Merry Christmas!

Amy was poking around in some files on their computer today and found these two cute videos of Emily singing along with her new piano from Christmas two years ago. So sweet! I can't believe how much she's grown. Just a little pre-Christmas post to get you in the mood. Wait....we've gotta make it through Thanksgiving first! Enjoy, anyway!
Emily Sings: Part I (PS - The 2nd song is a beautiful Enya Christmas song that she loved that year. Not familiar to everyone!)

Emily Sings: Part II (I love when she gives Abby the smackdown for touching her piano!)

Happy Halloween!

The whole family converged on the White House for our annual dinner and trick or treating ritual. We were glad that David and Aunt Liz could join us. Nice to have David living in Atlanta now so that he come for stuff like hauling the kids around the subdivision, dodging teenagers dressed as skanky genies, and handing out truckloads of candy to everyone in Newnan who stops by our subdivision to see the pirate house down the street. In case you haven't visited, you should definitely look us up for next year! The hippie and the rock star had a great time trick or treating and were overjoyed when people guessed who they were. We saw one Dad out with his son - he was dressed as Robin to his son's Batman. If Donald and I were better parents, we would have dressed as Slash and Britney Spears to match Emily's costume. Oh well, there's always next year...

Check out the rotten pumpkin. I tried to reach in and turn on the flashing light and a swarm of gnats came out to attack me. He's going down the hill into the creek tonight to be dinner for Rocky the Raccoon!

She insisted that the rubber boots were the perfect shoes to complement her outfit.

Watch out, Yoko. Abby's got flower power!
