Last Half of November

Happy Thanksgiving late! I am home with a sick kiddo today so I decided to get caught up with my posts and tell you what we have done the last half of November.

Last Friday went to Utah for an archery hunt. Since he was driving, I made a baby cake for someone Henry works with and sent it with him. Pictures are on my cake blog.

Wednesday we had visitor in our backyard. A fox decided to layout and get some sun. He laid out there for over an hour and Kyle just wanted to watch him the whole time. We are worried becasue he lives under our deck and shows no fear of people.

We had Thanksgiving at Dad's and Mom's house. Michael and Mary and the girls, Briand and Kim, and Mary's sister Baecky were all there. It was a full house but we had fun. We smoked two turkeys again this year. SO GOOD!

Friday we put away the Thanksgiving decorations and pulled out the Christmas decorations. Kyle has been asking to get the tree out since Halloween so he was eager to help clean so we could get the tree up and decorated. Kyle even got to put up a little tree in his room that we decorated. He is so excited for Christmas and seeing Santa. We are going to a party thrown by Mom's and Dad's insurance agent next week and Santa will be there. All kyle can talk about is how he will see Santa and ask him for an ambulance.

Snow Day!

We got an email last night at 11:35pm, church has been cancelled due to the snow. Yeah! I thought I would take a minute and update our blog. It has been a few weeks. Nothing has been going on though. We are getting ready for the holidays. I have all my Thanksgiving shopping done, all I need is turkey or two. I am waiting for a good sale for those. I am almost done with the Christmas shopping too. Just have a few odds and ends to get. I have my piano recital in a few weeks, for I am trying to get everything ready for that. Henry is leaving for Utah later this week for a hunt. He will get back the Wednesday before Thanksgiving. Kyle is out of pre-school until January. His teacher had a baby late October so she is on maternity leave right now. He still has play group on Wednesdays though. So I get a few hours a week to get stuff done :) That is pretty much our lives right now.

New Blog Look

I know it's early for Christmas, but I wanted to get first dibs on the background :) And there is no good Thanksgiving music through playlist.com. So, this should help get you into the Christmas spirit early!
