November Catch Up

My biggest (ok, maybe she's not the biggest). My oldest baby turned ten! I remember being very upset on my tenth birthday. I didn't want to be double digits. I wanted my childhood to last forever. Tay on the other hand is a pint-sized grown up. She thinks, dresses, and acts like an adult. I have to remind myself she's only ten. Ha ha, I can't believe she's already ten, yet at the same time, I can't believe she only ten. She received a kindle for her birthday. The children in her class made a going away book for her. Many of them made collages of her reading on her kindle. She LOVES it.
Also, Tay, Tigue, and I took a road trip to New Jersey for her first grade teacher's wedding. Ms. Sequeira asked her to be what every girl dreams of, the flower girl!

The best part of staying in a hotel............jumping on the beds!

On our way home from Jersey I saw an exit for Tigue Street. It was the middle of the night but I couldn't pass this up. It turns out there was no on ramp at this exit. I was forced to backtrack and got lost. Grrrrrrrrrrr. We finally made it home safely.

We had 19 people living under our roof for Thanksgiving. Grandma and Grandpa Reynolds, Cody and Jess, Uncle, Ryan, and the Ellsworth's crashed Fredonia. Ryan, pictured above with Tagg, surprised us from Turkey!

A tornado went through Fredonia hitting our garage. Thank goodness it missed the house.
Another episode of Tigue Greed anyone?
Rook pulled a burnt grilled cheese sandwich out of the garbage. Yum!

Grandma and Grandpa Miller had us over for a memorable Family Home Evening. We "let our light shine" by making candles. Thanks for a great time Mom and Dad!
