Greene Family Thanksgiving

Jonathan's side of the family had Thanksgiving early this year. Everyone got together at Dee Dee and Papa's house in Walling, Tn. We had lots of fun and lots of good food. Jackson and Harrison (the oldest cousin) enjoyed riding on the 4-wheeler, while Mackenzie enjoyed babysitting Eva (the youngest cousin). They even took some time out for raking the leaves. In keeping with tradition, we took the annual picture of Papa (Jonathan's dad) with all 5 grandchildren.

Playdate with the Cooper's

Thanks to Election Day, Jackson and Mackenzie had a two day vacation from school. On one of those days, we went to hang out with Aunt Robyn, Carson, and Cameron. They had a great time playing outside on a beautiful Fall day.

Kung Fu Cutie!

Jackson has found his calling! He recently started taking karate. Oh my goodness, he LOVES it! It is totally adorable watching him at practice. He is in the 6 and 7 year old class called the Tigers. As you can see from the pictures, he takes it VERY seriously.

Happy Birthday, Papaw!

My dad turned 64 the end of October. To celebrate, we all had a bonfire down at the farm in Greenback. As usual, things were full of excitement with all 6 grandkids in attendance. Especially when Nana provides S'mores AND birthday cake!!! (By the way, the current ages of the grandchildren are 6 yrs. , 5 yrs. , 4 yrs. , 3 yrs. , 2 yrs. , and 1 yr.)

Trunks and Treats

Each year our church, First Baptist Alcoa, hosts "Trunks and Treats" as an alternative to Trick or Treating. Our Sunday School class decorated our "trunk" using the theme of the movie Greece. We had fun performing the hand jive for a captive audience. Jackson and Mackenzie even got in on the act. They impressed us all with their hula hoop skills.

Pumpkin Carving

Jackson and Mackenzie enjoyed carving their pumpkins this year. Mackenzie still thought the insides were "icky" and didn't really want to put her hand inside for long. Jackson made a scary face and Mackenzie made a happy face.
