Thanksgiving, Caitlyn’s Birthday, Snow Day and more!

December 16, 2008 jakencatesmom

So, I’ve been a very bad blogger lately!   I have some pictures to post, and some stories to tell.  I will try and keep it short!

We had a wonderful visit with Wayne’s mom, Kathy, for Thanksgiving.  We showed her a lot of New Mexico while she was here.  Wayne and the kids took her to Santa Fe, and then all of us went on a roadtrip to Ruidoso and White Sands.  We celebrated Thanksgiving early with a delicious meal made by Kathy and Caitlyn.  Caitlyn was quite the helper, even making the green bean casserole all by herself!  She loves to be in the kitchen!

This past weekend, we celebrated Caitlyn’s birthday with a little party. The kids had fun, and Caitlyn loved playing with all of her friends.  We had princess plates, princess games, princess wrapping paper and pink lemonade!  Very Caitlyn, indeed!

Finally, today we have a snow day!  No school!  Hooray…the kids were bundled up early and playing outside.  Jacob hasn’t come in all morning, and Caitlyn goes out for 5 minutes, then back in, out, then back in.  Needless to say this involves a lot of “bundling up” and then “undbundling”.  I suppose when you are the birthday girl (today is actually her birthday), you can drive your mother crazy with such requests!  :)

We are anxiously awaiting Saturday, when we get to head out to California. It will be a much needed visit with my family.  My biggest prayer is that the roads are clear so we have a safe and easy trip.   

Enjoy the pictures!

    Love the photos from the snow and Caitlyn’s 4th birthday! Can’t believe that she’s 4 already and an accomplished cook, too. Green bean casserole is a Thanksgiving staple. We plan on seeing you guys next week – can’t wait!
