Sock Hop!

Last week, the boys school had their annual Sock Hop, so the boys got out their 50's attire, I slicked back their hair, and we were ready to party!











Brooke loves being included in the fun and craziness around here.









Getting ready to head out....













Drew loves to enter ALL contests of ANY kind, so when he heard they were having a cake decorating contest, he was in. All I did was bake the cake and supply the accesories and he put this face together. I was impressed!

It ends up that the judges were impressed as well because he won the contest for the 1st grade!!! Wow---so cool! Here he is showing off his name :)

Luck was on his side that night because he also won a cake on his first try on the cakewalk. He picked out a giant eyeball and it was delicious!

This year, Jackson kind of took off on his own. We would see him here and there and he and his friends went around and played the games together.

Our friend Katie, who is one of Brooke's best friends, introduced her to cotton candy. I think she likes it!

And...Brooke eating again...Every picture I have of her that night, she's eating!!

What a fun night for our family!

Catching Up....

Last week, the boys ran their annual fun run to raise money for their school. They look forward to this every year. They can get pledges and run as many as 35 laps. Drew ended up running 45 and Jackson ran 55. They were both sweating and smiling!

Brooke and I are their biggest fans. Here Brooke is handing out "high 5's" to anyone who runs by.

Jackson in the zone......

He stopped to take a picture with one of his fans.....

Here he is with his best friend, Will. They kept pace with each other almost the whole time.

On Columbus Day, the kids and I went to one of our favorite places, the Grapevine Arboreteum.

Brooke trying to get in the action with the frisbee...

Jackson is retrieving the frisbee from the bushes. Brooke was dancing on the stage that they have there.

Peek-A-Boo!! (like 20 times before I couldn't take it anymore)

Moving on.....our trip to the grocery store. I just had to get a picture of Brooke and her new loves. She must carry these 3 dogs with her.....to bed, in the car, in the store, to the park, to the baseball games.....oh my gosh, it is getting exhausting to keep track of those 3 dogs, but it is so cute, I'll put up with :)

What Brooke does at baseball games......

Find a seat with the other little sisters and see what everyone brought to play with....

Check out the latest issue of Tiger Beat...

Most of all....cheer on my brothers and look cute!
