December: H Turns 7!

I woke up my Mom and Dad did it while I was sleeping.

These are my friends at my birthday party. It was a ginger bread birthday party. We were planning run, run fast as you can can't catch me i'm the gingerbread man. It was fun.

A good cake. We played tag too. My presents were cool. I had a great birthday.

"We had a fantastic time and it was a real feast. We went to our friend's house and we got to play with our friends while our parents talked to the adults. In the morning before we went we baked cookies and got ready to go. My favorite food that we had there was the cookies that we made and the pumkin pie with whipped cream someone else brought. That night we talked to our family on skype. I had a good time talking to our family." -C

"We had a real turkey. We had a good feast. My favorite was the rolls Aunt Crystal made and the turkey. My favorite part of the day was talking to our family on skype. I hope you had a great feast too!" -H

E enjoyed "helping" with the cookies (mostly the eating) and playing with her friends. She also enjoyed trying to get in front of the camera and wish everyone a "Happy Tanksgiving!" while we were skyping.

Afternoon in the village

"The village very unusual place then what we are used to. They keep baby goats in little houses. My favorite thing was to see the cotton field. I sat under a big tree with the kids and I got to take lots of pictures of them. They don't get their picture taken very much. I think they liked it. They smiled a lot." -C
"The village was very nice. It had nice people. The cotton was very pretty. The African kids were very nice and friendly. A lot of the girls had their brothers and sisters on their backs. I was really glad they gave us some peanuts to take home and make boiled peanuts. My favorite thing was getting to see the fields and animals." -H
E spent the afternoon entertaining the kids and chasing the animals. She had a ball!

Our Wish Lists

Some of you have asked what we want for bdays and Christmas and so Mommy let us make online wish lists. You can see them in the right hand column. Click the link to our Walmart and Target wish lists. Remember the key word is "wish"...Mommy let us go pretty crazy. ;)

If you have any questions you can email Daddy & Mommy. Also, if you get anything form the lists either have the cashier scan the registry or tell Daddy & Mommy so they can update the list and there are no duplicates.
