Guess what? Mommy, Granddaddy, Grammy and I went to the mall the other night to see them light a giant Christmas tree! Daddy had to work. :-(
First, we had dinner (PBJ for me, thank you very much!). Then, we walked around to some of the stores while a barbershop men's choir sang songs next to the tree. A nice lady was handing out plastic sticks that light up to all of the children and she gave me one, too!
Then, when we sat down to rest, a boy came over from a candy shop and gave us all free caramel suckers! They lasted a long, long time! I also found out that they stick to your mittens if you're not careful!
Finally, at 7:00 p.m., the BIG MOMENT was here... Mommy gave me a boost onto her shoulder so I could see over the people's heads. Then, we all counted...10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1 and the tree lit up with hundreds and hundreds of different-colored lights! It was so pretty! The choir sang Christmas songs and we had so much fun!
Today, I got to spend the afternoon with Granddaddy and Grammy because they had the day off from work. I even get to spend the night with them, so Mommy and Grandmommy can get an early start cooking in the morning! I'm going to watch the parades on TV with Granddaddy.
Then, we're all going to have the family Thanksgiving dinner tomorrow afternoon at our house! This year, they're going to let me eat some grown-up food like everybody else!
Happy Turkey Day!
Love,

Trick or Treat!
Halloween THIS year was even better than LAST year! Can you believe it?
Maybe its because THIS year, I could walk and didn't have to be CARRIED everywhere! Free at last!
I got to wear my new Snow Queen costume and it was very warm and I was thankful for that because we spent a lot of time outside at night!
We went to the Fall Festival at Granddaddy and Grammy's church on Sunday night and I got to play lots of games and win lots of candy! I still like "picking up ducks" the best!
Then, on Halloween night, we want to another Fall Festival at a church just down the road. I got to ride on the Merry-Go-Round and pet animals in the petting zoo and we had a fun time!
We went by my cousin Caroline's house and she had on a Fairy Princess costume. We were quite a pair all dressed up in our outfits! (see photo below).
Then, we went over to Ma's house (one of my great-grandmas) and showed her my costume and she gave me something to eat. Then, we went over to my other Great Grandma's house and showed her my costume, too! She said I was just adorable!
This weekend, we're going to have Sunday lunch with Granddaddy and Grammy. Then, I have to sit on the couch between Daddy and Granddaddy to keep them apart while we watch the Cowboys and the Redskins play football on TV! I'm kinda outnumbered in this part of the country. (But, we secretly root for Dallas, don't we, Abbey?!?)
Have a safe weekend and don't forget to vote, if you're old enough!
Love,
