Catching up on life.

Can you believe it is already the middle of Decemeber and Christmas will be here in just two weeks? I can't! Oh, but I am excited!
So, with the excitement of the upcoming holiday (my favorite holiday) I have overlooked some of the other happenings in my life. Now they are still BIG! But you know every once in awhile I have to catch up on life. So here it is...
Thanksgiving...with my whole big 'daddy's side' family. Lots and lots of cousins and second cousins which means it is loud and just getting louder. Oh, and yes it is hard to take a picture with that many people looking every which direction because there were too many cameras. Oh, and this photographer only got Olivia's leg. We will have to ask Grandpa for a better picture with Olivia's other half in it.

Again...too many cameras but that is my family on Thanksgiving.

The weather has been warm so we have been taking advantage and playing outside a lot. Here we are biking...PS Santa if you are reading I want a new bike for Christmas. A big blue bike!!!! (hint hint)

Probably the biggest news...I have a new cousin! John Rice Laughlin Jr. aka Johnny...notice the middle name! Super cool.

And last but not least, I have been going to a lot of basketball games lately. When I went with Papa I made it on the big screen a lot. This weekend when I went with Uncle John guess who we sat by...Grandpa and Catherine! It was fun and how funny they sat right beside us.
