Go Tigers!! Beat Bama!!

It was the game anticipated by all.  I don't get typically get very serious about sports, but when LSU plays Alabama, I have my war paint on.  Now, there are SO many more important things than football, but judging by all the facebook statuses on November 5, most people don't believe that.  

Anyway, we went to our sweet friends', the Remberts, house.   What's better than watching LSU beat Alabama?  Watching LSU beat Alabama, with friends! Here are pictures from our night:

Eli loves to sit in things

 Our family minus Landry.  She was too busy playing for a picture

All the guys

 Lan, dressed in God knows what, playing with the Ipad

The little ones snuggled up, watching a movie

 The Ipad was a HUGE hit!  Can you find Libby?

 LSU was victorious after going into overtime, so the kids could wear their colors proud the next day!  They got to where the perfect outfits, thanks to my wonderful, creative mom!  Aren't these outfits to die for?!?!

That's right, Eli.  We're still number 1!!

Halloween

Just to refresh your memory, here is last year's halloween picture:

If you'll remember, Cory was dying to dress them up as batman and bat girl. We had the costumes, but Landry had another idea.  She is a princess, not a super hero.  We kept the costume for one more year in hopes that she would cooperate better this time.  Well, guess what.....

She's still a princess through and through, and a beautiful one I might add.  Two years in a row, we had a princess and a batman.  I wonder what the future holds.

As for this year, our kids were still getting over sickness, but we thought we'd take them to a local neighborhood anyway just to let them stop at a few houses.  Our wonderful friends, Brad, Amy, and Hayden, joined us.  We all had a wonderful time, and got plenty of candy for our treat bucket.  

Playing Catch Up....AGAIN

I hate getting behind on my blog.  I LOVE blogging about my little family, and being able to share with our extended family and friends.  However, the holiday season is upon us, and for a photographer that means non-stop editing!!!  Don't get me wrong, I love taking pictures and creating memories for other people.  It's very rewarding to give that gift.  But sometimes, I just have to take a little break to record some memories of my own :)

So, here we go.... (I hope you like pictures)

We took a trip to Natchitoches to visit Cory's family.  We had lots of fun, even though the kids were under the weather.

One of the first things we did was go to the pumpkin patch with Nana, Aunt Lindsay, and Cousin Mason!!!

They picked the perfect pumpkin, and then helped carve it that night.

 We also threw a surprise party for Poppy.  He turned 53 and we thought it'd be fun to let the kids celebrate with him.  We went all out with party hats AND blowers.  Woo Hoo, we had a big time ;).  Of course Landry was in charge of the cake, so she decided to make him a strawberry cake with green icing and an entire bottle of sprinkles on top.  Poppy thought it was the best cake ever.

We got back just in time for Halloween.   That will be my next post :)
