After being away for a week, it felt great to spend a little extra time with these two boys! I have to admit, they still wear me out and I sometimes count down to bedtime, but in between those moments, we have had the best time together! Maddox dressed up as an Indian one day last week for school and Zander had his kindergarten feast where he dressed up as an Indian as well! Then, on Wednesday (since there was no school), I took the boys to the science center with Grammy, Grandpa, Aunt Lindsey and Emerson! After we got home, Santa's little helper (a.k.a Zander) helped me put up the whole Christmas tree. He handed me each branch as I placed it on the tree and then put most of the ornaments on by himself. It was a great day with my boys!
On Thursday morning, we headed out for the Greensboro Gobbler. Zander and I ran the one mile fun run last year and decided to make it a family event this year. Zander ran the mile in 9:03 with daddy and Maddox and I (the M & Ms as we called ourselves!) finished in a little over 13 minutes! I think I have the cutest running partners! :)
We headed to Charlotte to celebrate Thanksgiving with Zack's side of the family. There was delicious food and wonderful company! I even found time to play with three boys (my nephew included). It is so fun to see the cousins starting to play together!
On Friday, we took daddy lunch at work and then went to see The Grinch in the theaters. The boys were absolutely perfect and I counted it as a successful outing! On Saturday, we hosted Thanksgiving for the Bakewell side of the family. As is tradition, Zack made the turkey (this year in the fryer) and many of the side dishes! We had a pretty yummy spread!
Thank Usss again,MERRY CHRISTMAS.
