Crazy Hair Day

It was crazy hair day at Northport Elementary and this is how Mayce's hair turned out.

Christmas Wreath

I went to a really fun party on Friday where everybody made their own Christmas wreath. I am not very crafty, but I do try. Here is what I made. Of Course I had to have "P" in it somewhere!!!

Happy 5th birthday, McKay

Here are some of the pictures from McKay's Halloween birthday party. Happy B-Day sweetie!

By the way, I finally have a facebook page under Monica Isaac Pettus (for those who have been harassing me!)

ASU Football Game

This past weekend Brent, Mayce, McKay, and I went to Alabama's homecoming game. They were playing against Arkansas State. We met Paige and Robert there (Brent's sister and brother-in-law) and had a great time. We sat with the ASU group while Paige and Robert sat with the UA folks. No matter the score (if you want to know this you will need to look it up yourself) and loss, it was fun for all.

Happy Halloween

We had a great time this year on Halloween. Not only did we trick or treat as usual, we also had a small birthday party for McKay. We all enjoyed eating, playing, and opening gifts. I am only going to show you Halloween pictures of the kids now and will send birthday pictures later.

Alabama Soccer Game

Today I took Mayce and McKay to the Alabama women's soccer game. We had a lot of fun especially Mayce. She loves playing soccer and has enjoyed watching Alabama play on tv. She gets so excited. It is fun to watch. Anyhow, Mayce was one of two little girls chosen to go on the field during halftime to compete in a competition. She and the other little girl started at half field and was spun around 10 times then had to dribble the soccer ball with their feet to the goal and back to half field, was spun around again 10 times and had to kick the ball back down the field and score a goal. The first one to do that won a great prize. Mayce won!!! She ended up winning an Alabama soccer jersey with autographs from the Alabama soccer team as well as an autographed program. Needless to say that made her day.

What does Tate like to do?

He likes to play in the cabinets!!! How cute.

More Pumpkin Pics

A few more pictures from carving our pumpkins.

Pumpkin Fun!!

Over the weekend, my parents and my Aunt Kelly came to Alabama for a visit. One fun thing we did was carve pumpkins. We had a lot of fun. Mayce, McKay, and Kelly did the carving and mom and I helped. They thought it was gross sticking their hands in the pumpkin to clean it out. Overall they did a great job and had fun doing it.

This is Mayce's friend John Henry. We went to his birthday party this past weekend. They met in Kindergarten last year and are in different classes this year. They are at the Sprayberry Center together for gifted education and have a good friend of mine for their teacher, Lori White.

Mayce and her friend Aalayah. They have been in the same class for 2 years now.

Mayce's PTA performance

Tonight Mayce had a performance at PTA. The first graders sang a few songs that they have learned and practiced. First grade is going very well for her. They are focusing on reading and math skills. She is a great reader and is doing well in math. I can't believe we are going on 9 weeks of school. She will actually be out of school this Friday and next Monday.
