Happy Thanksgiving & Anniversary!

We hosted our first Thanksgiving dinner this year.  Don and Rhonda flew out to spend the holiday weekend with us.  Rhonda and I spent the morning in the kitchen making all kinds of good food, and the boys watched football and entertained Cadynce.  
Don and I took part in black Friday this year.  We left the house at 5am and drove to the outlet malls and shopped until we dropped.  Grandpa and Mimi got to watch Cadynce most of the day while we were gone.  It sure was great to get out, and the best part was that we didn't have to pay our babysitters!  Our four year anniversary was also on Thanksgiving this year so it was nice to get away for the day.  Cadynce loved having her Grandpa and Mimi here.  She loved all the extra attention, hugs, and kisses!  It was so nice to have family here for the Thanksgiving weekend!  View Album for more pictures.

Jeff and Julie Visit

Jeff and Julie flew out to visit this weekend.  Don and Jeff ran the half marathon together on Sunday.  They did great running it in 1 hour and 41 minutes.  Julie was the navigator and we got to see them 4 times.  Cadynce loved having her Uncle Jeff and Aunt Julie here.  She did a lot of showing off for them.  We had a great time hanging out and we enjoyed eating dinner at Saltgrass and Mamasitas.  We also went bowling on Monday morning before they had to fly back to cold Indiana.  View Album for more pictures.  Click here for videos.

What a Day!!

Saturday was a big day for Cadynce.  In the morning we went to a petting zoo that's really close to our house.  She got to hang out with the goats, pet little ponies and donkeys, feed rabbits, look at pigs, and finally she got to ride a horse.  Boy did she love that.  As she was riding she would say "my horse" and did not want to get down.  She did so good holding on to the saddle.
After nap time we picked up Ricky and went to the Air Show at Lackland Air Force Base.  We went to see Ricky's Squadron where they had food and fun for the kids.  We ended up staying there to watch the air show.  It was awesome!  Ricky also took us to look at the F-16 jet, which is the jet he is currently flying, and we got to climb up and sit in it.  That was awesome!  Cadynce was so excited to touch the airplane.  It was a long, fun-filled day.  View Album for more pictures.  Click here for videos.
