November fun and Thanksgiving





























































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































November was a really busy month for our family!! We enjoyed seeing lots of family over the holiday and the week off of school. Holden had a big month, he lost his first top tooth, (sooo cute), performed a drum solo at our church, was star of the week in his class and brought Dixie for show and tell! Jaelyn performed in her cute ballet recital, and Griffin completed his private trumpet lessons. He also got taken out to lunch at McDonald's by his teacher this week for going "off the board" with his reading AR points. He is leading all 5th grade by over 100 points! Baby Cooper is just getting funner and funner. I love this age, minus the strong willed tantrums of course. He is singing, pretending, talking so much, all the fun stuff! Kristy and I got to steal a few fun outings out together with friends, rekindling our youth, ha ha! Jeff got to go on a guys weekend , "Skills", with his best buddies and had a great time.Besides some nasty colds we've been fighting we are doing well, hope you are to!
