The Months Summed Up: November, Thanksgiving in Washington

Dylan and I went to Enumclaw this year for Thanksgiving! It took us a LONG time to get there! The drive is normally 5.5 hours but we were stuck in Snoqualmie for avalanche control for 3 hours! It made for a long day but it was worth it. We really enjoyed the time with my family.


Natalie was house sitting and they had a viz named Zolie! He was
such a great dog! I wanted to keep him. He loved to lay in front of the fire

Asher and Brayden playing with the animals and army men

Look at Everett's face!

Our "grateful" tree









Adding more leaves

Paul's very classy hat



"Fire! Fire!"



"Helping" Lisa make pies


Grandpa with an armful of grandkids!

Watching the Polar Express from inside the fire engine



The tree just keeps growing!


Everyone helping deboning the smoked turkey (the 3rd smoked
turkey of 4. Plus 1 regular baked turkey. It was a small Thanksgiving this year)

Okay, maybe more eating then actually saving the meat for Thanksgiving
dinner tomorrow. Apparently this is the only way we know how to "help" with the food.
This is why we need so many turkeys!


Asher reading to Grandpa. Grandpa is very attentive as you can see ;)

Dylan trying to find a quiet place to take a nap

Uncles Will and Dyl sword fighting with Paul

Guess who is winning!


Thanksgiving Dinner

So much yummy food!

Pies!

Lots and Lots of pies!



Lance the tree frog

Everett and Aunt Heather being a caterpillar 


Can't believe this boy is crawling already!




Target shooting the next morning




Dylan brought his Dad's clay pigeon shooter

"Pull!"


"Can you handle this?"












The girls all went to 5th Avenue is Seattle that night to see
Roger's and Hammerstein's Cinderella!


Love this theater

We were only 14 rows from the stage! There isn't a bad seat
in the house.....but ours was excellent!





Dad and Kayla napping the next day

Tycen builds the coolest things out of just paper and glue! He built a
castle and a knight. Everything stood on it's own!

More music!

Stone Age! A family favorite
