Christmas Parade



I know it is not even Thanksgiving yet but the girls and I went to the Christmas parade this past Saturday. Only in Asheville can you see roller derby girls and llamas in the same parade. We got lots of candy and even a coupon for a free waffle from the waffle house..life is good. It wasn't real cold but my butt was frozen after it was all over and the jolly old fat man rolled by. What a great way to start out the holiday week!

Happy Thanksgiving

family gathering





Ok, when you say we are all getting together the first thing out of our months is where are we eating. We got to go to Quaker State & Lube...a chicken wing place. We use to go to them when we were traveling the US, they are from PA. Very good. We all got together to celebrate a few birthdays, I know we were a little late. With every one's busy schedule it is sometimes hard to all get together but we all did. So we celebrate a very late B-day for Tim and a week late for Ra. We all had a great time and left very full.

carved pumpkins






We did a carved pumpkin contest to raise money for relay for life. We had a table set up and the pumpkin that raises the most money wins a pizza. The winner gave the pizza to the lambs group at the church. We raised about $25.00 for the funny farm's account. Craving for a Cure!

halloween





it may have rained, it may have poured, it may have gotten cold
but we still had a ball at truck & treat at church
you go trick & treating to every car...neat idea
the girls were all dressed up and we had a crowd until the weather went to the worst
Jenna went as thing 1
Tori went as thing 2
Sam was the fish in the fishbowl in the Cat in the Hat book

halloween chess


every year the girls do a halloween chess tournament in Hendersonville...they dress up and play 4 games. This year Sam went and she did pretty good on the games but she won the costume contest...she was a fish in a fishbowl...

the day before


most schools will not let the kids dress up for halloween anymore...so the girls got their halloween shirts out and showed off their devilish spirits.

halloween party



we had a Halloween party at the church. The kids came dressed up, we played games (which team could put Mr Bones back together), food, lots & lots of candy and a pinata. It seemed like the kids had fun.

wave party





I am the biggest chicken fan out there. I can eat chicken 3 times a day and have. But after Sam dressed up her cow as the chick fila cow at the fair she became the biggest chicken fan in south Asheville. The chick fila company hosted her a wave party for her and 20 of her friends and family. They let all of us order whatever we wanted to eat, the kids played on the playground, and they gave Sam a big chick fila cow, which is named Chicken now, (he goes everywhere with us). It was a great time. If you get the chance go support your local chick fila they support the locals!

pumpkin patch






We took the girls to the Hickory Gap Farms in Fairview. It was a blast! We played with the animals, walked the corn maze, & picked pumpkins. The fall colors were amazing and the family time price less.
