November: In Review

November flew by in the blink of an eye.

Clyde began his firefighter class and is now officially part of the Asbury Community Fire Department.  We're very proud of him and he seems to really be enjoying it.

Riley had a basketball tournament in Bellevue.  Digs went along with me.

In between games, they had some old fashioned fun on a vintage merry-go-round.

We had some pretty awesome seats.

Cooper's school celebrated Veteran's Day and he invited his Papa as his guest.

We went to Chicago for my sister Caitlin's Engagement Party.  We had Thai food at my sister Kathleen's before heading over to the party.

I also got to visit Maddux...my sister Caitlin's sometimes-naughty Basenji.

My beautiful sister and sister-in-law at the party.

My niece, Isabel, was allowed to make a brief appearance...she was pretty happy about it!

I can't believe I didn't get any pictures of the couple, after all, it was THEIR engagement party.
*sigh*  

I voted.  

Tashi realized Booth was the warmest spot in the house.

Rowyn found treadmilling in princess gear and heels wasn't impossible.  When there's a will, there's a way.

Rowyn's class made these cute candy turkey's.

Thanks to my sister, Caitlin, I'm hooked on Trader Joe's for protein shakes.

Digs was less-than-impressed when her Grammy made her a JibJab video...Gangnam Style.

We started watching Revolution.  Hooked.

I took family pictures.  Only once did I have to deal with one little drama queen storming off in a huff.

Petey-Woody-Charlie is back from the North Pole.

We celebrated Camdyn's 7th Birthday in everything rainbow.  She loved it!

 My mom prepared the perfect Thanksgiving meal.  I love being with family...wishing everyone could have been there, but we'll see them at Christmas.

 Rowyn found a vintage ball gown in my parent's basement.  Presh. ;)

And, last but not least, Lumpy went cannibal on the turkey leg.  Good God. 


There.  I updated.  A whole month.
No more nasty grams on my Facebook page.
Ha!
