CATHEDRAL WINS STATE!
Connor and I went to the big game and had lots of fun!
I love the new stadium and Connor LOVED all the junk food (ok - so did I...HA!)  
He was very well behaved and I am so happy we went!  GO IRISH!

I LOVE you 2x, Con!

Happy Thanksgiving!
2008
We spent the day at my mom and dad's - it was lots of fun! Aunt Colleen was there and  most of the Pettygrove family.  Kelly, Dave and Cooper came for a little while.  The food was delicious and the company was super!  It was such a nice day, that the boys even got to play outside for a bit!

 ALL my boys and me! I have SO much to be thankful for!

My patient Aunt Sharon played cards with Jeannie, Connor and Danny for quite sometime! They loved it! So did I :)

Connor and Mommy sharing some snacks!

Danny and Daddy sharing some more snacks - healthy ones - that's my boy, Danny!

Grandparents' Day!
Mom Mom and Pop Pop went to Grandparents day at Connor's school.  They watched him sing a song with his class, after mass and then they got to go to the cafeteria and have muffins.  This was Connor's first official performance ~ he wanted to wear a tie! He was so handsome and he did a great job!  His class sang, "Jesus Loves Me".

Thank you, Mom Mom and Pop Pop for being Connor's special guests!
WE LOVE YOU 2 TIMES!

Oh Christmas Tree!
The boys really enjoyed decorating the tree this year!  They were really quite precious trying so hard to be careful and put the ornaments on just right - who cares if 75% of the ornaments are hanging off the bottom (which before kids...I couldn't STAND!) We had holiday music going on and the rugby match on MUTE!!! Everyone was happy :)

Great job, Danny!

Two happy little boys!

Perfect!

Christmas Decorating Day!
Putting up the Christmas decorations is one of my favorite days of the year.  And doing it with the boys even makes it more special~I get so excited!  Connor and Danny couldn't wait to put everything up.  Each time I pulled a different decoration out of the box...it was like Christmas morning to them.

All that works makes us HUNGRY!  Connor made mini pizzas at school on Friday and he wanted to make them at home...YUM!  He did a great job.

I'm so glad that Connor had the idea to make them at home because Danny had just as much fun!  He LOVED it.  Easy with the cheese, Danny Boy!

WOW - those look delicious :)

After Danny's nap...Connor and I were ready to make something else yummy to eat.  The boys helped me make brownies.  They were mommy's BEST helpers in the kitchen today!
