Cousin's day Colorado style-We went skeet shooting. Cole, Vaughn, Eric and Dylan have all done it on previous trip to Colorado with Uncle Scott. I had never been with on these other trips and they convinced me to try it. So now I can check "shoot a shotgun" off of my bucket list (even though it would never have been on mine)

Trading beans & growing crops. It's a card game called 'Bohnanza', but they like to play it cooperatively, instead of competitively. So, it's more like they're just playing 'Bean Farm'.

Today James and I woke up to a weird siren outside so we looked out the window and people we outside looking too. So I grabbed my robe and took James with me and saw Santa in a firetruck waving to all the kids. James ran up to him and shook his hand and then got candy canes they were handing out. Then later that day we saw Santa at the mall and took pictures this Santa took time to talk to the kids while we were picking out the pictures.

I worked overnight at Carson's for the black Friday sale, so I was wiped out tired all day today - didn't do much of anything & couldn't sleep. I had to go out to pick up our copy of the Willy Wonka DVD tonight, so I decided we'd walk, to get us all some fresh air & exercise. It was such a nice night for walking!

Thanksgiving with Grandpa! James loved watching the food bake in the oven and he loved how it smelled. My favorite was the brown sugar sweet potatoes they were sooo good. Emily also loved playing with Grandpa, she just kept piling up toys on him and usually Daddy never lets her do that so she was happy Grandpa didn't mind.

Annie had so much fun playing with Madi & Natalia today. She wants me to invite them down for a sleepover sometime, but I told her that it would probably have to wait until January, after everyone's done working their seasonal jobs.

Delivering the spelling bee participation packets to all of the students who signed up, at all of the different district schools. So far, 70 students are registered to participate, but there are still two schools that I haven't collected registrations from, yet. And, of course, I'm sure there will be latecomers, too.
