Happy Thanksgiving

Happy Thanksgiving from our Little Turkeys!

Meggie with her friend Weezer. I loved it when she kept trying to read to him.

Some Turkey Shots





 We were blessed to have 15 adults and 8 children as part of our Thanksgiving feast.  I was just happy to have plates and seats for everyone. My grandmother would have been proud!




 I just love our Thanksgiving turkey hat and am a little sorry this might be my last baby for it, but I certainly will be happy to pass it on!







 We are certainly thankful for all our blessings of family and friends and especially thankful for Brian's Dad's upcoming surgery.  Hoping for health in the year ahead and a great Christmas to go with a great Thanksgiving.

Sisters

One of the sweetest things in my life -- my two little girls and how good they are to one another.  I know first hand how special and wonderful it is to have a sister and it makes me so happy to see my little girls developing such a special relationship.





 The girls are becoming fast playmates and they always look out for each other.  One of the cutest things is that they call me Mother Dear and each other Darling Dear.


 As you will see in this post we do a pretty good job of matching them.  They pretty much wear matching outfits everyday!  That's the fun of having two little girls.




Kate is always giving Megan a helping hand.  Megan adores everything Kate does and wants to be just like her!






 Here are the girls in matching outfits that were mine and my sister's at a restaurant we went to as kids.



You know you have two girls when you do laundry and you have one load of dark, one of whites, and one of pinks!




My two Ballerinas!






Snuggling!




 Holding hands -- that makes my heart so happy!
I love it when they tell each other, "I love you forever.  I like you for always.  Forever my Megan/Kate you'll be."  The other cute thing they say is, "I love you as high as God."  They of course have their not so nice moments, but thankfully those are becoming less and less.



I hope the girls will always be close and remember how much fun they had growing up and what they meant to each other.  I love them and my own little sister!

Our Little Pumpkins





Halloween has become quite the occasion at the Davies house.  With 5 different Halloween events we get our fair share of costume wearing, trick or treating, and candy eating.  Perhaps my favorite is the preschool Halloween parade.  All the classes walk around the gym several times in their Halloween finest and the kids soak up all the attention.  They all appear to feel like little celebrities.  The girls are thrilled with all the Halloween related shows, their favorite being Spookly the Square Pumpkin.  We had a great time and were so lucky to have some great visitors in Gammie and Pop Pop.  It is always awesome to have them, but especially so for the week of Halloween fun.


The girls both loved their costumes.

Kate wanted to be Cinderella Wedding as she called it, and its fitting because she is so in to weddings.  The other day she told me, "When its my wedding we are going to go shopping together for my dress.  All the dresses are pretty but I want the best one."  She makes me smile.

Megan loved being Ariel, her favorite princess and all the accessories that went with her costume.



Kate was really into posing in her dress.


Megan had the best Ariel light up high heels that she clomped around in for hours.

The Parade!
