Zach got in a few hits in between games.
The final was between Adam and Dad! Because it was a double elimination tournament Adam needed to beat Dad twice. Adam took the first game, but couldn't break the champion a second time. Dad went home with the trophy this year!! 
We need to work on sportsmanship a little bit next year, I think. =)
Dad and Megan going at it.
Tom and Adam in the quarterfinals.
Davis and Gabbie were champs on the flight to WA for Thanksgiving. We had a late flight and they were very good. I'm sure people getting on the plane were not excited about having kids on there, but we proved them wrong. We had enough seats that we all got one. Once in the air the kids watched some Mickey cartoons and sipped on their apple juice and snacked on crackers. I was able to have a seat to my own and not have somebody on my lap. Yahoo! =) They were getting sleepy by the end. We landed at 10:30 pm. yikes. But, they made it to the car -- my parents picked us up--and then sacked out on the drive home. The next day it was time to start the PARTY!!!!
Davis was ready to go~~since like last week! =)
Gabbie couldn't wait to get on!
Gabbie on Big Red.
Howdy Cowboy!! Davis on Bubbles.
Davis was insisting on being a cowboy again this year, but then he changed his mind when we were talking about it at preschool. Normally, I wouldn't welcome the change, but I was excited to get him something else. He chose Spiderman and didn't take it off for a few days. Here he is mastering his webbing skills.
Chase was spiderman, too, so they were perfect partners in crime... solving. =)
Gabbie was our little Dalmation puppy. She loved the trick-or-treating once she caught on. She insisted on carrying her own bag, which was difficult when it started to get really full. She would also linger and stay awhile whenever we went to a house who had a dog, too. She LOVES doggies!
Gabbie got this doll last Christmas but hasn't really shown interest in her until recently. She loves to carry her around, hug her, feed her, and take naps with her. She likes to give the dolly to Bob or me and we take turns holding her and loving her, then Gabbie takes her back and rocks her and pats her while she's saying, "oooh, baby." So cute.
