Take that Economy

Look what showed up in our driveway on Tuesday.

And thanks to Elizabeth, and her mad negotiating skills, it hardly cost us anything.

Playing the Piano

Perhaps we have a pianist in our future? I'm just happy she's using her hands (instead of her feet) this time.

Singing Christmas Tree

This Sunday, we took the kids to their first theater production. We won tickets to see the Singing Christmas Tree, a production by Carolina Voices.

For fans of the Three Amigos.. no, the Singing Christmas Tree is not the same as the singing bush. It was actually really neat. They went through a history of "Christmas in the Carolinas" and sang songs of the different lineage that makes up our culture today. Along with the choir on a tree, they had dancing and muppets. It was lots of fun for the kids.

As entertaining as it was, Megan is one year old, so she has a short attention span. We hit her expiration around intermission, so that's when we left. We did get to see Santa on stage and sing "Santa Claus is coming to town" before we left, so it was a good way to end the show.

Feeding the ducks with Grandpa

One big perk to visiting Grandma and Grandpa in Texas is that they live right next to a nice park, complete with a lake and ducks to feed!

Happy Birthday Elizabeth!!

Cousin Jillian

While at G & G C's house, Cousin Jillian came by for a visit.

Jillian is only 5 months younger than Megan, but Megan seems like a giant around Jillian.

Megan enjoyed playing "around" her camera aware cousin.

Thanksgiving Roadtrip and Graceland

Hello blogger readers. I hope you are not still suffering from Thanksgiving overload.

Well, the Cunninghams are back home now after a long and fun trip to see the family. Over the next couple of days we'll share with you all of the fun that we had.

I'll spare you the slide show of the 345 pictures snapped this past week. I'll just post the interesting and cute pictures.

The week started and ended with a two day drive through Tennessee to see G & G Geibel. While passing through Memphis on the way to Texas, I picked up my brother who flew in just to help out with the drive. Thanks Craig!!

Since this was his first time in Memphis, we just had to stop at Graceland.

It was much smaller than I remember.



And gaudier. :)
