Friday iPhone Dump #191

Last weekend, we adopted a new dog. He's tiny, and cute, and the kids both really like him. Well, Jacob likes him...Hannah adores him! His name is Rocky.





He's pretty chill as you can see here.


We also bought toys to donate to Toys for Tots again and brought them to the fire station.








Rocky had to be snipped so we didn't actually pick him up until Sunday night.





M and Pa were there at the time so Jacob took advantage of having someone new to battle with.





Our silly elves. The picture doesn't do it justice but it was a "shoe-shoe" train with a lot of their toys along for the ride. Both kids loved this one.


Rocky, in his cone of shame, being carried by Hannah.


We also got to keep M and Pa's new dog for a couple of days. Hannah was really busy with two dogs to tote around.


Rocky likes to wake Hannah up from her naps!


The elves strike again! They also wanted me to tell you that wrapping a toilet is not as easy as it looks!!


On Wednesday night, we went to WinterFest at Typhoon Texas and met Frosty!


And, of course, Santa. They had JUST written letters to Santa about what they wanted for Christmas and put them into the special North Pole mailbox. So, when Santa asked what they wanted for Christmas, Jacob said "You'll just have to wait and see!!"


The crazies in jail.


My big snowman.


My little snow girl.


Frosty, again!


And pony rides.


Jacob didn't really want to do it but he really liked it!

This is a picture of Jacob in pure heaven. While we were at M and Pa's house, he and Logan spent a lot of time playing with Logan's old Star Wars toys in the shed. He would do this as long as Logan would play with him.


This is how poor Bryanna had to sleep. With Hannah almost on top of her and a lot of empty bed on the other side!


Catching the bus in the morning...in the rain!


Memaw and her grandkids!


Our elves are back and they are already being crazy!!

Last Friday was the Fall Parties for Jacob's elementary. Our theme was the Olympics and they had lots of Olympic style events to do.


Like crazy jumping.


Just a handsome boy.


Jacob and his best buddy, Chase.


The bobsled on a skateboard.


Carrying the torch.


They even had to do it on their head!


My silly little turkey.


Ready for a football game in College Station.





It was Randy's birthday and we all had fun!


Being silly.


One cool dude!





Hannah's friends Logan and Corey came over to play the other day.



And Jacob asked to hold their 7 month old baby sister!


All of the kids at our Night before Thanksgiving party.


All of the adults!


Our tailgating gang on Thanksgiving day.

All pictures this week come courtesy of Momma Groom (AKA Memaw).

Last weekend, not only did they get to spend 2 nights at the beach, Brooke and Tyler were there for one of those nights. They were so excited.

So, first, the ferry ride over.



Jacob is up there...look closely.



And, they made some friends on the ferry that let them sit on their motorcycle!



Finally at the beach, burying Hannah's feet.



All 4 of them (apparently staring straight at the sun).



Out to dinner at Stingaree!






I'm not sure why I took zero pictures this week!

When you shop with Hannah, you must pause a lot to take pictures of her with the mannequins (or, as she calls them, the girl-a-quins).


When you shop with Jacob, you must try on every superhero mask you can find. And take pictures.


They both had a blast at Chases' birthday party on Saturday.


On Sunday, Randy took them to see Trolls. Here are our cute Trolls...








Randy and Jacob spent some time trying to make Jacob look just like Kylo Ren. They did a great job and Jacob was very happy. However, he has a Kylo Ren costume that would have done the trick without dirtying a full basket of clothes. But, what do I know???


And Hannah threw on some socks and claimed she was an ice skater!
