Second Set of Visitors and History

So the weekend after we moved in we had our second set of visitors... yay! People were so glad we were done with the apartment and they no longer had to choose between the floor of our kids' bedroom and a hotel! :) So KK and Albi came to visit us and we were thrilled to have them!

AND of course they brought sussies... 

Hi-Ho Cherry-O for Caden and a pack-n-play for Kaki's doll babies for! Awesome-sauce!

We must have played 13 games of Hi-Ho and watch Kaki put her babies to bed over and over again... those babies need a lot of sleep... clearly!

After hanging out with KK and Albi for most of the weekend, Justin and Caden slipped out for a little dude time at what would be their last football game of the season...

AND WHAT A GAME IT WAS...

First up... the tailgate...

With the G-Dawg!

Graham has several legs-up on Caden with all of the football he has attended at the ripe 'ol age of 3 months! He is already hard core like his mom and dad... and we are all proud! :)

Caden loves him a good tailgate party, especially if it includes games... bean bags, ladder ball, catch... and the like!

He loves getting to see his aunt, uncle and cuz too!

And his Nana and Bop... who are the hosts of said tailgate party... 

But we all know that Caden really goes to the games to watch the Golden Wave Marching Band...

I'm pretty sure the band members can spot "that weird kid who likes us more than the football players" from a mile away... and they are always so sweet to let us snap pics!

His favs... the cymbal crew!! He knows their routines as well as they do... 

He has high hopes of being in the band come January... since he'll be 4 and all... he is assured that that is all that is required... be four... know the routines... wear a cool hat... done and done!

Meanwhile back at the house... Kaki and KK were playing a mean game of patty-cake... Kaki loves to say ROOOOOOOLLL it, PA-PA... (or pat it)

After Kaki went to bed, KK, Albi and I stayed up to watch what would be a historic game for the Baylor Bears! I was actually getting a bit bored watching since my parents were BLOWING UP social media, tweeting and texting all about the Bears. I suddenly felt very uncool and wondered how I'd reached this point in my life where my parents were tweeting and texting and I was simply watching...what has happened to the world? The iPhone... 

And Siri... who my dad wishes was a real woman and I think might actually think she is. Bless his heart!

Well, it was QUITE a game and my three year old was ever the devoted fan and rushed the field to celebrate with the rest of Floyd Casey...

And he happened to find a few football players to hoist him up and say Sic 'Em with while Daddy snapped COPIOUS amounts of pictures!

COOLEST 3-YEAR-OLD EVER!

This weekend was the beginning of what I like to call the cold that would never end... Caden started Friday (all-star parents letting him stay out to midnight with a cold), Kaki started Saturday... Me, Sunday and Justin Monday... 

We brought on Thanksgiving with the snots and coughs and even managed to pass it to our sweet KK... 

But more on that in my next post about our Thanksgiving Travels!!
