Happy Thanksgiving and Double Trouble

So, did anyone else eat too much Thanksgiving Turkey?  This is our cousin Patrick "listening" to Todd Jr reading The Cat in the Hat Comes Back.  We had such a good time on Turkey Day!  MeMe, Foe Foe, Beeka Beeka, Uncle David and Patrick all came to our house for the day.

I am afraid this is the only shot of any of our turkey.  We all decided that Nana would love this, she is always wanting to give the boys a chicken leg to eat!  Initially, this was Todd Jr's turkey leg, but he abandoned it for playing outside so, Grant grabbed it off his plate and made it his own.








We did take some food photos.

Yes, that is fudge (homemade) icing!


Isn't this cake beautiful.  Patrick made this one!  He is an amazing chef.
Maybe we can get him to host next year:)

While Thursday was great, we actually started the week with not so nice weather, but we braved the clouds and went kite flying at the park.  I know it is hard to see, but those are a couple of Spidermans flying high over Panama City








I really did think the kite flying would be a bigger hit.  Um, it wasn't.  I guess the boys thought there would be a little more to it.  Oh well!  Todd kept trying to run with his and Grady's kept hitting the ground.
Now, Grant did not have a kite, we thought that would be a little much and he was just as disinterested as the other boys, but never fear, Grant can always find something to get into.


Like a mud puddle! 
I know it does not translate well in the photo, but he was a MESS!
I had to strip him down to his diaper to get home and the mud around here STINKS!

We really did have a good time with Me Me and Foe Foe.  We went down to St. Andrews and walked along the water and played at the playground.  We also had lunch at the Captain's Table.. yummy!  However, Foe Foe was considering not going with us since all the Harris' were decked out it their Gator Gear!  That's Right!  Go Gators!!!!!!













Todd Jr on the Monkey Bars... appropriate!


Me Me and Todd Jr trying to see who could swing higher!

Mommy, I landed in the sand!

So, you may have noticed in the title Double Trouble.  Yes, we are with out a little man right now.  This morning, Grady grabbed his monkey backpack, a sippy cup and hopped into Me Me and Foe Foe's car and headed to New Orleans!


There he is all packed, buckled and ready to go!
Apparently all was well until they hit the Florabama line... then there was an unprovoked melt down!  I spoke to Me Me a little while ago and he is okay now.
Wish Me Me and Foe Foe luck!
Again, we hope everyone had a special Thanksgiving weekend, got lots of good deals if you shopped on Black Friday (hope you didn't buy anything from Best Buy), and Congratulations to the University of Alabama Crimson Tide and our favs the University of Florida Gators... lets go grab that SEC Championship and make our way to the National Championship again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
