Thanksgiving Weekend

Well I feel really behind. Everybody has already posted about Thanksgiving, and are already putting up pictures of their Christmas decorations! We spent this Thanksgiving at my parents house with my dads side of the family. We were there pretty much all day. We even took naps over there. Then later that evening we went and hung out with Joes parents since we didn't eat with them this year. Friday it was really nice weather so I wanted to do something outside. So we went to Gene Autry park and played sand volleyball with some of my family and some of Joes family. It was so fun! I haven't played volleyball since I've had Keelie. I want to try and play every weekend while the weather is so nice, so if anyone wants to play, give me a call! On Saturday morning we had a big family party to celebrate my grandparents 60th anniversary. Then later that afternoon we went with my parents, my brother, and my sisters to Freestone park to ride the train and play. (again taking advantage of the nice weather). This was the only time this whole weekend that I took pictures, so there are alot of them!
Keelie, Joe, and I. Yes Joes hair is super short. He always does that when I'm not there with him getting it cut.


Keelie walking. Yes, walking! She is doing so good!

Keelie falling. I thought it was a cute action shot.

Funny story: As Keelie was crawling away I was taking pictures of her and calling her name, trying to get her to look at me. There was a little girl walking by whose name was Kaley and thought I was talking to her, so she was standing there waving at the camera with a really confused look on her face. Then her parents walked up and figured out that I was talking to KEELIE and not KALEY. They were probably wondering why I would be taking pictures of their daughter too! And I actually had no idea she was even there, cuz I was just looking at my camera the whole time!

Keelies early birthday present

We got Keelie an early b-day present yesterday. A play kitchen set! I know it might seem weird to get a 1 year old a kitchen set, but my mom has one at her house and Keelie will play with it forever! She loves to open and shut all the doors, and throw all the dishes on the floor. I have been looking on craigslist and found a few, but they still seemed expensive for being used. So we were at Walmart and saw this one and knew she would love it cuz it has SIX doors for her to open and shut. The counter is a little tall for her, but she will grow into it. All she cares about right now are the doors anyways!

Halloween

I was so excited for Halloween this year! Now that we have Keelie I think all holidays will be so much more fun. Every year Joes parents ward has a chilli cook off, fry bread, and homemade rootbeer on Halloween so we went to that. Their building is close enough to walk, and on the way home, we trick-or-treated to only a few houses of people we knew. Keelie is to young for all that candy, and I sure didn't want to eat it!

Here is Princess Keelie! She looked sooo cute in her costume! I don't know how to flip the 2nd one.

Here are Keelie with her cousins the Ricedorffs and the Platts.

Keelie (princess), Kate (ladybug), and Annie (pumpkin). These are 3 of the 4 cousins that were all born just a few months apart. We missed you Lucy!

Just the 3 of us! I know, me and Joe are boring, no costumes!
