She's all in braids!
Taygan kind of has some weird hair. It's curly in the back & pretty straight in the front. She loves the curls, but unfortunately we don't have time to curl it everyday. She decided I needed to braid it after her bath tonight so the front would match the back. I have to say she did look cute Tuesday morning!

To end our wonderful Thanksgiving holiday, we got to see some friends who we haven't seen in about 4 years. They live in Arizona, so obviously it's hard for us to get together. They have family in Mississippi & were there for the weekend. On their way back to Arizona they stopped in OKC to meet us & have dinner. We had such a fun night visiting with them & meeting their 2 daughters for the first time. Their oldest is 2 1/2 & the other is just a few weeks old.
Love the Benge's, so glad we got to spend soem time with y'all!

Culbreath family Thanksgiving.
We always get together with my mom's side of the family on the Saturday after Thanksgiving, which seems to work out perfect since there are so many of us. It's very rare everyone is able to make it, but we are thankful for the ones who are able to. We had a great time tonight eating, playing games, & enjoying each other's company.
There's no way I could post all the pictures we took, so I'm just going to pick a few from the evening.

Aunt Louise & Uncle Wayne working hard at the game we were playing
Steve, Lori, & Tyler
We are all now a little smarter... :)

HAPPY TURKEY DAY!!
We started out the day feeding our faces at Chey's moms house in Coleman. She always makes the yummiest food & way too much of it. Both of Chey's brothers were there and all their families. It was nice to have everyone together, which is really hard to do sometimes with everyone's busy schedules.
Dakota, Tay, & Momo
And this is how I ended the day! Very tired & ready for some food from IHOP. My best friends from high school, Sara, Shan, & Alissa, make an annual event of Black Friday shopping. It's always so much fun when we get together, despite the crazy crowds, long lines, freezing weather, & late night hours of shopping. This year we added a couple, Shan's daughter Morgan, what a trooper! And, Sara's daughter, Taylor!
Today I have so much to be thankful for, awesome family & friends, food on the table, a roof over my head, health, etc. The list could go on & on. Especially though thankful for a loving God who provides all of this for me.

I've been waiting forever to watch this movie because all my friends have been talking about it. I'm always a year or two behind on watching movies, but not this time! I decided to rent it tonight & much to my children's dismay I enjoyed a little alone mommy time.
And I loved it...hysterical, made me laugh almost the entire movie!

It's Frost Ya Fanny time!! This is a 5k & 1 mile fun run at a park in Lawton, I believe this was the 17th annual. I did the 5k last year & thought the girls would like doing the mile run & the candy cane chase with Santa. At the end of the chase with Santa, each child receives a goody bag from Santa. They have the entire park lit up with Christmas lights for the event, also.
Here they are getting ready with Santa!
Yay!! So proud of Chey & the girls for doing the 1 mile race. They did a great job. Makaylie finished in 11 minutes. Tay & Chey finished in about 15 minutes, Tay had a little trouble with her asthma, but she's a tough one, she didn't let it get her down.

Woohoo, it's Twilight time!
The final book in the series, Breaking Dawn came out at the movie theater today! Katy, Steph, Missie, & I decided to make a girls night of it. We had dinner first at Logan's & had a great time laughing until we cried!
The movie was awesome & what's better is it's only part one, but we have to wait until next year to see part 2. Can't wait!!

Tomorrow at work we have our Thanksgiving lunch. We all pitch in & bring a dish & the clinic provides the meat. So, Taygan & I made some yummy smelling banana bread. She is always a big helper in the kitchen, whereas Makaylie could careless how anything gets made. Hope she finds a man who can cook one of these days!

Well, its another basketball night for us, except this one we can sit back relax, cheer & enjoy without too much stress. Our high school played Okarche tonight & they were both close, good games. I think the girls won by just a few points. The boys unfortunately did not come out ahead, but they went into overtime & only lost by 1.

Taygan & Taylor catching each other during one of the breaks in between games. They are both in pitching lessons!
Gettin' ready to smack that ball...
So proud of our lil Riots today! They started playing at 9 am & didn't finish until 10pm tonight. They played some pretty awesome teams & were able to hold their own! We ended up getting 2nd in this tournament, something we are all very happy about. I know the girls wanted 1st because they won rings, but they have come so far as a team they have nothing to be disappointed about.
GREAT JOB YUKON RIOT!!

Love this girl! My friend Brooke & I don't get to see each other very often, but we always pick up where we left off. Tonight we had a great dinner at Red Lobster, even though we end up talking too much & the waiter has to harass us a million times before we order!
Ok we both agreed this pic of us is not the greatest but it's gotta be the lighting right?? haha

Tonight is our high school's first basketball games of the season. Makaylie's & some of the kids in her music class sang the National Anthem to kick the night off. Of course they did great!
Special thanks to Mrs. Vickie Jackson, our music teacher. She does an amazing job day in & day out, teaching our kids not only the joy of music, but life lessons they will always remember.

Mmmmm ice cream! There are still a few free things left, like the mini ice cream cone at McDonald's in Chickasha. I know not all McD's do this but I'm glad ours does. My girls love it. It's perfect for after shopping which is what we did a little of tonight. We originally went to find a shirt for the Veteran's Day Program at school Thursday. We didn't find the shirt, but complete outfits for each girl. Guess that's what happens when you get three females shopping together.
Just a side note, we have had tornadoes today! Yes in November, CRAZY! Oh & earthquakes!

Day 36, Saturday, November 5, 2011
Momo, Chey's mom as we call her, came to spend the weekend with us. We have enjoyed a quiet Saturday at home playing games. This is one of Taygan's favorite, Chickenfoot. Momo has never played it before, so we were showing her the ropes. She looks very intense I have to say.
Ok, I know this a little extreme a picture for what we had here, but I thought I needed to mention this little earthquake we had tonight. It was a 5.6 on the Richter scale which is pretty amazing for OK. I have to say it was a feeling I had never experienced before. It didn't scare me, but it was very interesting. You just never know what the good Lord is going to surprise us with :)

It's another night of Am-Po basketball. I'm loving watching Makaylie improve each game. It's so nice to see her have a desire to be involved in something & care enough to try her best. I think though having her daddy coaching her is great motivation. She's always been a momma's girl, but she sure loves that daddy of hers.
