Day 168... Thanksgiving Placemats

Tonight we made place mats for Thanksgiving. Everybody had fun and really tried to do their best. I think they came out pretty cute! Each person put their own spin on the project.

Carson was psyched that I gave him the award for most creative. He rocked out with his turkey's and really enjoyed making them. I think it shows. Way to go bear!

Day 167... Bike Riding

It is another gorgeous fall day here in Georgia. The team wanted to get out and enjoy some bike riding. They love speeding up and down the hills here in the neighborhood. John did lots of adjusting on tires and seats but then we kicked back and just watched the kids ride. Maybe one of these days we will have bikes too and can join them.

Day 166... BUNCO

Our blog sponsor of the day was Aunt Teresa. She invited us over for an evening of dinner and Bunco. So FUN!! I have only played Bunco once about 15 years ago. I was a sub for a game in California with my sister. I knew it was a dice game but couldn't remember much more than that. As soon as I started rolling the dice on the practice round it all came back to me.

The kids and John loved it too. Aunt Teresa was thrilled to be hosting her first Bunco night and thrilled that she was finally making the 365 blog. Thanks Aunt T for a great night!! See you next month!!

Ready for our first ever BUNCO night!!

Kenna loved being a score keeper!!

"Fight, Fight, Fight" Aunt Teresa sure she was going to be the winner against John and I.

BUNCO on two's..Yeah Maddie.

On the 2nd set Jack had 6 straight wins!! He was thrilled!

I FINALLY MADE THE BLOG!!

Day 165....... Feasting with Friends

Every year we gather with home school friends at Pooles Mill Park and have a mini feast to celebrate Thanksgiving. The kids love getting together with their friends and always have a great time. Today was no exception. Fun for all of us!!

Day 164... HAIR CUTTING FUN!!

Today's fun was haircuts. Would I normally count them as fun? Probably not. But due to circumstances beyond my control one was desperately needed and made a certain 10 year old very happy. He was not made fun of at school and made it through the day with a smile on his face. Praise the Lord for that!! Hated the thought of him being tortured even if it was his own stinking fault.

Carson decided to buzz his own head last night.. 3 Stooges or what?? UGGG!!

Dad ran him to the hairdresser before school so that he would not be TORTURED and made fun of.

Definitely better although I miss his hair!!

Ready to face the kids at school.

Maddie before!

Maddie after!

Kenna before!

Kenna after!

Jack before!

Jack after!!

Fresh, Clean, and ready for the Holidays!! As a few friends said last night it will be a funny story in 20 years!!

Day 163... Chocolate Dipped Cones

Daddy was in charge of fun tonight. That usually means some type of food will be involved. He took them to DQ for a chocolate dipped cone. Yum!! It is something he remembers his parents would do for fun with him when he was a kid.

The night ended on an even better note when my friend replaced a broken Wii Game for them. They are all still up playing and having fun!! Thanks Ms. Tiffany they feel like Christmas has come a little early!! :)

Day 162.. Crazy Turkey's!!

Tonight was make a turkey night.. I showed the kids several different ideas I had seen on Pinterest and then we gathered tons of craft supplies and all got to work. At this stage in the game with kids from ages 7-11 I feel like they need to be shown a few ideas. Then, just do what you want to do, and make something that resembles a turkey. The good, the bad, the ugly who cares?? My only rule was you had to try to make a turkey. The results varied from WOW GREAT to hmmmm, interesting. Enjoy our 2011 Crazy Turkey's!!

Say Gobble Gobble!!

The Family in order. Daddy, Mom, Kenna, Jack, Carson and Maddie!!

Daddy get's the winner, winner turkey dinner award. Loved his version of a turkey made out of a paint stick, foam, pipe cleaners, and paint. GREAT JOB BABY!!

The mama turkey on the other hand looks as though she is being held up at a bank. She also seems confused as to her identity. A turkey, an eagle, an owl??? Psycho turkey!!! I think that is it, and fits my life to a perfect T!! John's comment was "eyeliner gone bad"!! LOL!!

2011 Crazy Turkey's!!
