I missed that last weekend Kim got to celebrate her friend's 40th birthday with a Bunco party
A sunrise that was worth remembering
Kim and Lyza snuggled up watching something together
Kim made an apple pie for Thanksgiving
Nixon was so helpful with preparing food. He helped cut up the bread to make stuffing.
On Thanksgiving morning we all got out to run a 5k around our neighborhood
Lyza and the little boys ran just over a mile then the rest of us carried on to finish it all up
The local pie shop had a bunch of orders that were not picked up so they asked for volunteers to deliver pies to various places. We delivered 8 full size pies to a hospice center
Mason showing off the headband he made?
I took a large panoramic photo of a portion of our neighborhood and the river with the drone. I almost got our house in the picture but missed it by a few houses
We played some games together while the food cooked
Look at that beautiful bird!
We had a delicious dinner together
Mason was so happy to eat meat off the bone
Another headband? He loves to craft...
The next day was the day to set up the Christmas decorations, beginning with Christmas hats
The kids were really helpful setting up decorations this year
We took a break and I took the big kids (and Lyza's friend) to see the new Hunger Games movie (it was really good)
We read some Christmas books
Then we set up the tree
It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas in our house
These two have played many rounds of Monopoly Jr. the last couple of days
What a happy lunch
Yesterday we decorated the tree
These ornaments our friends made for us last year are the best!
When the tree was finished it was time for some dance lessons
Henry and I did some coloring together yesterday and it was so cute to see his tongue moving while he was concentrating
Nixon helped make pizza for dinner last night and it was very tasty
Have a great week!
