We are the Lamars: Turkey Time

Turkey Time

I have had the best week off. It’s been relaxing, I have stayed at home and not traveled too far, and have doted on Ford all week. He and I will both be lost without one another next week.

Wednesday

On Wednesday we played outside at Puddin and Pop’s house and fed the horses.

Then we stopped by the fire station to get some more time on the real deal fire trucks.

It sure was fun until Mr. Ethan honked the horn and scared me to death.

But it was nothing that a ride around the block couldn’t fix.

Then I found this fun toy hiding behind the fire truck and played on it a while.

Daddy bought some new boots and I decided I needed to try them on too.

Thursday

For Thanksgiving we headed to my parents house, BoomPa and Gran. My brother and his family came so Ford had a big time playing with his cousin’s, Molly Cate and Caroline. I used to worry about him being smaller than them and getting hurt but he can pretty much hold his own now. He has mastered throwing a fit so I am not too concerned anymore. I guess our newest concern is “baby boy blue”, who is the new cousin on the way. He may not be able to play with the big kids just yet.

Thanksgiving 2009... FLASHBACK

Gran wanted us to attempt to get a picture of the 3 grandkids for a Christmas card. That is easier said than done with a 4 ½ , 2 ½ and 1 ½ year olds.

Fortunately, I had some candy stashed in my purse (what good mother doesn’t?) so that helped for a bit. You can see Ford has gotten up from his seat to reload on his sweets.

Friday

Not a lot has gone on today. I got my hair highlighted, oil changed, and Ford and I did some Wal-Mart shopping. He is such a good assistant. He wants to inspect all merchandise before we purchase it.

While shopping Ford reminded me of how important it was that we buy some apples to feed the horses. No, I am not lying; he did say we needed apples. So like any good mother would do, we bought fruit… for the horses!!
