We have been patiently waiting for fall to arrive this month. Unfortunately we seem to be in for an even longer wait. We have had maybe two chilly days. The rest have been in the 70's or higher. I love love love this weather, but I am getting a little sick of my summer clothes, and I am a little over staring longingly at my boots. Getting ready for Christmas with the weather a balmy 78 might be putting a little damper on my holiday spirit. Also, we are moving shortly after Christmas so my inclination is to put stuff into boxes not get it out! November seems to have flown by! We have had lots to do, and we had a nice time celebrating Ellasen's 7th birthday with friends and Thanksgiving as a family.
The girls' preschool took pictures of them, and the proofs came back this month.

| Ellasen was interested in the election so she asked me to stay up a little late to watch. |
We took the little girls to their first ever movie in the theater. We saw Trolls. They loved it!
We had family pictures taken for our Christmas cards. I will post the rest of them next month when our cards go out, but here is a sneak peak. I love this one!
We had a great time at Ellasen's 7th birthday party! It was an art themed party at a pottery studio. The kids each got to paint a piece, and then they got to decorate cupcakes using a painter's palate of goodies to choose from. My friend Robin made the cake, and it was so cute and delicious!

The little girls celebrated Thanksgiving at their school
And we celebrated as a family at home! Tim had four days off of work. I can't remember the last time that happened. We had a great time!
We decorated for Christmas! I have no idea why my pictures turned out this way, but everyone got in on the action this year!
Jennie, our elf came back too!
More random cuteness from the month!
We are looking forward to December and Christmas!
