2009 was a great year for the Thomas's. We look forward to what 2010 will bring.

Christmas 2009

Kids had a great Christmas. Loved playing with there toys. Carter got 2 of the same dragon he was excited because they could be friends. Abby was not sure what to think she wanted to play with the boys and not open her gifts. Jackson was happy with the gi joe command center he tried to put it together by his self, when grandpa stopped by he helped set it up. Christmas dinner was a flop not only did no one come, but I cooked the turkey upside down. Eric is still laughing about it. I could not find the popper and when it was done I was trying to carve the turkey all I could find was brown meat. We are not big brown meat people and it had a lot of fat. Eric said there has to be more white meat so I flipped the turkey over, Low and behold there was my popper and the white meat. all in all we had a great day. Next is Abby birthday I can't belive she will 2.

Kids had a great time. Jackson found the one's he made in kindergarten with his picture and handprint. They loved putting the ornaments on. Abby likes to ring the bells. Carter likes the candy canes, I think most are gone already. The kids are so proud of the tree. Yesterday morning Carter got up and asked " did santa come" I had to explain not yet. I forgot how fun decorating a tree can be, when you look at all the ornaments. I love the ones that have a story behind them.

Today was the first time Abby really played in the snow. We like to eat it as you can see.
We tried to shovel the drive way so Dad did not have to. Carter got his little shovel he digs in the dirt with and tried to shovel the porch. Abby was having fun tell she fell, after that we went inside to warm up.

Thanks

Thanksgiving make me think and be thankful for the things I have in my life.
Eric my wonderful husband who is a great father. He is a great provider I am lucky to have him.
My wounderful children, Who make every day an adventure. I would be lost with them.
I hope that my Family know's how much I love them.
When I ask the boys what they are thankful for Jackson said his friends and toys, Carter said candy and his toys, Abby could not tell me but I am sure it's her little blanket that is always with her.
Thanks to all our family and friends life would not be the same with out.

Had a great time at the zoo, For Jackson field trip. The baby elephant was so cute. when she walked she woobled a little. made me think of when the kids where just starting to walk.
Where does the time go. It was a perfect day to go to the zoo there was not that many people. It was like we had the zoo to our selfs. It was a great way to start our weekend.

Halloween

Pumpkins all light up.
Ready to do trick or treating with Uncle and Aiden

Hanging out at the Halloween party.

All dressed up to start the Halloween fun.


Kids had a great Halloween. Went to a Halloween party

Then to show grandma and grandpa Thomas our costumes.

Then to grandma and grandpa Bishops to trick or treat with

Uncle and cousin Aiden. The three boys where cute if one said

something the other two would say it to. By the end of the night

the kids where all tired and glad to be back home.

The Kids had a blast carving pumkins. Jackson did his all by his self I am so proud. Carter got up set his eye patch fell off, after the picture we used tooth picks to put it back in. Abby did not want the pumpkin seeds, she did want to lick the spoon we used to get the seeds out. In all we had a great time. Can't wait for tomorrow.

Went to Gardner Village the kids had a blast. Carter was not sure about riding the horse, once Grandma and Aunt Jill said it would be fun he gave it a try. They both said that was the best part.

On Friday the boys had a rough afternoon. I made them take a nap while I was getting Carter to stay in his room. Abby went down stairs turned on the tv ( it was on cartoons) She grabbed her favorite blanket, bottle, and bear. When I came down stairs she was out cold.

Made Halloween craft with the kids.

Abby had more marker on her then her picture.

She was so proud.

Jackson had fun but was in a hurry.

Carter took his time to make sure he stayed in the lines.

The boys hung there picture in there room, but the

picture had glow in the dark eyes that scared them.

They now hang on the outside of there doors.

This afternoon we decorated the yard for Halloween.
The boys had so much fun doing the spider web.
We all can not wait for Halloween.

Happy Birthday Jackson.

Had a good time this weekend at the birthday

party. Kids had a good time playing with there

cousins. Jackson was happy with the toys he got.

Carter and best friend Torren. First day of preschool. learned the letter A and got to cut with scissors, his favorite part. My little boy is growing up.

Waiting for Jackson. School is getting better for Jackson so far no more problems. The kids are enjoying the cooler weather. I can't wait for fall. for the trees to change colors. and Halloween to carve pumpkins, make caramel apples and of course trick or treating. The Boys are all ready thinking about what they want to be. I can't wait. I am as bad as the kids.

Jackson picture day. Putting on a brave face. On Tuesday he was hit with a book by the class bully. I talked to the teacher and principal the boy is a known problem, but they are working with him. Jackson is so scared of the boy last night he was crying when I came home from work at 11:30 pm that he did not want to go to school. He made his self sick. I just hope the school correct the problem. School just called Jackson got sick in class. Off to school to get him.

We survied the first week back to school. Jackson likes school so far, but says there is one bully in the class. Carter likes to pick Jackson up from school not to see Jackson but his little friend. Who also has a brother in 1st grade. Abigail is just happy and looks so cute in pigtails.

Carter and Abby just hanging out while they wait for big brother to get out of school. Carter does not know what to do with the playroom all to his self. Look at that grin it says I am up to something.
