"Christmas Around The World"

Once again we ALL participated in the 2012 Lighted Christmas Parade in Downtown Brenham "Christmas Around The World" that took place November 30. Ryan pulled the trailer full of kids for both St. Paul's and Salem's Sunday School. The weather was fabulous and the sidewalks were packed full of people. 

St. Paul's Frisky Frogs (2 year olds) represented Bethlehem. Mallory was dressed as Mary.

Dalton rode the float for Salem Sunday School.

Thanksgiving

Pretty pround moment. On Thanksgiving Day Dalton learned to ride with no training wheels and Mallory finally learned to pedal. She has now asked for a Minnie Mouse Bike for Christmas.

The Krause 1st Graders enjoyed their Thanksgiving Feast on November 20.

Soccer 2012

Soccer 2012 is a wrap! Dalton played his last U8 soccer game on November 20. After the game we celebrated the Texans season with a pizza party and handed medals.

Mallory's 3rd Birthday Party ~ Friends

We celebrated for a second time on Sunday, November 18 (Mallory's actual Birthday) with her class friends at Fireman's Park. If I had requested perfect weather two weekends in a row in November I would not have been so lucky. The weather was gorgeous and those little girls and boys had so much fun running, sliding, swinging and climbing.

Mallory's 3rd Birthday Party ~ Family Style

We celebrated Mallory's 3rd Birthday with family and close friends on November 11. What better way to celebrate #3 than in true 'Royal' fashion. From jewels to crowns, pink to purple the royal princess was in heaven at least for the day.

Her royal self sneaking a cupcake before the party even started.

The YUMMO pork steaks. A meal fit for a princess was in order for the night.

Grannie and Mallory

Oh yes and we can't forget what happened on this night. A&M took down #1 Alabama at home. This was definitely worth celebrating. It was a great day for a birthday party and football!
