November

It seems like lately the time has just been a blur.  I feel like just yesterday I was posting about our 7th anniversary and now it is the end of the month and we are getting ready for Christmas already.  WOW!  Well here is our month in a nutshell...

Here is our cutting wood crew!  There have been days where dad has just sent and cut a load by himself because we were running out of time but there is at least one or two times a year we get out there as a family.

We had the chance to ride in the tractor and grain buggy with dad.  Harry was with Joe in the combine and mom, Ellaree, Lorelai and dad were in the tractor.  We were "quite comfortable".

Ellaree tried out hockey.  She looks so tough in her gear.  She is a natural on the ice.  Lor has already informed us that she will be doing this next year when she is 4!

Ellaree got a ribbon for perfect attendance for the first quarter of school.  We are so very proud of her.

We had quite a scare a week ago.  Ellaree got her first ride in the wheelchair at the clinic as she couldn't walk.  She had a really bad virus where she had a rash, fever and had arthritic symptoms.  Thankfully she was able to pass it and is doing very well now.

We love twinklefest parade the night after Thanksgiving.  I love how Harry has his arms around the girls!

Harry had to eat his lunch here and watch the combine out the window.  It was so cute and he loved it.  He is a natural farmer.

I think Lorelai should be the next Kwik Trip model for eggnog.  She loves her eggnog!
