November iPhone dump

Another month has passed and I'm falling more and more behind on this blog, but determined to catch up one day. School has been crazy for me, I still love it, but it certainly keeps me very busy.

This was our November!
Finn loves to do all sorts of arts and crafts, and made us approximately 735 Christmas ornaments this year.

In this house, we celebrate half birthdays!

Friendsgiving: Lots of love, lots of good food, lots of laughs, and a whole lot to be thankful for!


Illumination…I admit, I watched their faces more than I watched the actual light show!

Never too early to start on Easter decorations, right?

A lot of my kid free nights were spent like this...cozy in bed, doing school work, and watching some kind of trashy reality show. 

I remember the days watching Fox’s preschool class doing sing-along performances and smiling ear to ear because it made me so happy. Those days are long gone, but how lucky am I that I get to do it all over again with Finn now?

He was very serious during the entire performance, and didn't sing along with his classmates.


Playdate with his buddy at our house.

Dinner and drinks with a new friend.

Thanksgiving at Ashlie's house with the entire Jones family. Finn was really into basting the turkey, and worked on it for 15 minutes straight.








He asked me to take his picture, how can I say no to this face?


Decorating our annual gingerbread house!









Every once in a while they will play nicely together.


The kids went ornament shopping with Katie, and brought this one back for me, claiming it looked like an artichoke which is my school mascot. I thought it was so funny, but thoughtful. Also, who came up with having an artichoke for a mascot?!?

Naps don't happen very often anymore, but when they do, it's always in the car.

We rode scooters (and the crazy cart for Fox) at a nearby golf course.

After 8.5 years, Fox was finally willing to learn to ride a bike. He got the hang of it pretty quickly and I loved seeing his confidence, and how proud he was of himself.
Until next month!
