random pics from November

November sped by!  It feels like it was just Halloween and now it is Thanksgiving in two days and Christmas soon after.  Before the holidays hit and life gets pretty busy, I thought I would post some pictures form the last couple of weeks:

Hanging out outside on the warmer fall days:
My little shopping buddy:
First date night (sans Callie) in a LONG time!
 Our little leaf rakers stomping on the leaves in the trash:
 Nate's been helping Callie learn to sit up.  She can only last about 30 or 45 seconds before toppling over but I'm sure it won't be too long until she can balance longer. I love watching her concentrate on sitting up...but she really needs to stop growing up!
 I got to help with Aiden's kindergarten feast.  It was so fun to see all the cute kids dressed up like pilgrims and indians! His teacher, Mrs. Crockett, is awesome and she did such a great job with the feast.
I love getting to volunteer in A's class often cause then I get to spy on him a little with his little friends :)
This month our FHE lessons have focused around gratitude and why we celebrate Thanksgiving.  The boys' favorite lesson was writing gratitude lists on some paper leaves and sticking them on the kitchen cupboards so we could remember the many things we have to be grateful for all month long. I love seeing their sweet little lists!
As I wrote my list that night, I felt so overwhelmed with the many blessings in my life!  My biggest blessings are definitely Nate and my three kids.  I love them all so much and I am so excited to spend lots of time with them this holiday weekend!
