zoolights

The Saturday after Thanksgiving Lauren and I joined a few friends and went to zoolights.  It was great night to go.  Not cold and not too many people.  It was a fun night.

School Pictures

I love school pictures.  They are never the best but they are always so fun to look at over the years.  I think Lauren looks just lovely in both of them.  Lauren wanted to do retakes with her new haircut so I let her.  I am  not sure which one I like better.

Happy Thanksgiving 2012

It was a lovely Thanksgiving.  We spent the day at Don and Janine's home.  It was a nice day to spend with family and have wonderful food and conversation.

School Thanksgiving

The Tuesday before Thanksgiving Lauren's school had the annual family Thanksgiving.  This year they did a cookout instead of the usual turkey meal.  It was a nice change.  Lauren only has this year and next year at Cherokee so this is one of my last ones  It was fun to spend the lunchtime with Lauren and her friends.

Fall Time

The weather finally changed this weekend and we got to wear fall/winter clothes.  It was even a bit cold!  I love seeing my beautiful girl in boots and a dress.  She looked so pretty this morning before church.

Signs of Halloween

Halloween

For Halloween Lauren and I went to one of her friends home for a nice dinner and then we went trick or treating.  After going around their neighborhood we stopped by Janine and Don's neighborhood for a quick visit.  It was another great Halloween and Lauren really scored with the candy!!
