Happy Thanksgiving to all!
I'm so thankful for my family here and afar. We've had our ups and downs this year and our share of troubles but the bond that we share is priceless. I lost my mother five years ago and my stepmother just last month. It was a hard day for many first to come without her. We send our love and support to my wonderful dad who we wish we could see more often. She was the only grandmother on my side of the family that my children had in their lives. Drew was just 9mos. when my mother passed. We always send our balloons to those we miss. Just a last week after Johns football banquet they got balloons and as we started to get into the van, John said, "Let's send them up to Grandma". My heart melted. I hope everyone had a Happy Thanksgiving. We have so much to be thankful for.
The Moore Family along with my mothers parents, my mothers sister Nancy and her husband John and his mother from Chicago.

Wow! He's 9
John had a birthday week. Aunt Susie and Uncle Danny came in from South Carolina Wednesday and had birthday dinner we celebrated with Chris' family. Thursday on his birthday Nov. 13 he shared a birthday with his teacher at school who is 32 years older than he is. We had cupcakes, ice cream and juice boxes at school. Then Thursday night we took him out to dinner. Saturday was a party with 5 friends who came over to play football out in the yard, eat hot dogs, have smores and Johns favorite a BIG cookie. Moms tired! He's had a good week.

TWO Months Old
Wow! Its hard to believe that our little princess is already two months old. She had her checkup today and weighed 9lbs 14ozs and was 21 1/2 inches long. She is doing pretty good and were getting on a routine. Praise the Lord. Somewhat of one anyway when you have 3 older brothers going every which way, we just go with the flow.
Roll Tide Roll!
My #1 Bama Fan.
First of all, thank you to my niece Abbey, for taking pictures. We took the kids to Alabama's Homecoming football game last weekend and spent the day with my niece, nephew, Kathy, my brother and his wife, Tina. We had a good time. I brought my camera but for some reason it stayed in the car. I thought about it. Do I get credit for that. Chris, myself, my brother and John went to the game while the others stayed at the house. They got to go tour the campus. Yes, Caroline loved it! UA class of 2029. WOW! That makes us feel OLD. Patrick should have gone to his first Alabama game being the only other fan in our home. He'll have to tell you why he didn't get to go. Daddy almost put him in a trash can on their way back from the bookstore. He even embarrassed John and Drew. Welcome to my world with that child. Its his way or no way. It did cost him his "first" Alabama football game. John had a good time. He is a Georgia fan but loves the sport and will go to any game.
Halloween 2008
Okay its hard to remember with four children to take pictures. Or should I say I'm too busy to think about pictures until it's too late. These are all I got on Carolines first halloween. She was a lady bug. John Drew and Patrick decided to be the same thing they were last year. Except Drew as Patrick pointed out changed from a TN football player to a Norte Dame football player this year. Well it was easy to find their costumes.
Isn't she sweet. I wish I had more pictures. We went to our next door neighbors house and then to the church for truck or trick. Caroline slept most of the night until she had a blow out in her pants. At least it was time to go home after changing her and I've learned with her to bring extra clothes. I hope she out grows this habit.
