Christmas 2014

Happy 3rd Birthday Scarlett

 

Today we went to Scarlett Grace's 3rd Birthday party. The kids were able to run all over the place. They had a blast. One of the added cute things of the day was that Reece wanted to wear her Super Girl outfit, so we let Avery wear his Super Boy shirt. They were the two cutest Super Kids ever! Happy Birthday Scarlett!!!

 

Thanksgiving 2014

 

This year for Thanksgiving we went to Dallas. Last year we went to Dallas ans started what we are hoping will become a family tradition. On Thanksgiving day we go to the Dallas Cowboys Football game (this year is the 11th year we have done this), but the day after Thanksgiving we go to a hotel is Dallas called the Gaylord Texan. The Hotel has larger than life decorations, Santa Clause & a Huge art Exhibit of Characters that are all carved out of ice. It is an amazing site. The whole family loves it!

 

The rest of the weekend was spent just hanging out at the Lake House.

Great Holiday!

Thanksgiving Program & Christmas Pictures

It is beginning to look a lot like Christmas... But we are not there yet. We can't forget about Thanksgiving! This year we have a lot to be thankful for. One of the best parts of thanksgiving was the Thanksgiving Program! Reece was the cutest little Indian. 

And we got our Christmas pictures! I love these little cuties more everyday!!! 

Quality Time

The Cain's have been on the go for a while now... It has been very nice to have a week and weekend of down time. It was much needed! 

Adventures in Lubbock

This past week we drove to Lubbock to see my mom, step-dad and extended family. One of our first adventures was going to the Corn Maze. We went with Brad (my step-brother) and his family. 

We also spent a lot of time hanging around the house and relaxing. 

One of Reece's favorite adventures was playing at PawPaw's shop. There was all kinds of tractors and things to play with. 

The best part of the trip was getting to spend time with family. Here is a sweet picture of reece playing with her cousin Luke. 

While in Lubbock we had to go to my old Alma Matre, Texas Tech! I love this picture of the kids sitting on the entry seal at the front of campus! 

Big Boy Haircut

This week we went to Lubbock for the first time since I was pregnant with Reece. When we arrived in Lubbock one of the first thing my mom noticed was Avery's extreme need for a haircut. It was so long all over. Ryan and I had been reluctant to cut it, because it had taken so long for Reece to have hair. With that said, we were all in agreement that it was time! So we took him to the hair salon, and got him a Big Boy haircut. I could not believe what a big boy he looks like with his new "Do." He is turning into such a handsome little man (where did my baby go?)! 

Brentwood Fall Festival

This year for Halloween Avery was a Fireman and Reece was Ana from Frozen! They looks so so cute (I'm not partial at all)! So in the spirit of the season their daycare throws a Fall Festival every year. It is always so much fun, and this year was no exception. They had bounce houses, fishing for duckies, face painting, and Tons of games. We were so excited to go, and even more excited that Nonni, and Poppa Cain joined us! 

A trip to A&M

 

This weekends adventures took Ryan and I to College Station to watch the A&M Aggies. It was fun to learn more about the strange (A.K.A.- awesome, according to Moi) things about the school and campus. 

 

One of the most cool things about the football stadium was the larger than life banner with Moises on it just inside the entrance! The game did not end with a W, but it was still a lot of fun to hang out with Jennifer and Moises (and no babies).

Fall is Here

 

This weekend we decorated the house and the yard for Fall. Avery LOVES pumkins. Ryan even tried to carve a pumpkin with Reece. It didn't go very well, so we just decided to decorate with whole/uncarved pumpkins.

 

I had to add this final picture of Avery getting into trouble. We heard him making noise, and looked over to see that he had crawled into Reece's doll house. It was too funny not to take a picture to show him when he gets older. 

 

Happy Birthday Uncle Moi

 

This weekend we went to Dallas to attend the Arkansas versus A&M football game to Celebrate my Uncle Moises' birthday. Ryan and I didn't really have a preference as to who won the game... As it turned out A&M came out the winner. This made Moi very happy.  It was so much fun to hang out with the family and watch Reece and Avery play with their cousin Abby.

 

Girly Fun

It has been so much fun playing with Reece's hair since it has finally started to grow. My favorite thing to do is the double french braid! More fun hair pictures to come I'm sure! 

Happy 4th Anniversary

 

This past week we Celebrated our 4 year Anniversary. We were not able to really celebrate because I was short-staffed at work (had to work all day by myself) and Ryan had school. I think we spent a total of 30 minutes together. I'm so glad that we still have each other even if we don't get to spend much time together.

 

Dance, Dance, Dance...

 

Today Reece has officially started dance class. The class that she is in is a jazz and ballet class. She was so excited to start dancing. The class is actually is at her daycare. She was so excited to start class, and have her school friends is class with her. I think this is a great way to get to get some of that spunky energy out. I can't wait until the end of year recital, and we are only one week in!

Time For Your Check up...

Reece is a huge fan of Doc McStuffins. So you can imagine her excitement when it was actually time for her own check-up. She was so excited to go see Dr. Jill that she wore her Doc McStuffins T-Shirt & took her entire doctor kit! She was so excited when Dr. Jill let her give her a check-up at the same time she was giving Reece a check-up.

 

As you can see Reece is a growing girl. We are super blessed that she is a happy, healthy and joyous little 3 year old "big girl."
