Some things that happened in November:

-Went in to be a parent helper in Kimbri's class.

-Rick went to Idaho for 2 weeks for an audition rotation.

-Kimbri had "50's Day" at school so I made a poodle skirt for her to wear.

-Zanna's bridal shower.

-Wesley's Temple Endowment

-Levi & Zanna's wedding and luncheon, Rick got home that same day but barely missed the wedding. He was able to make it for a family picture outside the tempe though, and then we went to their wedding luncheon together while my mom watched the kids.

-Primary program and practice. I'm currently the primary pianist. 

-Sundee's birthday dinner and gift (More Than a Tatooed Mormon.

-Kimbri's Kindergarten Thanksgiving Feast: I signed up to take 2 doz rolls, 2 bags of turkey, carrots, and bottle of ranch

-Thanksgiving at Stone's and then we headed up to Midway, where Carla and Craig live for anothe Thanksgiving dinner with the Haycock side of the family.

-Went Christmas tree hunting. Found a good one! Then decorated together as a family :)

Rick was packing for his rotation in Idaho and
Brenna hopped on in!

Raking leaves... lots and lots of leaves!!

The kids had a blast playing in them.

Kimbri riding her scooter home from the bus stop.

We often stop to see the donkeys on our way
to and from the bus stop. Their names are
Pancho, Pedro and Lucky.

I'm taking in all the snuggles I can get because
she is getting to that age where she doesn't let me
hold and snuggle her as often.

Visiting Great Grandpa Haycock in the nursing
home when he had to have an extended stay
for some medical problems he was experiencing,
particularly with his arm. Great Grandma decided
it would be fun for the kids to take a ride in his
wheelchair, and they of course liked that :)

Garrett wanted me to look through a hole in
the deck to see him down below.

50's day at school for Kimbri.

After taking Kimbri to the bus stop, we went on a little job
down the path behind the house.

She loves eating blueberries!

My mom gave the kids this little
Christmas tree to have for their room.

Brenna is at that age now where she isn't quite
old enough for nursery but doesn't like to sit still.
So we spent some time in the hallways at church.

Homemade playdoh.

This is her go-to spot in the kitchen. Always.
She plays in this drawer, eats snacks in there,
and brings books there to sit and look at. Haha!

Great-Grandpa & Brenna

Brenna kept wandering over there by him
and he just kept smiling at her. I'm glad my
cousins snapped some pictures of them for me!
