November




 I've had a hard time with this post, so things are pretty much in order, but not perfectly.  The first pictures are of our Thanksgiving trip to Yakima.  Then after that, are pictures from earlier in the month.
We had a good Thanksgiving trip. We left Tuesday afternoon and drove half way. They kids loved getting to stay in a hotel. We stayed until Sunday and drove all the way back that day. The roads were all clear, and the kids were great little travelers.

Caitlin had a good time seeing all the family. Here she is asleep with Grandma

 Chad and Amy's family were in Boise for Thanksgiving, but came back in time so that we got to spend Saturday with them. Here are three of the four girl cousins!
 All the cousins that were there.

 Caitlin loves to attack and blow on tummies. Logan, Jackson, and Jaden were getting a kick out of her.
  
Mackayla made this pillow all by herself for a Christmas gift for Grandma.

 Cannon, Jacob, and Jaden watching a movie with Grandma.
  
We were visiting Grandma Davenport in the Nursing Home, and she gave Caitlin her first sucker.
  
Feeding the ducks at the cemetery.
 

We were able to see Mitchell's headstone. It looked beautiful.

Grandma got to come back to the house for our Thanksgiving dinner.

Mackayla was in charge of the apple pie. We made the crust look like a turkey.

Cousins! Bradley and Logan

Thanksgiving dinner. We had to do a little rearranging, but we all fit at one table!


Bradley and Jacob made some bean bags by themselves to give Grandpa for Christmas.
Cute Caitlin Again!
Coloring placemats on Thanksgiving Eve. 
Caitlin watching some football with Daddy on Thanksgiving Day.

This is what happens to me also when I watch football.
Trying out the new beverage fountain that Bradley gave me for my birthday.
The day we left on our Thanksgiving trip, the 1st graders put on a Thanksgiving program. Bradley, Jacob, Caitlin, and I were able to go see it.
Bradley took a picture of me and Caitlin.

Another cute picture of Caitlin sleeping with her Daddy one night.
We had a really good snowfall at the beginning on November. We all had a great time. I went out with the kids and built a snowman, and then started to help them build a fort. I got too tired before it was finished, so I had to go inside with Caitlin and then Jared came out and helped them finish it.


I turned 33! For my birthday we went out to Cafe Rio for dinner. Then we came home, the Nelsons joined us, and we had cake, ice cream, and presents.
