November

 November was a good month.  Here are some of our highlights.

My youngest wearing her brothers costume.   The only reason she got away with it was that her brother fell asleep and was taking a nap at this point.  As soon as he woke up he promptly yet gently took it off of her.  And reminded her that it was his fireman costume.

 

She loves the rocking chair in her room and will grab books and look at them while sitting in it.

 She loves to play on slides.

 We went to see Santa come to town and watch the fountain.

 Love this picture.  She looks so sweet here.

 Also this month we went to a Family Reunion.  The kids had fun swinging at the pinata.

  Her face after she decapitated the pinata. Guess they will make sure she wears a blindfold from now on.

 But to make sure more kids had a chance they reattached the head and her cousin got a chance.

 We also enjoyed Thanksgiving with both families this year.  It was nice to spend time with both.  I don't know if we will do both in a day again it is a lot of driving but every once in a while is good.  I don't have pictures though.

November 2011

So here is November in a nutshell. I am not as good at taken picture lately. Although when I have catch up to do that is nice for me. Hope you enjoy these pictures and videos.

Before Thanksgiving the dance studio had their first ever Christmas boutique. Where the kids got to see Santa and Mrs Claus.

Here she is with her best friend as well. They aren't in the same class but they have enjoyed seeing each other at the performances.

Also all the combination classes performed a dance once an hour. She split the classes among the different times so luckily we didn't have to be their the whole time. You may recognize the song in the video as she did this song last year with candy canes instead of stockings.

Here she is at her preschool Thanksgiving feast.

My husband spent a whole day raking the leaves before winter came. Here are the kids having fun in the leaves.

Video of kids playing in the leaves.

After Thanksgiving we got the Christmas boxes out and this is my son having fun with our old stockings and a Santa hat.

October activities 2011

So I figure I will lump October together minus Halloween.

My husbands brother's wife had a baby shower and while the women folk were having fun celebrating a sweet baby girl to come the men folk took the kids to a local farm and let the kids pet animals and feed ducks. From what I could tell they had a lot of fun.

Boxes! What more could a kids ask for?

Playing in the maze on a field trip to the local pumpkin patch.

My daughters class plus a few siblings.

Below is a different trip to the same pumpkin patch just us as a family. Here the kids are helping daddy pick some pumpkins.

Heading to the car with our pumpkins.

Then we went to the local pond and fed the ducks. We started on the side of the pond but the ducks were a little aggressive so we moved to the fishing pier to finish feeding the and keep kids safe.
