So much to be thankful for!

Daddy started to get all of his stuff ready for his elk hunt and we finally launched the rockets we have been building. One at home, and one at the park on thanksgiving. Daddy was gone for almost two weeks and I missed him terribly. We went to Higs gym after school one day with the Hills and then went out to dinner with them. Mama was on call and we spent the weekend with papa and grandma. We went to the home depot workshop and built a humvee. When we got home, mama built us a blanket fort and we watched a movie while she made dinner. After daddy got home, I had a crazy dress up week at school. There was crazy mix match outfit day, 50's day, ducks and beavers day. I dressed up every day:) we didn't have school the week of thanksgiving. On thanksgiving day we went to the gym and then met or friends at the park for a mud football game. I had so much fun sliding in the mud, it was awesome! Then we started decorating the house for Christmas, we even put Christmas lights around my bed!

I'm still doing well at swim lessons and I don't like having daddy gone for so long! Grandma came down another day while mama worked, she even took us for an ice cream cone after we picked up Jace from school. We have been helping mama rake leaves and jumping in the big piles. I dressed up with Jace on his crazy mix match dress up day, it was super silly! I have been a good girl at bible school and enjoy going:)

Eat, Drink and be Scary!!!

We had a busy month, filled with fun adventures. We met lala and Grace at Disney on ice and spent the night with the Garrisons too. We had fun with both, but mama got in her first fender bender on the way there. It was scary, but we were all ok. We went to Aven's birthday party the next day and miss Annie was there. One day I looked everywhere outside for some flowers to pick for mama, but I didn't find any, so I picked her a bouquet of beautiful leaves. I'm learning lots in school and mama has been coming to help Mrs Anderson on Mondays. We went up behind the house and shot my 22 for the first time with daddy. Soccer is great and I have made goals every game. After one of my games, we went to Roseburg for uncle Nick and auntie Lori's annual Halloween party. I dressed up as a ninja and we played lots of really fun games! We also went to the pumpkin patch with my whole kindergarten class and mama came to help chaperone. We had a fall festival and a Halloween party at school too! After school on Halloween, we went trick or treating in the town of rogue river and then came home to have a hot dog roast and chili down by the creek. We made our own mummy hot dogs!

I loved Disney on ice, I even dressed up as Ana to watch the show. My favorite part was watching Arial fly up in the air and eating popcorn that lala got us. I had fun in Natalie's play house in the her back yard and we had a yummy steamer with sprinkles for breakfast. Aven's birthday was so fun, I got fairy wings, my face painted and watched a puppet show by miss Annie. I dressed up as Minnie mouse for uncle's party and my favorite part was hitting the pinata. I dressed up as Spiderman to go trick or treating and we went through a haunted house and I got really scared! We got to pick one candy to eat after our hot dog roast and I picked a popcorn ball, it was delicious.
