We had a wonderful Thanksgiving filled with family and oodles of food!
We were also very thankful for the beautiful weather so that many could enjoy their meal outside.
After a wonderful meal for lunch at Momma & Daddy's we went to PowPow & PopPops for a wonderful supper.
Lyndon finished his last soccer game a few weeks ago. The kids all did a great job.
I typically might not be so happy to see writing on my window....but......how could you complain to this? Lyndon wrote this note sometime when he was in the bathroom. I didn't see it until I took a shower and the window became foggy again...made my day for sure!
Lyndon had his 2nd 6wks Academic Pep Rally on Tuesday. Lyndon received the math department award, perfect attendance recognition, & the A Honor Roll recognition. Great job Lyndon!
Unsure why my pictures turned out SO blurry!
Lyndon & I had fun decorating for Halloween this year. Of course we put things in different places each year which makes it fun!
This year we didn't buy any new decorations, but still had a lot of fun using what we had.
Lyndon is taking art classes after school one day a week and LOVES them!!!! He made this spooky skull &
this adorable scarecrow.
Momma and I brought home some of my late grandfather's milk crates this summer and we have had a lot of fun using them to decorate. My grandfather worked at several dairies during his lifetime and these crates are made only from metal and have the name of the dairy imprinted in them. I LOVE them!
The two wreaths on the backdoor were fun to put out....I bought them off of the clearance shelf last year after Halloween-it was fun to find them this year as we unpacked.
We began our Trick-or-Treating adventure at the Ranch.
We then hit the babysitter's and a few other homes before the grandparents'.
Momma greeted her Trick-or-Treaters in hippy atitre.
Lyndon wore his skeleton pjs under his fly suit since he had already taken his bath-they also glow in the dark which looks spooky when I check on him at night and he's glowing.
It was damp and freezing at Lyndon's soccer game this morning!
You could see the water fly off of the ball as it was kicked.
The kids did a great job and tied the game at the very end.
Wednesday night my CCD students at church munched on candy that I brought while we learned about Halloween's religious beginnings. As Lyndon was eating Milk Duds for the 1st time ever they pulled out his first molar! The tooth must have been slightly loose, but probably wasn't ready to actually come out. I knew it must have really hurt because Lyndon was very quiet for the rest of our class. The tooth fairy was extra generous & must have really wanted Lyndon's molar because he made $10. I can't imagine she wanted it that bad.....maybe she was running low on small bills? ...Who knows?.... 
On Friday the kids wore their Halloween costumes to school for the annual Halloween Parade & for their Halloween Treat. Lyndon brought each of his teachers a Halloween goodie bucket which he picked out himself.
