Happy Thanksgiving!

This year Thanksgiving was at our house. We had both sides of the family over. I must say, that the turkey came out delicious and very moist. I was very proud of myself!!

Our Last Tailgate!

So this year we ended up tailgating 4 times before the Bears games. This last game with the San Diego Chargers was our fourth and last time this season. We, of course won the game 31-20, BUT we lost Cutler with a broken thumb. I would have preferred losing the game, if it meant that Cutler was still playing. Oh well, that's the game of football.

GO BEARS!

tailgated with our cousin Freddy

Also with Adri, and a couple of her friends

The Cordova Sisters!

Today, the girls had their first tennis lesson. We signed them up at the Midtown Tennis Club. They were so excited to start and even more excited afterwards. Get ready Serena and Venus, here come Eva and Sofia!!

Our Godfamily

On Saturday, we had the Scott family over for dinner and for the kids to play. The girls had so much fun together, and even the boys found some fun things to play with amongst all the girly stuff. It was great having them all here!

Happy Halloween!

This year for Halloween, Eva was Snow White and Sofia was Supergirl. They had their usual halloween party at school and then we went trick-or-treating with their cousin Alex.

So much fun, so much candy!!

Some things you never outgrow

So when the girls were about a year a half old I put them inside a box to play. Well, this time around, they put themselves in the box. I guess somethings you never outgrow

Tailgating

Last Sunday, we tailgated for the Bears vs. Minnesota Vikings game. It ended being a great fall day, with no rain and delicious food courtesy of Rick. Plus, Herb came into town to join us, so that made it even better. The Bears won 39-10!!

GO BEARS!!!

Rocket Run!!

This was the girls' second time doing Rocket Run. For preschool and kindergarten, the kids just run around the parking lot, but since it was raining, they ran around the gym.

Thank you to all of you who donated money for this fundraiser!

Eva and Sofia really appreciate it!!

the girls' class all lined up

Flowergirls

This past Saturday, Oct.8th, Rick older brother, Mani got married to Jennifer Craig. The girls were lucky to be part of the wedding, serving as flowergirls. Not only was it a beautiful day, it was a beautiful ceremony and a fun reception. And the girls...dancing machines!!! I was worried before the wedding, that they weren't going to last the whole reception, but they proved me wrong. They dance the WHOLE ENTIRE NIGHT, from 8pm, when the music started, to midnight, when they kicked us out!! Yep, they definitely take after mama!!
