Aud picks out her first Christmas Tree


Today, Audrey went to the Christmas Tree farm to look for a Christmas Tree. This will be her mommy and daddy's fifth tree in Ada, which shocks them immensely.

Anyhow, after a morning drive to Rockford on winding, snow-covered road - we found the tree farm. The Thurston's were underwhelmed at the selection of concolor fir trees. So, Team Thurston drove back to the Cascade area and got the gigantic tree that we get each year - from the little lot behind the liquor store.

Just a beautiful tree that had to be squeezed through the door. The great thing about concolor fir trees are that they smell like oranges. In fact, our entire house now smells of oranges. No lights or ornaments on the tree yet, but that will occur after the Lions game tomorrow.

Aud & Tom sitting in the tree...


The Patriots and Colts game today is being referred to as "Super Bowl XLI Part Deux." Mommy and Daddy will rooting for the Colts to win, however, Audrey will be cheering for Tom Brady. Not the Patriots, just Tom. We discovered early on that little Aud has a crush on Mr. Brady. She could be in the middle of a crying fit and if Tom comes on, she stops and starts cooing at the TV.

Audrey's First Halloween


Tonight, Audrey celebrated her first Halloween. She was dressed as a chicken, and visited houses up and down the street. Despite the rain, kids keep flocking to the Thurston House for Mars and Zagnut bars, pennies and pencils.

Who is the cutest baby in Ada?

Well, Audrey is modest - so she will say it's one of the kids on the street behind her house. Daddy thinks it's little Audrey. Since he is always right, we'll stick with that.

Here are a few photos to prove his point:
