Thanksgiving Time

I was able to help out with both Jayden and Skyler’s class “Feasts”. Aysia thoroughly enjoyed herself with third helpings from each class. Thanksgiving Day was a little chaotic for me since I was on-call for the hospital. We had an early Dinner with Taylor’s Mom which I completely missed then a later dinner with the Yates’. Luckily I was able to stay around and enjoy the second meal. It was so good to see so many family members we rarely see anymore. Thank you everyone for letting us share a memorable holiday with you!

Thanksgiving Crafts

The kids love creating and making holiday crafts. This year we made little Turkey terracotta centerpieces that the kids were able to put some goodies in. They also made some Turkey lanterns that we lit and placed on the porch for thanksgiving night.

Family Nights

We love hanging out as a family, but unfortunately with our schedules it doesn’t happen as often as we like. We try to make at least one night a week where we can enjoy being with just us. We took the kids to Boondock’s where they road go-carts and played lazer-tag.

HALLOWEEEEEEEEEN!!!

We love Halloween! We can be like kids again and dress up and be what ever we want. The boys initially wanted to be super heroes; however, once Aysia put on her pirate costume for the first time, they both decided they wanted to follow in their little sisters footsteps. So we decided to be a family of pirates. Taylor had a great limp to go along with his costume due to his recovering knee. Mom, Dad and Judi came to celebrate the evening with soup in a pumpkin and lots of ghoulish goodies!
