UAB Game

 SNOW CONES!!!!



 These two were "fighting" in the stands.  Cousins and besties for sure.

 My little family except we're missing Walker.  Poor kiddo had to leave in the 3rd quarter for his mandatory nap.

UCF beat UAB last weekend 49-24 to clinch the East of C-USA!!  I was very lucky to have my dad, my sister, and my brother-in-law there to help me with our wild kiddos; it takes a village to survive these football games!  Ha!

UCF plays for the conference championship this weekend in Tulsa.  The game is at noon on ESPN2.  GO Knights!!!!!

Light Up UCF























Over Thanksgiving, Mom, Amy, and I took the boys to "Light Up UCF," which is right in front of the UCF Arena (which is right behind Tyson's office).  It has an ice-skating rink, ferris wheel, another carnival-type ride, an ice sledding station, and a train ride; at night, it shows a Christmas movie and has lots of cool lights.  Apparently, Santa also comes to Light Up UCF, but his times are kind of sporadic; I'm sure we'll try to catch him at some point this Holiday Season.

As you can tell by the pictures, the boys had the best time.  Of course, the train was a big hit.  But to our surprise, all 3 boys LOVED the ice sledding.  I went down it a few times with Walker, and it was a little scary to be honest with you.  Ha!  We're definitely going to go back soon so Jake can try the ice skating.  Who would have thought we'd have to move to Florida to go ice-skating?  Ha!

Thanksgiving

 Gracie bug stole my heart.

 Uncle Courtney carves the turkey...after sampling a small piece, of course.
 Looks like Gracie bug stole someone else's heart, too.
 Walker to the rescue!
 Jake, the legendary beyblader.
 Sir Jace.
 Thanksgiving...the little boys' table.

 Our fancy Thanksgiving feast. ;)
 Tyson got to come home around 2 and spent the evening with us!!
 The 3 Amigos.

 
 Granddad and Gracie.

 Ellie, my parents' 6 lb chihuahua, wasn't a big fan of my 90 lb dog.
 Bahaha!
Sam wasn't phased by Ellie and her old teeth.
 
 
I hope everyone had a Happy Thanksgiving!  For the first time in 6 years, I was with my family for Thanksgiving, and I couldn't have been any happier.
 
We hosted my sister and her family and my parents for Thanksgiving this year.  It was a little chaotic at times with a 4, 3, 2, and 1 year old all under one roof, but I loved having a house full...that's definitely the way it should be on holidays! 
 
I took a ton of pictures, so expect more posts to come over the next week.  Happy Thanksgiving!
