A few things from the past few months (since I am really behind!)...
Since we had such bad experiences at Huber's the past two years, we decided to just get together with the Dursts at our house this year. The Huber's tradition lasted nine years...but just hanging around our house for the evening was much more relaxing and hopefully a fall tradition that will continue!
Caleb and Madalyn are two peas in a pod when it comes to putting on productions. They plan out these "shows," which include lots of singing and dancing. Caleb is always the DJ behind the scenes. ;)
Caleb pranked Luke and covered him with stuffed animals one night. So, when Caleb slept with Luke the next night, Creed and I got him back. Can you spot Caleb?
This boy loves his Beanie Boos!
The tree and train went up the Sunday before Thanksgiving!
This boy also loves his Legos!
Our friends Jon and Lucy, and their sweet girls Mary and Margaret, we in town for Thanksgiving so we got together one evening with them and the Dursts.
And, the kids planned another show!
Our elf Betty showed up on December 1st and brought Lego advent calendars and donuts for breakfast! Each morning since, Luke has been an especially early riser to find where Betty is perched.
Last Saturday Caleb and I spent ALL DAY in a gymnasium for his robotics competition. WA had 2 fourth grade teams this year.
Team HydroPilots
They had four, two minute rounds...
and spent the rest of the day huddled under the table playing games. We were there from 8:30am until 5:20pm...It was a looonnng day.
The first Sunday of December we got together with the Dursts and Whitworths for our 10th annual Christmas with friends!
