Thanksgiving Weekend - Lot of Food, Friends and Fun!

Whoowee! It's been a fast and furious last few days, but lots of fun I might add! It all started with a four day weekend. That's right, awhhh-yeahhh, four days of sleepin' in. I let my Mommy and Daddy sleep in until 7:30 a.m. these last few days and for me, I got plenty of sleepy. Well, I needed it and this is why. Day 1 (TG) - Wow, lots of food, friends and fun. Some friends of ours invited us over for Thanksgiving dinner and it was fabulous. There were lots of kids too and that made it even better. Now, I may have been the littlest muchkin on the block, but there was no denying that "The Manchi" was in the house when we arrived. Day 2 (Black Friday) - Mommy and I took advantage of the shopping sales, but I gotta tell you, there's some crazy shoppers out there. Rumor has it, there was people camped out at the Circuit City down the road the night before waiting for the good deals the next morning. Forget that! Instead, Mommy and I did some morning shopping, then headed home for some nappy time, then headed back out for some shoppy time. Day 3 (More shopping) - Good night, does this woman ever stop! There's only so much I can take of going around and around in shopping aisels and getting trapped in these little things they call "Fitting Rooms" (Mommy, how many things do you have to try on? Don't you know I need to stretch the Manchi legs! Don't you know I need my Manch Freedom!!!) Actually, we only did minor shopping this day and then we met up with Daddy and had some serious Yum Yum's (California Pizza Kitchen). Mommy let me have a bite of her favorite dessert there (Tiramasu) - I'm sure my tummy will not appreciate it later on, but hey, you only live once!


Going shopping...(Check out my new party shoes, I'd wear these things to bed if I could get away with it)

I wonder what's inside of here (Ooowwhh, what's that smell - Daddy must have made a recent visit here!)


Happy Thanksgiving

All tuckered out! (This is me after TG meal and playing with the kids. I had lots of fun, but it's time for nappy now!)

Happy Halloween!! (better late than never)

Sorry I am late showing you these fabulous pictures. My friends and I got together during Halloween and took these pictures. It was so much fun. I am not sure you can tell, but I am the "rose" between all those thorns!!! I am kidding. Aren't my friends really cute. Heath was in charge of making sure we all sat still for the picture (he is Bam Bam) and Kennedy was in charge of making sure that pumpkin did not move (she is Raggedy Ann). Olivia and I are just in the middle wondering what the heck that lady is waving at us. I think it is a cat, but Olivia is convinced it is a bear. Olivia is Pebbles of course and a cute one too if you ask me.

Anyway, I have some more pictures that I will show you, but just wanted to get the Halloween ones out before another month goes by.

I hope you enjoyed!!!

Me and my friends on Halloween!!

Can you guess what I am?

Visiting the Family

Okay, I should warn you... Daddy just had a birthday and mommy got him a new digital camera. Bottom line, he has been taking pictures left and right. So stand by (hopefully) for more of my musings on the blog.

This weekend is shaping up to be pretty cool. Save the fact that FSU does not know how to win a football game anymore, I have had a great time. Today, Mommy and Daddy and I went to see my Aunt Pam and Uncle Johnny in Gulfport. They have a really neat place on the water. Anyway, we all went to our favorite Italian Market and chowed down on some sammiches. They were very good. I had a pickle and it was really good too.

After lunch we went to this outdoor art show where simply got to stretch my legs. I was all over the place and man was I keeping mommy and daddy busy. After that we went and got some ice cream before heading home in time for daddy to watch the Seminoles lose. (This was not the day to get in daddy's way!!)

So now I am getting ready for bed and just wanted to say hi to my Internet fans. I hope you all have a great weekend like I am having.

Goodnight,

Gracie
