Happy Thanksgiving from the Houstons!

We celebrated on Thursday with the Cantrells in Charlotte!  The boys love hanging out with their cousins and a great time was had by all!

On Saturday, we hosted Thanksgiving for the Bakewells.  Zack tackled the turkey as he always does and decided to deep fry the turkey like he has done the last few years.  We had quite a spread of food and the company was enjoyable too! ;)

Last weekend, we went back home to celebrate Grannie's 70th birthday!  We also got to see Granny V and PawPaw.  Playing ping pong is always a request when we go to their house!  Maddox enjoyed getting a hot chocolate while we grabbed the last few things for Grannie's birthday celebration.  I love this picture of him!  As you can see from the pictures below, we embraced the 70th birthday with themed paper products and cookie desserts that a friend of mine made for the occasion.  It was a fun day with family!

We continue to be in the Christmas spirit.... I now have twinkle lights for my car when we are driving at night!

Maddox somehow got locked in the dog crate one day!  Thank goodness he is cute!  It is easy to see that he has a brother that helps him get into trouble sometimes!;)

We celebrated Thanksgiving at school prior to our break we had at the end of this week.  We had a balloon parade and found turkey themed hats and photo booth opportunities throughout our school.  Maddox also brought home his first BRIGHT award for the year due to his good behavior and academic excellence!

We were able to play at the track two days over our Thanksgiving break.  We really enjoyed a leisurely few days at home which were needed after the busy fall season we had!
