Holiday Lights 2009

Darin added some new additions to our lawn this Christmas. We welcome an alligator, well, we do in Florida and a golfing Santa. Can you believe he found that one?

Thanksgiving 2009

Every year we drive to Perry, Georgia were my Aunt Terrie lives. Not only do we go to Perry, my Nana's entire side of the family goes. Every year on our way, we stop at Disney World. But this year, we went to Magic Kingdom and the monorail was broken plus it was raining. So, everyone had to ride a bus to the park. Once we got to the ticket booth we decided to leave. Instead, we went to Ripley's Believe it or Not Museum. After the museum, we headed to Perry. The weather was beautiful, I played with all my cousins, and held new baby Owen (or as Mason calls him, O Daug).

Homemade Butter

Mason was taught how to make homemade butter in his second grade classroom. He decided to try it at home. You need heavy whipped cream, salt, and a clean marble. You have to shake it for 2o minutes (take breaks when needed). You must take out the marble and then, enjoy!

Old Florida Festival

Today we attended the Old Florida Festival in Naples. The kids witnessed re-enactments of Florida's history. I had to laugh at Mason's reaction to the sounds of the guns and cannons.

Middle School Concert

Tonight was Mackenzie's first middle school chorus concert. Mackenzie invited her elementary school music teacher and he came to listen to the beautiful songs. A nice time was had by all!

Halloween Happenings

There have been three evenings of Halloween activities for the Morgans. On Thursday, we attended the Fall Festival at Mackenzie's new middle school. Friday, Mackenzie attended her first middle school costume dance. Finally, a cookout with good friends and trick or treating in the neighborhood last night. After all this excitement and the time change, this morning we are are feeling a little similiar to our carved pumpkin, yuck!
