Trouble Sleeping

Bandit doesn't mind when Aiden gets in trouble at bed time and has to

sleep in our closet....

Oreos

 

These boys had a great night decorating chocolate dipped oreos.

Don't they look tasty!

Tired Boy

Emery refused to take a nap, until I told him that he could sleep in my bed.

Game Tree

Aiden decided to use game pieces from Pandemic Legacy to decorate his tree for school.  It might be a bio hazard, but I think it turned out great!

Oh, Christmas Tree!

 

We got the tree up and the lights on, the boys did all of the decorating this year.  It was so much fun to watch them pick the ornaments and ask where they were from.

Pie for Breakfast?

Must be the day after Thanksgiving.  I asked Mom for pie for breakfast, and she said, "Sure!"

Happy Thanksgiving!

Helping Grandma Jo cook.

Mama got some baby Cade time.

 

We got lots of time with Holden and Leah.

 

These boys had to have baby Cade time as well!

Leah is such a good big sister.

Thanksgiving Feast

 

Daddy and Mommy joined me at school today for a special Thanksgiving feast.  We had a great time!

The Snozzle

Aiden says that this will be the hot Christmas gift of the year, he's calling it "the snozzle"

Snowman

 

The boys used the first measurable snowfall to make this snowman.  I asked Aiden to take a photo of him for me, and he came back with a good 20 photos of him and Parker with the snowman.  Here are two good ones.

Tired

I needed to make a phone call and Emery was making all sorts of noises.  I shut the office door and told him he had to stay out of the office.  Obviously, he was very tired as he went and got a blanket and curled up, right outside the office door where he could watch me. He promptly fell asleep!

Turkey Legs

 

Brandon cooked us up a turkey today and the boys really liked the drumsticks,

Pirate Ninja Parker

Sun Glasses

Tree Planting

  

Look at these hard workers helping me plant some fruit trees in our yard.

Electric Piano

Some of the benefits of an electric piano and piano lessons......

Baked Pumpkin Donuts

While Dad is away, Mom thought she'd spoil us with baking pumpkin donuts.

PTO Movie Night

 

PTO movie night in the North Ridge Gym.  Tonight we watch Inside Out!

We even won the grand prize movie night bucket, including the movie!

Ninja Parker

Parker found some scraps of fabric that he could put to good use.

Flushing Hydrants

On the way home from school today, we saw the city flushing the hydrants.  This was a lot of fun to watch, especially the school buses that drove through it.  We also had a lot of questions for the worker.  He was very kind to answer all of them!
