Halloween.

Ok. So I'm not so good at blogging. I always have good intentions of doing it but it never happens...sorry.
Here are some pictures of Halloween. We were in Dallas with Ava. This was our first year to have her for Halloween so it was exciting for all of us. We spent the day shopping for a comforter for her big girl bed she now has at our house thanks to Nana Syliva! She LOVES IT. After that we went to Courtney and Randy's house to carve pumpkins and hang out until it was time to go. Here is the pumpkin Shane carved for Ava. She said she wanted an angry pumpkin.

Picture time!

Ready to go trick or treating. This picture cracks me up because it shows ALL of the personalities!

We went on a hay ride around a neighborhood with Shane's family and some of their friends. It was so fun!! And then a random lady asked if she could join us. She soon realized we were not her friends she was looking for but asked if she could still ride with us until she found them...good thing we are nice people!










Ava got LOTS of candy and had so much fun. She did get tired so for the last 30 minutes we got to ride inside the truck!
Other things going on....I have a new nephew! Gavin Brooks Pimentel was born on Nov 5Th! He is soooo cute! For those of you who don't know Jeremy (my brother) was supposed to be deployed to Afghanistan at the beginning of November and he was going to miss Gavin being born. Well God had other plans and J was able to stay a month longer!!! He, along with Aimee and Gavin, were also able to come down for a visit before he deploys Dec 1. We are all happy to spend more time with him before he goes and of course see baby Gavin. After he leaves Aimee and Gavin will come back to Conroe to stay with Shane and I. I am so trilled that Gavin will be here so we can watch him grow!!!
Since Thanksgiving is this week and I only have to work two days we decided to bring Ava to Conroe. I took off Friday and mom and I drove to get her. She has had so much fun playing with Jace and seeing Bren and Gavin. Shane's parents and Granny are coming in Wednesday for Thanksgiving and will take Ava back with them. So that means....This is MY FIRST THANKSGIVING TO HOST!!! I am a bit nervous about cooking a Turkey but I have been getting much advise from my wonderful daddy on what to do...I will let you know how it all turns out. I think I am going to make Shane and Ava practice with me like that target commercial! :)
I hope everyone has a ....
HAPPY THANKSGIVIGN!
