Beginning to look a lot like Christmas

Thanksgiving

We hosted Thanksgiving for my mom's family at our house this week. Here's Paul carving the turkey. And, all the Andrews that were in attendance after Pam, Dick, Smokey and Katie came over for dessert. We're getting to be a big group.

And, the day after Thanksgiving always brings shopping at the MOA with my mom, sister, aunts and cousins. Such a fun tradition it's shaped up to be. Thanks to grandma & grandpa for following through on their tradition of watching the kids over night on Thanksgiving!!

Here's the whole lunch crew at TC Grill, a tradition!
And, 5 desserts for 11 people. Here's to Jodi--we miss you!

Another Vikings Game

Don't want to say too much about this one. It was a sad sad game. But, it was Chilly's last game.

SNOW!

What a difference a few days makes. And, so it begins. We were dumped with our first snowstorm this weekend. Anna and I braved the roads in the morning, but found it too dangerous to do much more most of that day. It took me over 30 minutes to get my car from the end of my street into my garage--stuck a lot of times. Time for new tires :)

Here are Anna and I making snow angels the first day it snowed. It was wet and heavy and our snow blower was not working. A long day for everyone, except Alex who refused to go outside.

A few days later, it was time for the first sledding of the year. Alex was not interested. He just wanted to make a snowman. I obviously need more help in that department.

And, little miss snow princess-she LOVES the snow!!

Last Day at the Park

It's beautiful out and still November out! But, alas we know it will not last. So, quick let's walk to the park and get in some more play time :)
