Birthday's & Holiday's!

Cooper and Parker recently celebrated their 13th and 11th birthday's! Cooper had a sleepover weekend out at my parent's house on the river. He wanted to break it up, so he had some friends spend the night Friday and some Saturday. They had fun boating, tubing, fishing, doing smores in the bonfire and much more!

Parker celebrated with friends at Pop Stroke followed by a sleepover with his best friend. They love my parents courtyard pool, so my parents were so kind to have them spend the night! We also celebrate both boys with a pizza party at our house with grandparents, aunts & uncles and cousins.

Both boys were soccer players for Halloween and had a blast trick or treating in the neighborhood. This was the first year though, that they really weren't into dressing up. We pulled costumes together literally minutes before heading out!

We went to the mountains in Georgia for the kids fall break this year with our "Cul-de-sac" neighbors. We all stayed in one house (26 of us!) and had the best time. The leaves were changing colors and the hikes were beautiful.

We spent Thanksgiving in Turks and Caicos with my side of the family, 16 of us and had the most wonderful time. The kids snorkeled for the first time and Parker took home a conch and sand dollars. Even though there were probably 8 resort style pools and a waterpark, they spent most of their time at the beach. The water is the most beautiful water we've ever seen.

Cooper made his middle school soccer team and they are doing really well this season. He has gained so much more confidence this year and is playing so well and having a great time too! Parker just finished his soccer season. He had fun with friends, but it was a rough season. The boys just started Christmas break and are looking forward to 19 days off celebrating the holiday season with friends and family. We wish everyone a very Merry Christmas!!
