We celebrated Papa Dave's Birthday in November.  :)

Pyramid of cousins!

We started a new tradition for Thanksgiving!  We bought the Lego Home Alone House (4000+ pieces) and spent time as a family putting it together.  It was super fun and we enjoyed playing with it all through the Thanksgiving and Christmas seasons.

Gabi dislocated her right shoulder while playing basketball in PE class.  She ended up losing the function of her radial nerve for about a month.  Her PT outfitted her with this special brace to go along with the isolation sling.  She was very upset about having to miss the rest of her basketball season.

We had a quiet Thanksgiving here.  We made lots of food and took it over to Joe's grandparents house to all celebrate together.  I'm bummed that nobody took any pictures.  It was quite the feast!  After Thanksgiving, we found a Christmas tree and spent a little time at the cabin.  I forced my family to take some family pictures.  :)  There isn't much snow on the mountain so far this year and we enjoyed the mild weather.

Jacob loved to help me decorate the tree!

It was even nice enough to do some kite flying!

Jacob wanted to sleep the other direction in his bed so he could see our Christmas lights out his window.  :)

Some pics I took for Joe's parents' Christmas card.  The "weight" is over!
