Without any special orders, here's a brief run down of what's been going on.
- Blake started and finished his first season in tackle football- he did really well! Josh and I were very proud of him.
- Sydney started Run Club and Art Club and did well in both of those as well- she's still doing Art Club once a week and will have a painting out in the Art in the Park sometime in the Spring.
- Mason's a YEAR OLD!! YAY! He started walking on Halloween night when we got home from trick or treating in Fruitport. We had a lot of fun trick or treating and the kids got a TON of candy! LOTS and LOTS of delicious goodness!
- My little sister McKenzie came to live with us in August and has been with us since. It's been a bit of an adjustment for all of us, but I think we're all starting to get used to each other and she's been doing really well. She tried out for a got a small part in the most recent drama club production, Romeo & Juliet. We were very proud of her that she stuck with it and did so well. It was definitely a learning experience for her.
Now, Christmas is almost here. Yep, that's right- Thanksgiving is already passed and we're moving on. I am almost finished with shopping, but have to wrap yet... argh. I like wrapping, but only in small quantities. I have a TON of wrapping ahead of me.
Oh, wait, I forgot- we also got a new puppy! Her name is Pip and she's super cute and has a ton of energy! She'll be excited when we get our next little puppy, Smalls, in a few weeks. She and Smalls will be able to wear eachother out and Bella will finally get to rest.
But, you know me- here are pictures!
