I am officially sick of posting pictures of our year -- I have procrastinated this post for quite some time, but now it's a matter of finishing what I started -- I can't do a year in pictures and leave out the last two months. And there certainly were some fun memories to remember.
November
Carter turned 10. We had a sleepover party planned complete with all the right snacks...CocaCola in little bottles, the barrel of cheese balls, Big Texas Cinamon rolls for breakfast, but then Cal and the girls got the stomach flu. Carter was quite dissappointed we had to put the sleepover on hold, but we improvised and went to Pizza Ranch and County Fair instead. The boys redeemed all their game tickets for these groovy glasses. I bagged up the snacks and told the boys we were giving them a sleepover in a bag. I brought a can opener and they drank their cokes in the car toasting "Carter and the boys". It turned out O.K.
On to Thanksgiving:
After last Thanksgivings fiasco which you can read about here, I must say I appreciated the big table and letg room at the Fruited Plain Cafe!
Not the best picture of mom, but I had to include a picture of the men at work in their aprons.
Taryn shared parts of her 1st grade Thanksgiving book with us.
Not to be upstaged, Laremy shared a reading as well.
There's something I don't see everyday -- Carter doing dishes -- maybe I need an industrial sized dishwasher.
And to throw in one more sports photo...November also included school basketball for Paige.
December
December began with the annual Christmas Tree Hunt.
We always go to the same tree farm and every year I take pictures of the kids in the same three snowmen. This year, I guess Paige was too old...I'm down to 2 snowmen.
Christmas Day provided sun and a fresh layer of snow.
Grandma and the Grandkids and 1 Great-grandchild.
The whole gang!
Mom and kids
And just a couple of photos from the Schelhaas Family Christmas...
I'm not even going to try to explain...
