Decorating for Christmas

This was Eve’s first year to paint an ornament. She liked it.

Decorating. Nate is my expert vase filler and Ellie enjoyed reminiscing about all the ornaments. The kids did a great job fluffing the tree and decorating it.

Random November Happenings

We like to go to Firehouse Subs and this particular day Ellie wanted to take pictures. She took many pictures however not many of them are clear or flattering. Here are two that are fun.

Eve is being a big girl. She was wearing her underwear and trekked out to the back patio with a book to enjoy the outside.

We set up the fire pit and the kids really enjoyed sitting by it. We even made s’mores.
