Decisions decisions!....

We had some time today...so we decided to go check out dresses since the school's pageant is in January. We wont have a lot of time to try and find something with us being full every weekend with fun holiday things going on.

We hit the store and we were the only ones in there so we had a field day trying on allllll the dresses! And I mean...we tried the all on and had the whole store and the sweet lady just helped and helped us! :)

So...we didnt actually choose any today since they are getting a huge new shipment in at the beginning of December. Hopefully I can make it back over with the girls once day after work and we can finalize the perfect dress for each girl!

Oh, the decisions....   :)

This white one fit her really well. She liked it but....just not sold on it....

This one fit Lily to a T! She just looked like a princess in it!

Then...she tried on this one...and its like she just grew up in a second! She just spun and glowed in this one!

Then...Alexis tried on this one! It took my breath away! They both just looked amazing in these two! I didnt take pictures of others because out of all we tried on, these choices were the best looking on them!
I cant wait to check out the new choices coming soon...and then pick the perfect one for them!
Dont they just look beautiful! :)

Christmas feels!....

We have the Christmas feels here...

and loving...loving it! :)

OHH....my favorite! I just love our living room tree! I added some red touches this year and I think its my favorite on it!

I love my mantle this year too!

Alexis calls this the 'rockin roll' tree because she says 'Its the funniest!' :) I just love how the lights reflect off the mirror in the dining room!

A shot of Alexis' tree. She worked really hard on decorating it herself like Lily!

Added a tree to the playroom this year! I love it! It has the girl's ornaments that they have made through the years! :) :)

A little Christmas in the kitchen!

And...the dining room at night is my favorite! I love alllll the lights and the white lit up at night!

It a beautiful wonderland in there at night! Love!

Momsgiving and a little like Christmas!

Last night our Church had what we called 'Momsgiving'....and it was much needed!

The kids had fun playing and eating pizza. The Dad's enjoyed a relaxing night at home...and us Moms enjoyed chatting, TONS of food and two wonderful speakers who spoke on their testimonies and how they and we should and are thankful!

It was a great night!

And....it is beginning to look A LOT like Christmas in our home! And...I.am.loving.it.  :) :)

In this picture...we have totally mixed Thanksgiving with Christmas...........and we dont care one bit! Lily was ready for Church that morning...and for the 'Momsgiving' with her friends!

Im LOVING my decorations this year! I say that every year....but every year I mean it! ha!

Lily loves her Christmas tree in her room! She decorated it all by herself! She was super proud of herself and how it turned out!

My dining room! A winter wonderland! More decor pictures coming soon!
We are loving our Thanksgiving break so far!

THE food! We had TONS....and it was all so good! Such a great evening with sisters in Christ! Just what my heart needed!

Love the woman! We had a great turn-out!

Good food...good friends....good chatting and catching up!
Kicking it off with decorating...and today doing some Christmas shopping! Cant get much better!....and not to mention, we have had beautiful weather...FINALLY! :) :)

Seeing double gobbles!

Today marked the girl's Thanksgiving feast at school and they were sooooo excited....

to get checked out!

Yeah...they didnt really care that it was Thanksgiving food....or really {maybe not} that I was even there with them... but more, just the fact, that I checked them out after! :)

It's okay....its understandable! And...its not everyday that they get to check out, so Im okay with it! :)

These two...OH...ME.....Ella is the sweetest...but she is a MESS {silly wise} and has soooo much energy...and you put her and Lily together.......they make me tired! :) :)
I love them both BIG though! :)

My little Turkey and I!

Then...it was this big Turkey's time! Willa Kate and Lex are such sweet friends!

SP and Lex! Adorable!

We enjoyed a yummy Thanksgiving meal and then came home and curled up and watched The Grinch before heading to celebrate Emily's birthday! She was soooo surprised that we told them to sing to her....and it was tooooo funny that they put the whipped cream on her! She was not expecting that either! :) :)

Wordless Wednesday with a little turkey!

OH my....little Alexis!

My heart!...OH, my heart! :)

She was SUCH a ham when she was this age! Still is...........but more then!

My goodness....sooooo adorable!

A championship WIN and a working hard weekend!

We had a busy and successful weekend!

We started the weekend with a bright and early....and cold C Team championship game! The C Team fought hard but came up short.  BOO! But, they are runners up!

Then the girls and I started some Christmas shopping as we hit the town for a little bit before gearing up for Alexis' A Team game!

Those boys are undefeated and have played soooo great for years {winning the Championships!} So, last night.................they dominated Hokes Bluff and WON!

It was another cold day...but OH so worth it to watch them win!

Bundled up and ready to cheer!

These sweet girls didnt care it was cold! They had a blast!

Some shopping....lunch....and a 'fun' drink from Starbucks! Total WIN!

Then....on to fun with these sweet friends!

About to perform! They did AWESOME out on that field! I just LOVE watching Alexis dance! Just beautiful! She truly shines!

SK came to support! Carli came later! We ended the night and the great victory by having a late night dinner with them and Mrs. Alison! Then Alexis spent the night with SK and Carli to round out the night!

BOOM!

The boys are AWESOME! I cant wait to watch them do big things in high school! They will go all the way!

And......so adorable!

Then bright and early....ready to worship...and serve today!

After a wonderful Church lunch with our Church family....we hit the ground running! Working hard!

My girls worked hard helping paint the curbs and the parking lines! We had a great day serving! We finished out the after with Alexis heading to see the Grinch with Sam Parker and his family followed by dinner at Olive Garden while us three met Gran, Ben, Nannie, La La, Mal, Aunt Pam and Richard at The Rocket for dinner!

She cleaned up real quick from working hard at Church and was ready to see the movie with SP! :)

Missy sent me this picture of them in the car ride home! All smiles! So sweet! The Wagoner family came in when they dropped Lex off and we enjoyed hanging out with them the rest of the night before we all hit the sack!
We had a full and great weekend!

A girl's night with dinner and a movie!

We had the best girl's night last night with the sweetest of friends!

We headed to Moe's for dinner and then saw The Nutcracker movie that we have been dying to see!

So fun!

We were ready to go!

Moe's for the win! They all loooove Moe's!

Movie time! Such a good little movie! Makes me want to be a ballerina!  :) :)

Ready for the show to start! Love the girls little friends...and their Mommas! :)

Perfect in every way!

We have had little friends this week that had an impromptu morning and afternoon with us...

and tonight, we did our 6 month growth check on the girls!

OH....this is always SO intense! They both just DO NOT want the other to have grown more than the other! It is always sooooo comical to me to watch them!

The school had a 2 hour storm delay however...there was no storm or rain {for that matter} but there was something good that came out of it! 1. We got to sleep in some and 2. Madelyn came over and hung out with us too!

 Sweet Paula's birthday! She is the best cleaning lady EVER! We took her out for lunch and so she wanted a picture with us all! :)

 Then, yesterday, this little one came home with us after Kindness Club and before Church! OH...he loves his Alexis and Lily!
I tell the girls ALLLL the time that Jackson is the closest they are going to get to a little brother {that they want} sooo...they treat him just like one! :) :)
The sweeeeetest thing!....his sweet Mommy is pregnant...and we all just found out. So I asked him what his sister is going to be named {because he ONLY wants a sister.} Well, he said 'Her name is going to be Alexis Lily Green!' :) :)

 AND.....tonight we check how much their ears grew! :)
Her shirt says it all! Perfect in every way! :)

 Standing TALLLLL! ha!

 Notice...the bow back in! She just had to take it out to make sure it didnt interfere! ha!
Signing her name by her measurements!

 This one takes it the MOST serious! I dont think she was even breathing while Daddy did this!

 Sooo.....drum roll....
Lily is actually shorter than Alexis was at the same age {but has a bigger foot, go figure?!}  BUT....Lily has grown more than Alexis since the last time we measured!

So....both were a 'win-win'....so we didnt have any meltdowns and 'no FAIRS!' this time! haha!
Alexis' measurements here...

 And...Lily's here!

 We did a little b-ball shooting...

 and ping pong while we were down!
AND....GUESS WHAT!! I BEAT Tyler in a game of ping pong! WHAT!?!?! YEP, Im the WINNER! :) WHOOP WHOOP WHOOP WHOOP! {Can you tell Im just a LITTLE excited! Probably because I have never beat him before!} bahaha!
