November

November came and went way too quickly.  Here's some of what we captured:

Fall soccer ended, and Andrew scored his first hat trick (3 goals).

We finished the fort!  And the boys were happily occupied while mom dug dahlias.

Caden finished a little Brit Am soccer class.

We built our first fires.

And took Christmas card pictures.

Will, just a week or so shy of 4.

Caden, age 6.

Andrew, age 8.

The official card photos (I think).

And this one.  

Just the two of us.

I got to accompany Andrew's class on a field trip to Fort McHenry - it was amazing.  The kids got to help them catch and fold the flag (too windy for the larger flag).

Kind of neat to help fold the flag which stands at the exact location that inspired our national anthem.

Breaking out of jail.

Playing on canons.

Best field trip ever, according to Andrew.  Love his sweet class.  And it was a gorgeous day.

Tacky Day at school.

Caden took this.

We are loomin it up.

Thanksgiving fun in Caden's class.

Mrs. Smith made this fabulous turkey!

Thanksgiving started with the a very COLD Turkey trot.  Tia and I were hard core.

After a 10 am service at church, and sweet relaxing afternoon watching the parade, we headed to the Wintrols for dinner!

Hunter and Caden.

Zombies, I think?

Mary, Monie, Aunt Nancy (from Mexico!) Dee Dee, and Tia.

Laura, Aunt Gin.

Silly Will and Emmy.

We are thankful for Beer, Boat Rides, and Books.

And Jesus, coffee, family, friends, 4th Church, 4th School, art, Addy, sports, and so much more.
