Giving Thanks

We didn't travel to Louisville, KY this year for Turkey Day. Instead we went to Bremen, GA and ate turkey with Laura's family. Last week, Elle had her Thanksgiving recital at MCA Pre-K. She and her classmates performed 3 tunes. Afterwards, we ate a small meal together.

We talked Elle's cousin, Kayleigh into wearing Elle's indian outfit from last year and pose for this pic. She was a good sport!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Creekers in Woodstock

Special thanks to Dan and Wen for hosting 25 of us plus a gaggle of other neighborhood kids today! It was great to see Conor and Owen who we don't get to see as often. It didn't take 5 minutes before all the old stories were retold.

Evan Looks Like Everyone

Us Creekers have always felt that Evan could be a Hollywood double. Reason being - Evan looks like everyone.

Reason #1: Evan looks like Sean Penn

Reason #2: Evan looks like Josh Charles (aka "Knox Overstreet in Dead Poets Society)

Reason #3: Evan looks like Wayne Brady

Reason #4: Evan even looks like the kid on the Pampers wipes package

So there you have it. Based on this well-rounded, well-researched study, Evan DOES look like everyone! Heres looking to next weekends' Creeker Reunion!!!

Halloween 2008

I am so glad Elle likes Halloween as much as I do. I am starting to get worried that my little girl is goth in training, though. Her favorite ride at Disney World is The Haunted Mansion. Her favorite movie of late has been The Nightmare Before Christmas and one of her favorite shows has been The Addams Family. She is already asking to be Wednesday Addams next year. She has the dark hair and pale skin down pat already.

It was a good night of trick-or-treating. We left out after the first wave of kids came by the house. We left a bowl of candy on the porch along with the Halloween playlist I created playing on the boom box. Really wish I could have seen the faces when the transition from Disney World Halloween music to The Misfits occurred! I was a bit disappointed by the number of "blacked out" houses that were not participating, but Elle didn't know any different. If only we were Mexican so that we could celebrate Dia De Los Muertos tomorrow. I love their traditions.
