Landon Turns 3

Happy Birthday Landon! We celebrated Landon's birthday with a Curious George theme since he loves watching Curious George while he eats breakfast. He was excited about the decorations, the cake, singing "Happy Birthday" to him, opening his presents, and playing with his presents. We had a great time!








Landon singing "Happy Birthday" to himself! :)

Bowling Machine

We went bowling last Sunday night for an after church fellowship with the youth. Landon enjoys riding the bus to the bowling alley and jusy hanging out with the "big kids!" He decided that he didn't want to use the help of a bowling ramp this time instead he could do it himself. So, with Memaw, Pops, and Matt coming to celebrate his birthday last week, he wanted to go bowling. We had a pre-Thanksgiving meal on Thursday, bowling/Christmas shopping on Friday, and Landon's birthday party on Saturday. Fun times!

Notice: his own bowling shoes :)

The dance is the best part of it!

Pumpkin Men

It was a rainy day here so we decided to make pumpkin men! I traced the circles, triangles, and smiles for him to cut out. I thought he did a pretty good job with the task. After the cutting, we glued each piece on in the correct place and made the arms and legs for them. He helped me do those since he couldn't quite figure it out. We went with the traditional orange pumpkin then he chose to do one in pink! Interesting but very cute! I took about 20 pictures of him and couldn't get any that came out good because he was so proud of his masterpieces to smile normal.




After we took a million pictures, he decided to play some music for me while I played the guitar. You will notice his enthusiasm for the drums! Love it!!!

Fall Fun

Landon has experienced the joy of raking up leaves and jumping into them! Of course, his favorite part of the adventure was using the big rake to get them together. Yes, I had/got to jump into them to show him how to do it! Ha! He took a picture of me laying down in the leaves but it turned out blurry. Enjoy our fall fun!



Jason had to miss out on the fun because he was running his 5 miles that night. He is training for the Memphis Half-Marathon (again & without me this time) on December 6th. So, we got video of Landon having fun to show Daddy!
