Family Pics 2012

Trina Gibbons did a great job with our family pics this year. 

We were so happy that Katie, Kyle and Colin made the trip to join us.

Halloween 2012

We started the Halloween festivities at the Philharmonic learning the Thriller dace.

 John Thomas also enjoyed his party at school with his 3year old class

 He loved Ms. Rochelle's OU Princess costume

After his class party it was off to Mimi and Papi's

Next up was Trick or Treating with the Cousins

We even ran into his best buddy Parker on the way.

It was a great Halloween!!!

OU v Texas

Daddy wanted to go to the Red River Rivalry again this year, so off we went. 

This year the Roll's joined us for the fun. 

John Thomas talked about seeing Big Tex for about a month. 

The morning before we left he said, "Mama, I am so excited!"

 He went in to watch the game for a bit and then joined us at the Fair.

Parker and him had a lot of fun learning about agriculture

They also loved the petting zoo

After seeing the animals it was off to the rides  

We had a blast! Did not hurt that OU beat Texas by a landslide either :)

Thomas the Train

John Thomas loves riding on Thomas the Train. 

It was a rainy ride...

Even with the rain, we still had a good time.

Visit with Cousin Colin

We had a great time with Uncle Kyle, Aunt Katie and Cousin Colin.

 John Thomas was so proud that his cousin was able to go to watch him play soccer.

 We also found out that John Thomas has another boy cousin on the way!!

Showing off their matching shoes.

It was a fun visit.  Can't wait to see them again in December.

Brookhaven Run

John Thomas was so excited to run a race just like his Daddy.

 Hanging out with Andy Alligator.

Andy ran the race with him.

 Getting his instructions

And he was off!!

We think we may have another runner in the family.

STL Visit

Since Mimi and Papi have moved to Norman we don't get to see Uncle Brian, Great Nana, Grandma and Grandpa as much as we would like. We had a great visit with everyone, it was just too short!

We had a great time with Nana eating lunch and shopping.

 John Thomas really enjoyed our room with a view!

 Putting together his new Cars puzzle with Brain and Grandpa John

Last minute swim before the journey home.

Hope to get back to STL again soon!
