November flew by in our house. That Brant's aunt showed up on the first and his parents left on the 30th may have had a BIT to do with it. :) But we also hosted parties and Thanksgiving and had school and life and birthdays.... was a really busy, fun month.
Reading with Gappy on the back porch.
The week Gappy was here Brant worked the election, we hosted a huge missions dinner/game night for our church and did a joint birthday party for Elijah and Caleb....
We did the boys' party at a state park. The weather was perfect and no one fell in the river. :)
Then we went to a family music festival. The boys loved the rides. We loved seeing Jeremy Camp and David Crowder.
School projects... Elijah's volcano...
His shield and coat of arms... he and Brant worked for hours on it, researching all the symbols.
We came to watch his presentation...
Caleb had to dress up like a Pilgrim or an Indian and make up a little story about himself. He called himself "Creeping Snake."
I went to see my brother and sister perform in "Hamlet."
We took a quick trip to see my sister and her fam, my grandparents and some friends. The cousins in the tree house...
We hosted a BBQ for my dad's birthday. Was really fun and yum food.
Brant's parents came at the end of the month for two weeks and Caleb, my brown eyed boy, celebrated his 6th birthday.
We hosted Thanksgiving and my parents and the twins came too... really fun day which *might* have ended with a late night trip to Walmart so I could buy 50 pairs of little boy underwear at half price. :) And unfortunately, it was so crazy I didn't get a single picture (of Thanksgiving, not of the underwear buying!) :) I did really enjoy Black Friday shopping. Don't laugh... if you had to buy 3 years of little boy birthday and Christmas presents, you would go for the cheapest shopping day of the year too!
