November - December 2014

I am way behind, I know!

Many of these are phone pics and out of focus, but they tell our story.

This, my friends is "froggie"  Pronounced "fra-jee".  Translation - a big pile of pillows that the kids jump into.  The pull every single pillow in our house to one spot and yell "lets go to froggie!"



We had nice weather in November!



On November 1, we drove to Carthage to watch these wonderful people get married.  Congrats Mr. and Mrs. Jared Brookins!



On the way home from Carthage, we took the Natchez Trace.  Beautiful and lots of history, which went right along with our American History we are learning in Classical Conversations!





The park needs a handsome-fierce knight!

We took our first trip to the skating rink!


My laundry helper...


We took a field trip to American Village in Montevallo, AL.  We learned all about the Pilgrims trip to the U.S. and their first few years here.


Replica Liberty Bell..


Fall leaves!




Cleaning up the garden

Still working on the bathroom.  But it coming along!


Our sweet neighbor, Ms. Black.  Emily loves her.


My sweet Jenn.  One of my best friends.  I miss her so much


Costco boxes can be used for all types of things!

In December, we gathered for Gingerbread house construction!  It was more candy than I have seen before!





Some school days are cold, we have to take extra measures to stay warm


We went to Briarwoods Live Nativity with Auntie Cheryl!


Zoo Lights with our sweet friends, the Pooles.




We spent MANY days in our jammies and baking cookies, etc.





And drinking hot cocoa...



Christmas Eve was our first experience with Santa, up front.


 The Ross's are always full of surprises!








One day we decided to dress like elves



Making cookies with our neighbor friends




Christmas at Mawmaw and Pawpaws!


My big girl got a guitar for Christmas!









 



 And with that, 2014 is all wrapped up!!!
