Noelle’s last round of blood work came back today, all within the normal range! We finally have closure and are so thankful for our healthy 3 1/2 year old who adds rubber bands to her bracelets to be like the teenagers!
What a wonderful Thanksgiving! At the end of our family stroll around the new neighborhood, Noelle looked up at the moon and said, "Happy gobble gobble day, Mr. Moon!"
We started our first Thanksgiving tradition in our new house of lining our driveway with turkey luminaries. We had so much fun working outside together!
It is a wonderful sunny day in north Texas!
Noelle found these orange flags in our yard (who knows where) and started her own decorating. She’s always thinking outside the box!
Love love love this picture of Anna Kate hamming it up for the camera!
So proud!
Noelle doing more decorating on our window with a dried up pansy. Seriously, she’s always so creative!
Can’t wait to see the turkey feathers on the sacks all lit up tonight!
Our sweet and simple Thanksgiving! We are having the Pond family over for football and supper tonight. Good times!
Play time at home! I want to cry at how busy and tired I am, but the girls are giving me so much grace. They play and laugh and are so happy! Their cheerful spirits and giggles lift me up!
These are pictures from Anna Kate’s newborn shoot with Sara Bella Photography. I can’t believe how much she has already grown in 8 short months. How we love her so!!!
We’ve been laughing and cuddling a whole bunch!
I forgot to post a picture of our living room on the tour…
We’re all really exhausted!
The entryway niche is a special place we made for Granny’s lilac painting.

Our much appreciated card table. We are looking for a breakfast nook table, but we can’t find what we are looking for, although we really haven’t had the time to do much looking. Until we get unpacked, we will be treasuring our little card table!
We were so busy moving I only took a couple pictures of the girls on move-in day! This is Noelle when she first saw her room on Saturday night!
She’s been begging for a Little Mermaid dress, so we had it in the trunk in her room as a surprise when she got there. She immediately found it and had it on in no time!
Sweet Anna Kate was just going with the flow.
So playful and happy!
Aunt Sharon and Bekah watched the girls all day while we were moving. They even brought home turkey cookies and supper for us! Thanks Prince family – we love you and can’t tell you how thankful we are for all of your help!
