November - Rewind

The warm month of November, we spent as much time as possible outside riding bikes, scooters, and playing at parks.  Not too much happened this month until around Thanksgiving.  Olivia's preschool had a feast for the parents to come and have a Thanksgiving lunch with the kids.  I didn't realize there was a little program before hand and I barely made it.  Olivia is in the second row, far left looking sad because she can't see me.  Once she did, she cheered right up.

Laurie and the gang came up for Thanksgiving so we planned fun activities every day for the cousins.  We spent one day at the lake just letting the kids explore, find dead fish, and throw rocks to their hearts content.

Olivia dresses herself and she's really big on mismatching socks.  This was the days get-up.

Love this picture of Alec and Todd walking together

Another day we spent at the science museum and let the kids try out the forces of wind in the hurricane wind tunnel.

Abby and Benson spent many hours doing "research".  They looked up all sorts of facts about different animals and made a book full of their drawings and information that they found.

They didn't want anyone bothering them so they covered the windows and wrote many messages including: "Don't bother us! spechly uncle todd."

 Kaitlyn loved playing Apples to Apples - shaking her fist at us

The rest of the month flew on by with really nice weather and we had so many butterflies in the front that the girls would catch them day after day.  This picture was taken Nov. 26.  Got to love Texas weather!
