Quick catching up...Thanksgiving

The best time of the year, as far as I'm concerned! We drove to Muncie for a long holiday...notto mention a long drive. Never used to seem that long.

Anyway, if it weren't for the cat, the week would've been perfect! Art's horribly allergic to cats and my grandma has a sweet little kitty, who Leah affectionately calls 'meow'.

We got to see all the cousins and had so much fun playing with everyone! Not to mention all the good food! Yummy!

We have now officially kicked off the holiday season in style!

Photos of multi generations! And this is what happens after 10 hours in the car...

Quick catching up...Halloween!

We have been having so much fun with Leah these days and Halloween was no exception. Of course I waited until the last minute to figure other costume, but finally decided to get creative and make her a Dorothy costume from wizard of oz. we were out shopping and Leah found the cutest pair of red glitter slippers and she made us buy them ( by not putting them down in the store...).

She got to wear her Dorothy dress as daycare for their parade and then later that night when we went trick or treating with Grammie and her friend Charlie (and his parents, of course).

Here she is as she waves at her fans before heading out to get some candy! She really got the hang of knocking on doors and saying thank you. *so proud!*

I love you, Room & Board outlet

You will see this new baby make its debut tonight in our living room! So excited!

Isnt this what everybody does in LA?

Had dinner tonight in downtown LA at bottega louie. What a scene! Paparazzi and limos, and of course we couldn't leave without getting some macaroons! My first one trying these amazing things...so good! I think I found my new treat! A must have!

Way to go, Uncle Kevin!

We had so much fun in Omaha this week! We certainly took advantage of the great (hot) weather as much as possible!

Leah cheered everyone on and even learned to say GO!! It was awesome!

Omaha bound!

Omaha, here we come! On our way to swimming Olympic trials to cheer on uncle Kevin!!

He swims first thing tomorrow morning and we'll be there cheering him on!

But, we still have a car trip to conquer with our wonderful toddler...

Twinkies!

Father-Daughter days...oh, how much I love it when Dad dresses Leah and then Dad dresses himself.  At least they have pretty good taste!

My little cutie!

What a weekend!

Thanks to the family and friends for making it such an amazing weekend! Great job to the tough mudder guys! No major injuries and everyone made it to the finish line. That equals a win in my book.

The kiddos played at home all day and enjoyed a little party time in the afternoon.

Not to mention, Leah is starting to drink from a big girl cup, but hasn't quite mastered it yet...only a matter of time!

We just have too much fun!

She's learning so quickly these days and getting so fun! Here's some of the things we've been up to:

Play date!

What a day! Everybody is off in different directions, but lucky for us, we're having a great time!

The kiddos found the animals!
