OK. What is the deal?!?! This week Matt has been leaving food all over the house. Driving his momma CRAZY!! I have been picking up after him all week. More like all his life. Ha! All 3 years of it. Help!! Here are the photos of Matt's Food Parade!! First a bag of pretzels. In the foyer. Second, a bag of powdered donuts (a Matthew fave) in my bedroom. This is a pic of the donuts inside the bag. Notice, the bites he takes in each and then puts it back in the bag. Nice. Here is a Capri Sun on the stairs. And here is another juice box in the middle of the floor. Why? I don't know.

My sister sent me this cool clip. It is a true story. Read more here: http://www.vetlocator.com/newsarticles/christian_the_lion.php .

I'd like to wish everyone a very Happy Thanksgiving!! Gobble, Gobble!

Well, Alex ended yet another soccer season. He had a great time. His cousin, Preston, and one of his best friends, Will McKinney , were on his team this year. It was also fun to see him play with Kate Covey. The two of them were in preschool together. They have known each other since they were about 18 months old. He got to meet some new friends, too. He loves soccer and can't wait to play in the spring. Here are some pictures from the soccer party. It was fun. Thanks to coach Adam and his wife, Allison for putting it all together. They are awesome!!!
