Flashback Friday

This was Palmer J's first Christmas, and we celebrated at my parents' house. They were so little!

Camden apparently opened gifts in just her undies!

Brooks fell asleep with a candy cane in his mouth!

Peej could barely grab...that was his little turtle! (Look at the concentration!)

Me & my "Santa baby"! ;-)

Happy Anniversary, Mom & Dad!

Today is my parents' 37th Anniversary!!! They are crazy and funny and wonderful all at the same time. They have instilled such great qualities in me, and in turn I am passing that down to my kiddos. (Even all the Fred jokes!)
I love you, Mom & Dad, or now, Meems & Pops! God has blessed you to have so many wonderful years together, and has blessed all of us around who are lucky to be your children/grandchildren!

EYES!

When Palmer was 2, he developed a love for Thomas the Train. He would sit and watch those little stories over and over. If you've ever watched them, you know really the only parts of their face that moves are their eyes. Palmer's favorite was when the eyes would go round and round, quite quickly. He would then turn to someone and just say, "EYES!" So I reminded him of that, and he said, "Look mama, I can do those eyes." This is what I got. Hilarious!!! (Can you say slow motion eyes?) ;-)

Seaworld on Thanksgiving Day!

This Thanksgiving was one unlike I've ever had...no eating good, homemade food, no watching a football game, no naptime. Nope, none of that...but who needs a turkey when there's SHAMU??? ;-)
Our good friends from Norman were in Orlando for the Thanksgiving week. They had originally said they would come up to our house for Thanksgiving, but then had the thought that Seaworld would be a great place to go on that day instead. We decided to go, and had a blast. The kids had never been, and I hadn't been since I was 10 (when Fred & Sherri drove us from good ol' Woo ALL THE WAY to Orlando!), so it was fun! I enjoyed all the activities...but when Shamu splashed all the folks sitting in the first 10 rows, I laughed so hard! It was awesome! Anyhoo, not a traditional Thanksgiving, but one filled with lots of great memories!!!
Brooks, Camden, Palmer & our friend Preston

Shamu Stadium...pretty impressive

The kids really enjoyed every show!

Love the trainers and all the tricks with those mammoth animals. So cool!

A Walton Family Thanksgiving!

Wordless Wednesday...My Swimming Beauty!
