November 2020

Much of November was spent at home.  We decorated for Christmas early because it felt good to have a little holiday cheer. 

We got dressed up for our annual Santa pictures, 2020 style.  

These three had the cutest conversation with Santa! There was a big piece of plexiglass between them. Santa called them out for their behavior, even saying Addie "runs around like a wild animal." He really nailed that one. At the end of the conversation, Santa asked them what they wanted for Christmas. Ella asked for a mini trampoline, Cooper asked for a fast remote control car and Addie wanted a Critter castle. 

 

This coat was given to us by Ashley as it was hers when she was a little girl. Maryn wore it and then it was passed on to us. Ella loves it and we are sure Addie will too.

We had Thanksgiving at home with just the five of us.  It was sad not to share a meal with family but better safe than sorry. With Addie and Cooper now going to school full time, and Michelle's school closing before Thanksgiving Break because of too many cases, 

nobody (rightfully so) wanted to be near us. 

 

The kids asked for a silly picture.

We went skiing opening weekend when they were only allowing season pass holders on the lifts.  We had a great time getting out for some fresh air. Not very many people up there but we have not been back since.

 

Ella made a countdown to all the events to look forward to in December and January, we have a lot of birthdays!

At the beginning of November, we woke up to a little snow.  The kids did not waste the opportunity to get out and play.
