So two months have passed since the last posting...

And in these two months, Pacey dressed up as a butterfly for Halloween, we stopped drinking from bottles before age 1 mind you, Jeremy FINALLY got to use his birthday gift, we celebrated Pacey's 1st year, we gave thanks for all the blessings in our life (we had Thanksgiving at grandma's and grandpa's), Pacey learned to stand up on her own, she has taken a step on her own, and we celebrated Pacey's 1st year AGAIN. In that order. I should really do a better job of keeping up with the blog. Here are some pictures from these events:
We met at Marisa and Gary's house before going to the Halloween Festival at Prestonwood. Caleb, Marisa and Gary's little boy, dressed up as a pumpkin and Pacey went as a butterfly.

AAAWWW! How cute is that?!?!

And here we are at Redneck Arena...oh, I'm sorry, Texas Motor Speedway. Pacey and I got Jeremy tickets to the Nascar Race for his 32nd birthday. Of course, his birthday was back in July but the race wasn't until November so I (Rachel) had 4 months of anxiety built up while Jeremy had 4 months of anticipation built up. Once we got there, of course, I went straight to the Dippin Dots stand. I had to find something to keep me occupied. No seriously, it wasn't that bad. I actually enjoyed it. It's a lot different in person than watching it on TV. And I was really expecting to see Rednecks everywhere (which there were plenty of them, don't get me wrong) but there were people that you would see at Northpark Mall also. So what I learned about Nascar that Sunday afternoon is that it is the only sport I know that has a very diverse group of spectators. There was actually a group of teenage girls (probably from Frisco with their Gucci bags) sitting 3 rows in front of us.

Go Jr! We were cheering for Dale Earnheirdt Jr.
We went to Mylie's 1st Birthday party at Chuck E Cheese. This is Pacey's friend from her old school. They are only 14 days apart. Mylie is really enjoying her pizza.
Whereas, Pacey takes eating her Pizza very seriously.
The next day was Pacey's second 1st Birthday party. We had one in Lubbock for her with my parents and grandparents but our batteries went dead in our camera so we didn't get any pictures of that one. I'm totally bummed about it.
So this is her 2nd party that was here at the house. We had Jeremy's family and our friends over for pizza & cake. Pacey just liked the icing...she could have cared less about the cake. Here are some other pictures from this party:
This is Pacey and her friend Mylie.
Mylie and Eric, who is one of my friend's son.
Pacey got this chair from grandma for her birthday. She absolutely LOVES it. She really thinks she is Queen of the house now b/c she has a chair just like daddy has his.
