So far in December....

Ben performed in a holiday program at school, we ate ice cream afterwards, we went out for donuts on Sunday morning, and then went to a movie on Sunday afternoon.  Nothing too exciting....yet!  Can't wait for Christmas!

Random pics from November

Besides Thanksgiving in November, we went to the park a few times, Dan and Ben went to a pottery painting birthday party, school held a Fall Festival, we went to the library a bunch, and Hannah looked cute always.

Thanksgiving

We hosted Thanksgiving this year and it was awesome!  Zach's mom and brother, Tom, came from Buffalo.  Tom's girlfriend, Christy, came from Brooklyn.  And Zach's older brother, Lee, drove from Missouri with his wife, Cassandra, and their three kids, Corinne, Davis, and Miles.  The cousins had an absolute blast playing with each other.  The weather was beautiful so we were able to be outside a lot.  Everyone relaxed and played games and watched football and ATE.  Just how Thanksgiving should be!

Halloween

We had a great time at all of our Halloweens--at the Louisville Zoo, at school, around our neighborhood, and at trunk-or-treat in Glendale.  Dan and Ben were both ninjas and Hannah was the cutest pumpkin ever.

Pumpkin Patch

No autumn would be complete without a trip to the pumpkin patch!  We found a great one in Elizabethtown where everything was free except for the pumpkins and the corn maze.  A lot different than California where every activity cost extra money.  The kids had a really great time with all the fun things to do, especially digging in the corn sandbox.  My parents took them back the next weekend and did the corn maze.  I wasn't brave enough to go in there by myself with Dan and Ben and Hannah!  One (or more) of them might still be in there if I was the only one in charge....
