Christmas Tree

Saturday afternoon we headed out to get our Christmas tree. We usually have great luck at Home Depot so we started there. We found one rather quickly and headed home. Wes and I had fun hanging the lights and ornaments on the tree! Maybe I'll try to take a night picture so the lights show! I let Wes have colored lights on the tree this year even though my preference is all white. He was so excited about that. I'm enjoying the colored lights just knowing Wes is loving having them.

Thanksgiving Weekend

We had a great Thanksgiving. We spent the entire day with the Tindel side, lots of fun and food! The rest of our time was spent putting up Christmas and just having fun as a family. One of Wes's favorite things to do this time of year is rake leaves and make a huge pile. The weather has been pretty warm around here so we don't have a ton of leaves that have fallen yet. Maybe in a few weeks we can make a huge pile.
What easy fun!
Where's Wes?

I love this guy!

Character Day and Young Authors

Friday was Character Day at school. All the kids came dressed up as their favorite character in one of their books. Wes has always loved his 20 or more Tonka books, so his costume was easy. The morning carpool to school with Coby and Micah!

There was an optional project of writing a book. Wes wrote a book about T-rexes!
Mrs. Weed (Mary Poppins) was passing out the awards for the books.

Outstanding Educational Writing

Wes with Noble and Clay!

Circus

Sunday afternoon we headed to the circus. We meet up with Papa, Nana, Kelli, and Brandon! Wes absolutely loved it! When we ask him what his favorite part was he listed everything!
Nana with the grandkids!Wes and Kelli
They had a ton of tigers in the cage and one huge lion!

I didn't enjoy this part of the show at all! It was very stressful to me. No nets or foam at all under these guys! Thankfully the only time one of them lost his balance he was the only one up there and he caught the rope! Yikes!

Lots of good elephant tricks
It was a good time for all! Glad we went!
