Our house and November

This is what Bridger and Gideon enjoyed doing is make cup towers during the process of moving in.

Arya eating on the counter for we had no table chairs or high chair yet

Getting our stuff delivered

Finding some things not that well packed :( My pottery from France~

Bridger and Arya being silly on the back porch

She thought this was so funny :)

Kids bathroom upstairs

We laid down a floor in the dining room.  It was all carpet and with kids that is just asking for trouble so we got some OSB board, carpet tape and a 8x12 piece of vinyl and now we have a floor to protect the carpet.

I had an old table I have been wanting to re due for a while now and finally did.  I spent a few hours sanding then painted and stained and hope it would dry by the time the missionaries came for dinner :)  We were good to go.  The missionaried even carried our table inside so we could eat on it.  Joseph's back went out on him due to some strenuous training he did and so he couldn't lift anything so it was great the missionaries were able to do it.

This is Arya's room so far

 Our little princess has a place to lay down her head :)

This poor girl was standing in front of a door when the wind blew it closed and knocked her right out onto the pavement.  She scaped up her face pretty good and eventually looked like Rudolph :)

and our baby girl ready to go play in the snow....she could barely move.  It was really funny!

This is our Thanksgiving feast.  It was so Yummy!!  It was weird just having our family and I prefer having friends and family at dinner but we made due and enjoyed the day eating and watching movies.  I made a juicy turkey, mashed potatoes and gravy, corn on the cob, a fruit salad, homemade roles, pumpkin pie, lemon pie and cheesecake for our feast.....We enjoyed it all weekend.

I didn't get pictures but for our family activity on Saturday we went shooting.  It was the boys first time ever and they got to shoot daddy's 45 revolver.  The LOVED it and we are excited to start teaching them more about guns and safety and how to shoot.  It was fun being up in the hills too.  Made me miss having a motorcycle but it was a very nice outing together as a family.  

After that we came back home grabbed some dinner and made hot chocolate and headed out to the Cheyennes Christmas Night light parade.  We found a spot on the street set out our blankets drank hot cocoa and enjoyed the beginning of a wonderful season.  I love this time of year and look forward to the snow, the Christmas light and the wonderful beautiful spirit that accompany's it all.

Hopefully tomorrow I will be able to head out and enjoy our road trip to Idaho.  It will be just me and the kiddos for Joseph took off for work today.  I was going to go today but since the roads were closed to light vehicles because of 65 mph wind gusts we stayed home today. :)  Better luck tomorrow :)
