Soccer Tots

Jacob has been participating in Soccer Tots, a weekly 101 on how to play soccer. (I could probably take lessons, too). It is pretty amusing to watch. Jacob gets really into the early part of the experience but by mid-way through he is "tired" and "needs to rest." There are also some kids in hear who are very, very good!!! Next up is Little Sluggers!

Pre Christmas Wrap Up

Our pre-Christmas week of posts is wrapping up with a couple of school related items. The first pictures are from Jacob's school Christmas party. Suzanne was one of a handful of moms who got to help and she managed to snap a few pictures while she worked. Below those are pictures from the school Christmas program. Jacob was not much of a showman in front of a large group of people but he wasn't scared either. It was certainly entertaining to see him "perform" in this setting for the first time.

Baby William

Since it is Christmas week, I am going to do my absolute best to get us caught up on life. All sorts of happenings to report. We'll start with the quick but nice visit that Jacob and Patrick had with Baby William Clements. The Clements were in Mandeville for Thanksgiving and we got to spend a little bit of time with them. Not only is William cute, he is well behaved, much like his cousins! (Most of the time.)

Thanksgiving 2012

We are only two weeks away from Christmas and you know what that means. It is time to post pictures from Thanksgiving!!!

We had a great trip to Grenada, albeit it was cut one day short by bad weather. Still, we got in some great visiting time with all of my mother's family, plus several on my father's side. Then, we got back to see baby William Clements before they left.

All in all, it was a wonderful Thanksgiving and I was very "thankful" for many things this year!
