3 Things and 3 Days of Rain

Three things:
1. Doing a little blog surfing while Hadley stalls for her Sunday nap and ran across a little joke. I think it is important no matter who you pull for in College Football to appreciate a pretty good joke even if your team is the joke! Found this one and it made me chuckle: How are Possums and Auburn alike? They play dead at home and get killed on the road!!!
2. Go to www.mylifetime.com and upload a picture of yourself, then play with the total beauty makeover, too funny!!!
3. Rain, Rain go away come again another day!! Daddy the pasture looks like a swamp and the horses look sad. Three straight days of rain, at least they have dry stalls to stand in!!

Who knew??

Tonight I took Hadley to see High School Musical 3. I really wasn't sure what to expect, she is extremely active but is such a couch potato when it comes to anything on the Disney channel. She had seen the first two here at home and danced through the better part of both. Wayne and I both explained to her that she had to sit quietly and couldn't say anything. On the way to the movie I was asking her if she knew what was going to happen, she had it all down and even knew we were suppose to get popcorn. She did really well and sat still through the whole thing. About half way through she climbed over in my lap and snuggled, so sweet. After the movie, I asked her what her favorite part of the movie was, "ummm, uhhh, ummm, uhhh the zebra, the lion and the giraffe and the hippo." You may be scratching your head at this point, we did go see HSM3 and none of these are in HSM3. They were in the previews for Madagascar2. Who knew there is someone in the world that enojoys the endless previews that play before the actual movie???

Alabamer Thanksgiving

We've just gotten back home from our trip home to Alabama, or Alabamer as Hadley has taken to calling it. The trip down was a slow go, I think everyone on earth converged on Atlanta Wednesday afternoon. We have never seen so much traffic and for so much of the drive. Below are a few snaps from our trip and from our visit with Santa in the Park this afternoon. First is Hadley and her Nana Vicki, in their "tent"on BellBell's bed. They were looking at bird books and Hadley was talking Nana Vicki's ears off.

I have no idea what she is doing here, I do know she thought she was the funniest thing pranking her PawPaw.

Anytime we go to Alabama, the thing Hadley looks forward to the most is playing tea with her PawPaw. He will sit there with her as long as she is interested.

PawPaw is teaching Hadley the proper way to hold a tea cup.

We had pictures in the Park with Santa this afternoon and Hadley did her part. She went right up and sat in his lap for her "official" photo, I am so pleased not to be a part of this year’s picture. Below are a few snaps of her in the park. Clearly, her sassy boots have gone to her head, what a little poser. The color is off in several of my photos, my camera was being very temperamental and I had to take what I could get.

The North Pole

Last night we went to Stone Mountain and the girls had a blast. Hadley kept asking me if we were going to the North Pole, since Santa was going to be there. We saw a Christmas Show, ate a Holiday Meal, saw the Polar Express 4D Experience, visited with Santa Claus, made cookies in the Snow Angels Ice Castle and then watched the laser show. Hadley's favorite part was Santa Claus, she kept giving him hugs, it was so sweet. I know my favorite part was the Polar Express 4D Experience. We were on the second row and it was awesome!!!!!!! I grabbed Wayne several times because it startled me.

THE GIRLS ARE READY TO GO!

ARM IN ARM, LEADING THE WAY!

I love SANTA!

Cookie FUN!

YUMMY!!

Sweet Pink Elf

Thursday night, Wayne got the Christmas tree out and put it up for us. I got to work with my pink little elf and we now have our tree up and are ready for Christmas. Hadley was such a sweet little helper, so gentle with all of the breakable ornaments and all of them were her favorite. I can't wait for this holiday season. So much FUN!!!! Today we are off to Stone Mountain, Hadley and I are so excited, Wayne is a little less excited, but we will have a good time I'm sure.
