Well, the Christmas season has begun and what better way to kick it off than with a visit with everyone's favorite..SANTA (well, almost everyone....) Coop and Santa are smiling for the guy from the paper who took their pic. It was in the paper the next day. I live with a celebrity!

D. was up next. He was serious. No pleasantries with this boy, he had buisness to discuss...



Well. How do ya like that?? She flat out REFUSED to go sit on his lap. Once I finally coaxed her to sit with me on his lap, she wouldn't even look at him and would only whisper what she wanted! Remember last year? she sauntered up there o her own and sat right downand began to rattle of her wishes..not this year. Fickle little thing...





This would be when RA told Santa she wanted a baby. He thought she wanted a REAL one, I VERY QUICKLY told him that was absolutely NOT going to happen....







I was able to get the paper guy to snap a pic of all of us before we left. RA still is not very comfortable with the whole thing. Santa was so nice, but honestly, he needed a peppermint.

We went to the farm for part of the turkey day break. We got in some taget practice one day.

Big D got a few lessons on shooting a shotgun. The headphones are a MUST.



I think he enjoyed shooting it at the clay targets. He didn't seem to mind the "kick".





Sister enjoyed her headphones too... looking a little like Princess Leia.. Cooper was not interested in shooting so he was milling around the barn.

Two of my three Indians had Thanksgiving feasts at school today. One of my Indians went on a field trip to see the Blue Dog exhibit. The morning started with Indian #2's feast: That's a lot of first graders at that table!

My favoritest Indian of the First Grade!



After that feast ended I darted across town to my littlest Indian's feast.





The prettiest little Indian in the whole wide world....

Time to trick or treat! The best way to go door to door in a short amount of time? ride in your Daddy's pickup!

My silly birds...

On began our night at the Fall Festival at our church. Rubye Ann scored big at the cake walk. She then proceeded to lick all the icing and hand me the left over cupcake.....



The jumpys are always a big hit...





D. tried his hand at the shooting range...







Before we went trick or treating we caught a quick magic show.....
