Another month behind: Fall back to November

Wow, so another month went by without me doing a blog post and I am working on 3 right now lol.  November was great! The first weekend my sister in law Carolyn and her kids Hailey and Connor came to visit us.  It was great to see them and I know Andrew had a blast playing with his cousin's. That Saturday the kids, Carolyn and I went shopping.  Old Navy was having a coat sale so we went there.  Then we headed to Michael's to kill some time while we waited for Matt to get off work.  After that we went to Culver's to eat lunch.  Our usual spot to eat on the weekends.  Although we haven't been there since so we will probably eat there this weekend. After lunch we dropped Matt and the kids off at the house and Carolyn and I went to run some errands.  We went downtown to some shops and one of our stops was The Candy Factory! Awesome place and a great place to get Christmas gifts!






We headed back to the house after running errands and relaxed for a bit before heading out to dinner.  After dinner Matt watched the kids again (thank you hubby!) while Carolyn and I went to get a drink.  It was nice to catch up with her and have some girl time.

Sunday morning I made french toast and sausage for breakfast then all of all went to church.  We came back to the house and had pizza for lunch.  Andrew needed to take a nap and Carolyn and the kids headed back home! Thanks for visiting us Carolyn, Hailey and Connor! We had so much fun!

The next weekend Andrew went to a birthday party for Parker, a friend from church.  They watched the movie Planes, ate cake and ice cream and Parker opened presents.  The mommy's had some mommy time while the kids played.  We had a blast!

This is Parker.  Andrew got him a couple of Cars cars.


The weekend before Thanksgiving Mitch, Matt's brother, and Connor came to visit us.  Mitch couldn't come when Carolyn and the kids came at the beginning of the month because Mitch had to work.  They got it late Saturday night.  Sunday we all went to church together and then came back to have lunch.  After lunch Andrew had to take a nap.  After his nap, Andrew, Matt, Mitch and Connor had some guy time and went to an arcade and Toys R Us.  While they were out, I decorated the house with Christmas decorations! I knew we wouldn't be home the weekend after Thanksgiving which is when I usually put the decorations up, so I did it the weekend before.






Once we were done with everything, we went to Smokin Chicks BBQ for dinner.  Mitch and Connor went home after lunch on Monday.  It was nice to have them over!

Last weekend was Thanksgiving which I am writing another blog about.

Hope December doesn't go by without me writing a blog or two :)
