Dylan's School Thanksgiving Feast

Dylan's Class

I had the pleasure of serving a Thanksgiving feast to 21 kindergartners today. It was such a blessing to watch and listen to the children in Dylan's class this morning. Before they ate, the teacher went around the table and had each child share what they were thankful for. I so enjoyed listening to each sweet little voice and then filling their bellies with turkey, stuffing, rolls, veggies, and pumpkin pie! It is amazing how much food a 5-year old can consume!!!

The table was set for a delicious feast!

Build-A-Bear Birthday Party

On Saturday night Dylan went to Sophia's birthday party at Build-A-Bear with his whole class. Dylan picked a dog, and named him Batdog after the Batman t-shirt that he chose for him. Kendall went along and was very good the whole time.

Meet Batdog

Kendall was wide awake when we arrived.

She fell asleep half way through the party in a position that says, "I'm not asleep...just resting my eyes."

A Bunko Lingerie Shower

Last night the Bunko Babes surprised Jen with a lingerie shower. We had so much fun watching her open all of her Sexy Little Things! Unfortunately, my camera's batteries died, so I didn't get too many pictures. We all wish Jen luck on her 14 hour drive to Florida to tie the knot!!! Congratulations Jen and Chris!!!

Halloween & The Zoo Boo

We all had a blast this weekend with all of the Halloween festivities. Dylan and I dressed up as pirates, Kendall was Minnie Mouse, and Dave was "A Man with Hair". :) On Friday morning I volunteered to help out at Dylan's school harvest party which was lots of fun. At 6pm, we hit the streets for trick or treating with Ella and Joey, and at the end of the night we drove over to Amy and Sam's house to get the kids together for a bit. Then on Saturday night we went to the Zoo Boo for more trick or treating and a frightful train ride.

Halloween Eve

Daddy and Paw Paw took Dylan to school tonight for a special evening with the witch from Pungo. He had his face painted and enjoyed some treats. Afterwards, Paw Paw, Nana, and Dylan carved a jack-o-lantern and toasted pumpkin seeds.

Navy JAG Dining Out

Last night Christina and I attended a Navy JAG Dining Out event, and we had a great time. It was a unique experience for two civilians, as I think we were the only non-military/non-military spouse couple in attendance. Fortunatly for us, the "Mess," "President," and "Vice President" did not "Fine" us or make us drink the "Grog." Actually, I think I would have liked to have a cup of Grog. It was great to see the five services all in attendance and enjoying an evening together.
