November Activities

Most of our noteworthy activities happend at the end of the month right around Thanksgiving Day.


On Thanksgiving Day, early in the morning, the four of us participated, for the 2nd time, in the Turkey Stuffer 5k Run/Walk. Kim and Steve ran, I walked with Andrea who was expecting her baby at any moment. Steve's time was 37 minutes, Kim's time was 42 minutes and Andrea and I made it in 52 minutes! It was great - we didn't feel so guilty about eating a big dinner later in the day.
We decided to try to take a picture of the family while we were all together, except for Kevin who is on his mission. Andrea used her new camera, a gift from Chris for her birthday. She used the timer setting and it worked out pretty well. It is a challenge to get everyone to look straight ahead and smile at the right time though.
The four grandkids all ready for bed.
On the Saturday after Thanksgiving we went to a Christmas Tree farm to pick out our tree. Andrea wanted to be able to help before her baby was born. Cooper and Hannah had a great time running around together.

After looking at almost every tree available we finally found on that we all liked. Cooper helped his Papa and Daddy carry it back to the van.
