Thankful!

 

44.  That was our final count for Thanksgiving at our house!  It. was. awesome!!!  Thank goodness for a finished basement and a nice day. People were able to eat on the patio and we had tables set up in the basement.  We had more than enough food and it was all so great!!   The two big questions I get are "Did you cook for all those people?" and "How many turkeys?"  No, I do not cook all the food!  Everyone brings a ton.  I am in charge of the turkey and deviled eggs.  I made a 23 lb bird, Char made a 13 lb bird, Joyce brought two turkey breasts and Lori brought ham.  So many sides (including a Mac and Cheese completion!) were brought! 

 Bring on Christmas!! 

November!

 

We started November off by ending another great season of soccer!  Lots of parties! 

Nora's team party!

Clara's party and medal!

Lila finally has her first trophy!! 

Brian turned 38!  We celebrated at Old C's!  

 

We went to a fun party at Lollipop Park....

We had lots of fun at the book fair!! 

Played in the snow!  

Clara started Basketball!!  Go Clara!!  

 

 

The girls had a sleepover at The P's.  Brian and I were downtown when we got the call that Lila fell and needed to go the ER.  She hit the bridge of her nose on a chair.  Luckily, no concussion and no breaks, just some really bad black eyes over the next couple of weeks!  This is the picture after we took her back to Pop and Grams after the ER.  She insisted on staying with her sisters and cousins!

 

My fun birthday dinner the night before my birthday since this year, I turned 38 on Thanksgiving!
