Thanksgiving 2011

We celebrated Marc's birthday on the 21st. We had a great Olive Garden dinner, ten had presents at home for him. Jud loves birthdays!

Thanksgiving was a nice day. We spent part of the day with friends then had a nice family dinner at home. Jud was excited that I made Nona's "homemade" hot rolls.

The day after Thanksgiving we went to the Stars game, and got to see the Stanley Cup. Jud was so excited and said someday he would hoist it over his head, but until that day..."don't touch it!!!"

WE didn't want to risk any bad luck, so none of the Criss' touched the cup, but it was really tempting.


One of our favorite Thanksgiving traditions is putting up the Christmas tree. This year we had to buy a new tree, it is really pretty and just loaded with all the beautiful ornaments we have collected. The most beautiful though is still the angel "Gabby" on top.

Hockey Fun

Jud is having a great season so far. He had his first Hat Trick of the season. Hope we have lots more.

Then he was the Jr. Starter at the Texas Tornadoes game, the moms and kids scrimmaged during the first intermission. We actually had a shot on goal but alas it was a wash, next time the mamas will win!

Happy Halloween

Jud likes Halloween, and this year he again went as a soldier. We really got our money's worth out of this costume, he wears it all the time. The real cute part of this is the tooth hanging out. Jud won't pull them out he waits for them to just fall out, lol. I guess he is more patient than he often seems to be.
