Quinn had a special Thanksgiving lunch with her class. They all dressed up like Indians, and Quinn's chosen Indian name was "Dancing Pony." They all made their shirts and they were darling!

Halloween
Yes, I realize that it is November 5th, but we have been having some computer difficulties...amazing how out-of-touch you can feel when you go a week without a computer! Here are our Halloween pictures...Quinn was the White Witch, Jadis, from the Narnia Chronicles and Tyndale was Aslan. Quinn saw this dress during an internet search for "witch costumes," and she said "That is it!!" She even has an icicle crown and a scepter that lights up blue...to freeze enemies of course! Off I went to Netflix and got the 70's cartoon movie of the Lion, Witch and the Wardrobe (because the Disney one is still a bit violent for Quinn at this age) because I wanted her to know who these characters were, and she loved it! I think they will love it even more when we begin to read the book series and watch the movies together. Oh, and that blurry picture of Tyndale is just perfect...that is what he looks like a LOT of the time now...on the move!Brad and I were a geisha and a samurai...we had a ton of fun with these costumes, and went to a party at Josh and Sloane's after the trick or treating ended.

Tyndale's first birthday party
I took pictures from each month and mounted them for a gallery of his first year...so fun to see how quickly he has grown and how much he has changed.
A deer party for my baby deer....can you tell why I call him that? Those darling doe eyes...
On the menu...make your own burritos and chicken enchilada soup, and cake of course!
Fun weekend part 1
Tyndale simply could NOT wait to open this one!
Ummm, yes....this would be the life-size Annakin that now lives with us. A birthday present for T.Fun Weekend part 2
We had such a great time visiting with the Simms and the Adams this weekend. So glad we could get together with all of them, since we haven't seen them in quite some time! Gray and Brad are always full of "good" ideas.... this weekend they built their own Green Egg out of two terracotta pots. It was funny to watch, but it actually worked great! Thanks to Kristy and Noel for allowing me to take over their camera...mine is slowly dying, and they were kind enough to let me use theirs to document the birthday party and more.

Tyndale's first haircut
Tyndale had his first haircut today at Mary's barbershop... ( my friend Ann Elise said it was the cutest thing in town seven years ago when she was visiting Brookhaven...I never thought that I would have a reason to go in, but here I am!) Tyndale got his haircut by Mary, and he did a great job! We had a moment at first where he did the 'stick out my bottom lip, I'm about to cry', as evidenced by the picture above. But luckily a nice man got him some candy and he was distracted by the crinkly paper for the rest of the cut. He looks so handsome now...and he even got a little paper documenting the moment..so sweet!

Ole Brook Festival
Just a few pictures from the Ole Brook Festival last weekend and around the house. Quinn helped Gimmie with the BARL tent at the festival...here is one of the darling puppies they were trying to adopt out.

Lazy Maddie
One member of our family who admittedly doesn't get enough face time on our blog is Maddie, our sweet cat. She and Quinn are great buddies, and play in the backyard together frequently. Here is a picture of Maddie doing what she does best! (I admit...I had to watch her for a minute to see that she was still breathing...kind of freaked me out!)

Quinn's Photograph
Here is an adorable picture of Tyndale that Quinn took with her camera today. I am not quite sure how she got this bleached-out look, but I LOVE it!
