Oklahoma trip 11/12

We went to Oklahoma for Thanksgiving this year. Asher and Cohen fished all they could. They have actually graduated to being able to fish by themselves. They bait their poles and get the fish off the hook. This is exciting news for Popo because these boys want to fish all day
long and sometimes he is wanting to take a break. Now they can do it all on their own.
During this trip we had a birthday party for Cohen, Asher and Cohen had 2 sleep overs with Addie and Easton, lots of fishing, Black Friday shopping, time with our good friends the Anderton's, great Thanksgiving dinner, movie-Wreck it Ralph, Mimi's Cafe, hair cuts, games, bedlam-not going in our favor-, Ron's, Taco stand, disc golf, and family time.
It was a great trip. One of my favorite memories is when Tutu was cooking fish for the boys. They were outside fishing(as usual) and she called out to them that she was getting ready to cook some fish. Well a few moments later, Asher comes to the back door and says,"Tutu I got the fish for you to cook." This is all while holding a fish ready to hand off.






















Just watching TV

This is the way Brooks likes to watch TV. Pretty funny!

Princess Gray....

We were in Target the other day in the party section. I turn around because Gray was talking to me. He had a tiara on his head and said,"look mom, I'm a princess." I could not stop laughing. He makes me smile when he isn't making me go crazy. Gotta love him.

Cohen's 6th birthday!!

I can't believe Cohen is 6. He is just the sweetest 6 year old there is. He has been such a joy to have in our family. He has the most adorable facial expressions that often makes you smile. Cohen has such a sweet spirit around him. He was star of the week in kindergarten this yer and they were filling out the all about me poster. One question was, I am special because, and Cohen's answer was,"I have the Holy Ghost". It doesn't get better than that.
For his party he invited 2 friends, Asher and his friend. We went to Build a Bear, which was a success.
The house was decorated as he likes it to be. I made sprinkled donuts for breakfast, and he had a red velvet bundt cake. It was a fun day and always fun to celebrate the birth of our Coney, CT, or Coco. I am thankful to be his mom and to watch him grow in all areas of life. He is doing really well in school. He loves to run and play basketball. Not a fan of me signing him up for soccer, but always enjoys it while he is playing.
