
Hangin with Grandma and Grandpa Yates after enjoying some hot chocolate. Look at that bigg belly that dragon has after us discovering his love for donuts. His love for food he gets from his mother. Which may be the only thing he has from me, sorry buddy.
This picture is a perfect description of a proud Grandpa. Everyone I have shown this to agrees with me.
Getting kisses from Great Grandma Rigby. he loves getting kisses!
Sweet Ky leaned in to give him a kiss and he decided he wanted to check out her ear and hair.
Getting some halloween loves from aunt Nat!
With aunt Kristin. Caught him yawning in this one he was completely exhausted by the end of the night and sick of being in his hot costume. Thanks all the family for making Shakobe 's first Halloween so memeroble. We had a blast and were so grateful to spend time with everyone the passed two weeks for all the activities!!
