Getting ready for Christmas
Our Thanksgiving weekend started off with Stuart, Geoff, Steve and I lugging all the Christmas decorations out of the garage to decorate the house. We decided to put the tree in the middle of the foray, so that you can see the tree from the front door. We had fun going the through the crates and finding the treasured ornaments that have been collected from all over the states and Australia. And the ones that the boys made.
Mom, we are done with the tree, right? Sure wish Scott was here.
We are missing middle brother, Scott. 
Stuart, Geoff and I are happy that the tree is finally done.. 
The guys with the tree as it is being finished. Did dad help? Yes... He said we did a good job. And I stayed out of the way....

36th Wedding Anniversary at Pinetop, AZ.
Our 36th wedding anniversary was November 11th. We went Pinetop, AZ for 4 days. We did not know it was going to snow. We went to celebrate at our favorite german restaurant and the weather was clear. By the time we left an hour and a half later it was snowing. It didn't snow a lot, but was enough to enjoy going out into it. We ended up spending the day in front of the cozy fireplace and watched movies. So romantic. A nice relaxing time. 
This is the clubhouse at Pinetop.

Kylie's Gingerbread Man Comes For a Visit
Kylie's gingerbread man came to visit her Nana and Papa after he ran away from her classroom. At first I didn't see him, but when he made a noise while pulling a book off the shelf I was able to get some quick pictures of him before he slipped out of the library and ran towards Kylie's papa's room. 
He just looks so comfortable in my rocker. 
Here he is reading the story about The Gingerbread Man in my rocker that I sit in when I read to the children when they come to the library.
The gingerbread man was able to slip into Steve's classroom when his students came in for third period. He was really interested in what these machines were and what they did. 
He is trying to figure out what these boys are doing on the computer. Looks like some kind of a report.
The gingerbread man followed papa home, because he found out that I was having a Bunco party. He had never heard of it and wanted to check it out. but he was shy at first and stayed hidden behind the pumpkins.
Here are all the ladies who I play Bunco with.
Teri, Diane, gingerbread man, Doris and Britta having fun. That gingerbread man really is having fun with the ladies.
Sam, Cindi Nana, gingerbread man, Daria and Melissa having fun and eating dessert.
Here he is with Kylie's Uncle Stuart and Amanda. We were celebrating Amanda getting her Master's in Education. It was a very nice party with the family. The gingerman enjoyed meeting everyone.
When the gingerbread man found out that Kylie has cousins in Wichita, he just had to go and see them. He had so much fun with them. He went to the park and also the Wichita Zoo. He also ate pizza with them.
After his trip to Wichita, he learned that Great Aunt Lynne and Great Uncle Stan were going to San Diego to sail on their boat for the weekend . Since he had never sailed before, he decided to give it a try.
He had so much fun with Great Uncle Stan at the helm of their sailboat sailing around the harbor. He even saw a seal on the dock, but was to afraid to have his picture taken with it.
