Happy Thanksgiving

We spent Thanksgiving morning at GJ and Granddaddy's watching the Macy's parade.  We then ate lunch and hung out for a while.  We ended our day with Grandma and Pop by eating dinner and hanging out.

Aboard the Polar Express

We started the Christmas season by going to Bryson City, NC  with Jonathan, Temple and Reese, and renting a cabin for the weekend.  While there, we boarded the Polar Express.  This is such a special event for a family because we do it every year.  The train ride begins with songs, including Coleman's personal favorite, "Hot Chocolate".  Then the conducter came by our seat to punch our tickets.  After he punched our tickets, we began to following along reading the Polar Express.  After we read the story, we arrived at the North Pole, and we picked up Santa and one of his elves.  On the train ride back to Bryson City, we sang Christmas carols and received a visit from Santa and his elf. Upon his visit, he presented us with a silver bell.  What a wonderful weekend to open our hearts for the Christmas season!

Soccer's End of the Season Party

This year we were on a soccer team with a lot of our friends and Mr. Clint as our coach.  It was a tough year because most of the kids were 4 years old, but we were put in the U06 league.  We had young players, but it will make us stronger in the end.  We ended our season with a party in Justin's Place, which is located in the YMCA.  Cousin Reese even came to watch Coleman!
