Our November

Our November has flown by! We can't believe only a few more months and we'll have a new baby in the house. We have done lots of fun things, including a book reading, lots of football game weekends, and Thanksgiving in Cabot.

The bookstore that held the book reading had a huge bird cage that Miss Lee helped Vivi see better...
Jacob and Vivi had lots of fun chasing each other...
Grandpa Tom and Lola Grace brought Vivi a new Dora bike one of the weekends they were in town for a football game...
Vivi helping Aunt Sheila cook...
We've been working on Vivi's bedroom. Here is her new antique princess bed. I need to take a picture of the almost finished room. We also found her a new pink night stand and side table. It's still a work in progress, but coming along...
Aunt Sarah, Uncle Brad, and Kate stopped by on a football game weekend...it was great to see them!
We also went to Lights of the Ozarks. It's always so pretty! Thanks to Aunt Boriana for taking some family pics for us...
OurWe spent this Thanksgiving in Cabot and had a wonderful dinner with Sheila and Stephen, my parents, Stephen's mom Nancy, and his sister Susan...

Vivi's 2nd Halloween

Vivi had a fun Halloween this year, although she wasn't crazy about her costume. I'm looking forward to next year when she can tell me exactly what she wants to dress up as!

The Greens invited us over for a Halloween party and we had a lot of fun catching up with friends, eating yummy food, and looking at their cows and goats!
Vivi trying to pull her butterfly wings off...
All the kids dress up...
On the Friday before Halloween, my parents brought Vivi up to my office for trick-or-treating. Here's Vivi with no wings and no head piece, a caterpillar as some of my friends called it...
Vivi counting her candy...
Grandpa Tom was the only one that wore the butterfly antenna...
She REALLY disliked those wings...
Vivi's friend Finn who was visiting from Atlanta before we went trick-or-treating around the neighborhood. Vivi was sometimes hesitant going up to some of the houses that were decorated scary for Halloween, but as soon as she saw the big bowls of candy she was eager as could be.
Vivi isn't a huge fan of sweets (yet) so she had a fun time feeding her goodies to everybody else!
