Pictures with Santa

Jazz Viewing Day

Every year you get two days (one in the spring and one in the fall) when you can watch dance class. It is a real treat! Here is Madi doing a few stretches and I am not sure what else. She loves it though and that is what counts. She is so excited about getting to dance in the Christmas parade this year. I don't think that she realizes just how tired she will be.

Game Day!

The last two Clemson games have been away games so we have watched them at Al and Jennifer's house on the projection screen. We have had a great time complete with low country boil, ribs, wings and much, much more. Here are a few pictures of all of the kids.

Slide Show

The Pink Lady

Today is fifties day at Madi's school. So we curled her hair last night in sponge rollers and this morning combed it out to make a nice pouf ponytail on top of her head. Thanks to the O'Brians for the Pink Ladies jacket. She looked so cute. This is taken with my phone but I will have better pictures from school later.

First Sucker

Here is Grant with his first sucker. He sure loved it thanks to Aunt RA!

The Family

We are so lucky that when mom re-married we got a great extended family as part of the deal. Here are all of the grand kids in their Halloween outfits at the church fall festival. Megan is Super girl, Grant is the turtle, Madi the cowgirl, Olivia the snail and Isabella the cat.

Bathtub Fun!

Here a few of my favorite pictures of Grant in the tub. He just loves bath time and would stay in the tub until he is completely wrinkled. He even likes to get on his belly and do the "Michael Phelps!"

Grant and Olivia love taking a bath together. Here they are at our house. It always seems like a great idea but then we remember how wet we end up when they are done splashing and wander why we keep re-trying this.

Grant and Olivia

Grant and Olivia continue to be partners in crime and now that they are both crawling or scooting, they are double trouble. Here are a few pictures from this week. Aunt Debby was in town and thought that it would be fun to keep them together. After a few hours she changed her mind. Finally, Gan Gan and Deedee kept them on Friday night while everyone was at the ballgame and so here they are in their Jammie's. Enjoy!

Grant can sit forever and play.
The cutest boy ever!

Night night, Grant.

Night night, Olivia.

Deedee and the two wild kids!

Future Cheerleader

On Halloween night Seneca and West-Oak played each other in football. Because I had to be with my girls at the game early Madi trick-or-treated with her best friend Gracie. Both of the girls had cheerleading outfits for their favorite teams. Unfortunately our team lost, but they had fun and looked pretty darn cute. Who knows, one day you may see this picture again.

Ready, OK!

Halloween Parade

Madi's kindergarten class had a Halloween Parade last week. Unfortunately, I couldn't leave school to attend so Aunt Sara, Olivia and Aunt Debby went and took pictures for me. Here are a few of Madi as a cowgirl, Madi with her teacher Mrs. Christine, Madi with the scarecrows they made and Olivia enjoying school.
