November Recap

November went by in a blur...here are a couple pics for you to enjoy!

Joel got invited to a skating party...and he had a TON of fun. It was his first time on skates and he did great!Love this picture...he still has killer eyes.
Carolyn came up to watch the kids while I was in boise. As always, they loved having her here and she loved doing it! Joel even got to stay home from school because there was a big wind storm and the schools lost power! Thank you Carolyn!!

The Sunday before Thanksgiving, it started SNOWING! The kids spent a couple of hours in the backyard exploring and playing...so fun!

Attempting to build a snowman...the snow was much too dry.

The view out our back windows.

All bundled up...

and ready to PLAY!

Greg got these great shots of the kids throwing snowballs.

And snow angels are a must!

The kids were able to build that snowman...with Greg's help!

By Monday we had quite a bit more snow....

(compare this snow angel with the one above!)

We even went sledding at the park by our house!

Christina came (from Germany) for an unexpected visit and got to stay with us for 6 days! She came to see our Grammie, and to spend time with the family as we all said goodbye. Even though it was a hard time for our family, it was such a joy to see my sister after a year and a half! We spent a lot of time at the Hospice House, but also did a bit of shopping and even did some scrapbooking! Christina, I am so glad you were able to come...I miss you!!
