Long Update...

A lot has happened since I last posted...so, bear with me...

Two Sundays ago, Jayden and I took her first flight up to Arlington, TX to see my mom and dad. Travis and Jayden before leaving for the airport: 
Jayden drove us to the airport...
Here is a picture of her as we were waiting for the plane.

Once we got to Arlington, my best friend from college picked us up at the airport...
Then Jayden learned how to throw a football to surprise her Dad:
And she went to her first MAVERICKS GAME!!!!  We WON!!!!!
Then we had Thanksgiving!  There  were 33 people in my mother's house...that is right...chaos!  Uncle Travis spent quality time with the kiddos...
And this...well, this is just classic!
While we were all at mom and dad's, Mom couldn't wait to give Dad his Christmas present so she announced that she got him...drumroll  please...FLYING LESSONS!!!  My father...at 63 years of age is going to learn how to fly a plane.  He was in shock!! :)  

It was a great holiday and I am sooo looking forward to Christmas.

In fact, we already have our tree!  I will have to post those pictures later...

Mom took our family Christmas pictures while we were there too.  I will post those later.  We want to show Mimi the pictures first and we will see her Saturday to celebrate her birthday.  So...you will just have to wait! :P

I love all the pictures! Opa is going to have so much fun with those flying lessons! That was a great gift! In that picture of Travis and the kids, is that Cady and Abby? They look so much a like. I mean they always have, but (if that is them) now they look even more like twins. I'm so glad that y'all had a great Thanksgiving. Being with your family is the absolute best feeling in the world...even if it means a little bit of chaos! :D
