A few weeks ago we enjoyed a family outing to the Razorback basketball game.









Emery was all over the seats during the game. Thankfully no one sat in front of us.










Yelling for the hogs



Curly mullet.



Lincoln asked us all evening to see Big Red but he never came close to our seats. So at the end of the game we chased him down on the court so Linc could get his picture with him. He was so proud.



It was 9:00 by the end of the game. We carried both kids back to the car, changes them into their pj's and headed home. Both of then fell asleep quickly. When we got home and were carrying them in Lincoln woke up. I laid in bed for him a few minutes to get him settled back down and to sleep. While laying there he kept saying, "I had such a fun time mommy. Thank you for going to the razorbacks. I had a very fun time mommy. Thank you for taking me and Emmy to the game" It was the sweetest.

Thankful

This year for Thanksgiving we spent the holiday at my parent's house. We usually spend our year in Branson but decided to change it up this year. I was bummed at first to miss out on Branson but as the time drew closer I was grateful for sometime at "home."

The Thursday prior to Thanksgiving Lincoln developed a terrible barking cough. We decided to let it run it's course but by Monday I decided to take him to the doctor. She agreed it was croup and prescribed him a steroid and inhaler with the orders to return Wednesday if not better. Wednesday rolled around and he was not better and fact worse. She checked for flu, strep and even sent us to the hospital for chest x-rays. All were clear. It was just a bad case of viral croup - a.k.a. no antibiotics can help so good luck! Fantastic. We did agree to discontinue the steroid b/c that was making him
cray-cray!! Never again.

Needless to say Linc was not feeling himself. We had a low-key holiday with lazy days filled with eating and a few adventures out for Black Friday deals.

Here is our turkey



Lincoln not feeling well



Emery not wanting her picture made



All cuddled up for movie night with Papa while me, Cory and mom went to see Catching Fire.



And Emery loving her first frosty from Wendy's on the ride home. (She did get that while thing to herself. We scooped out some for her in an empty cup).



So much to be thankful for. May we never take it for granted.

The day mommy lost E's lovie in Hobby Lobby and she refused a nap. It caught up with her that evening during grocery shopping.



She is a little confused...



Lincoln got croup a few days before a Thanksgiving. During his follow-up he was still wheezing so the dr ordered an x-Ray but it thankfully came back clear.


But sharing is caring so now Emery has croup. :)
