The month of November was a little slower for our family which was a welcome break between the business of October and December. Because of the rest time, there are limited pictures so this post should be much easier.
November started off with a 15 year anniversary dinner for
Potters House. It was such a fun night with two tables full of friends celebrating a place that was so important to me (Kayce) during college. After the dinner, we all went out. This was something that hasn't happened in years (that is what happens when you all grow up and many have kids).
November was full of playing in the leaves (the weather was really nice), hunting (no deer but the kids sure loved it), sickness and cuddles, and cooking/baking.
On Thanksgiving Day, we enjoyed the day at home just as a family of four. We watched the Lion's play and I cooked my first complete Thanksgiving Dinner. It turned out wonderful! We celebrated with the Dodson's/Hills on Saturday and the kids had a lot of fun playing with their cousins; especially their new baby cousin, Kenton.
As soon as all of the Thanksgiving celebrations were over, we were so excited to start decorating for Christmas. Decorating for any season/holiday is a big deal in this house. The kids get SOOO excited to just pull out the tubs. Unfortunately the day we went to pick out our tree was absolutely miserable but I still think we got a pretty good one.
The month ended filled with anticipation. It was time for us to begin our advent calendar and prepare for the celebration of Christ's birth.
