November 2021

 

November 5 - I took Hallie and Molly to McDonald's in Idaho Falls, they loved the crowns. (I'm not sure why there were crowns, but they loved them!) Then, we went over to Randy and Julie's new home they were moving into. Molly and Hallie were thrilled to see a kitchen set come in from the trailer.

November 7 - We got to go watch Ryder's first basketball game.  It was pretty cute and pretty comical.  

November 7 - Hallie noticed Jared was eating some cheesecake, so she snuck inside his arm for a bite. When Jared's was gone, she came to me for a bite of mine.  She put my arm around her neck like her daddy's had been.  

November 13 - Ryder and Molly had their Primary Program practice.  Yuki sent me these cute pictures of them singing.  Then, we took the kids to see Clifford, the big red dog movie.  Everyone liked it. 

November 14 - After the Primary Program! We are so proud of these two.  They knew all the songs so well, and said their parts so well! It was a great program, we were way impressed. It was fun that Molly had two sets of grandparents there to support her.

November 20 - I guess I just had to keep up with Blake, after all, he had two surgeries this year.  I had a torn meniscus cleaned up.  The surgery went well.  We went through the car wash on the way home.

November 23 - Molly and Hallie came to visit.  They had fun with my little "peddler". It was fun to snuggle with my Hallie girl.

November 24 - Look at these adorable pictures of Hallie.  She's such a funny little character!

November 25 - Thanksgiving was really different this year.  Brian took Blake, Randy, Aubrey and Declan to Tucano's in Farmington.  He thought it was the best Thanksgiving ever.  

I didn't feel ready to ride in the car to go to Tucano's, so I joined my parents and my sister Lynne's family for Thanksgiving dinner.  They were lucky enough to use Matsuura's Clubhouse for the day.  

November 26 - Blake, Brian and Randy went rabbit hunting.  There weren't very many rabbits, but they had some fun shooting skeet.

November 27 - Nikelle had a new game, that Maden really liked, he even convinced Grandpa to play with him.  He was the winner most of the time!

November 28 - Impromptu get together at Jared and Nikelle's house.  There was tree decorating, game playing and crafting.  The kids loved it that we found the beads to make some ornaments. Clark thought he was really cool to get to play "Egyptian" with his dad.

November 30 - I decided I needed a little bit of Christmas in our townhouse. I found this cute little tree at a craft store and some little decorations from the dollar store and now we have a cute little tree.

And now a report on the progress, or lack of progress on the new house!

November 1 - We have glass in the front door!

November 4 - There are real poles holding up the patio.

November 8 - Taping and mudding the sheetrock seams has started!

November 10 - More mudding the tape, and doors are delivered.

November 12 - the mudding process takes a long time!

November 18 - Walls are textured! It's starting to feel like a real house!
