November’s Goings-On

Catch-up continued…

November was when Jack started school and they invited the local fire department out to show the kids their gear and play in the fire truck.  Jack was ecstatic and darling, but for some reason I didn’t bring my camera! I tried taking pictures on my phone but only this one came out okay.  So sad! Anyway, he was locked onto what the fireman was saying and doing – so much so that he completely ignored my calls to look at me and smile. 

 

Some other fun things that happened are… Jack picked out his own clothes and dressed himself for the first time! Brown was the color of the day.

 

Tommy started smiling and giving up the most adorable gooing sounds!

 

Pete and Jack helped PopPop mow the lawn:

 

We took some family photos:

 

And enjoyed some great snow days!

(There’s not much of Tommy and me since we were inside staying warm and fighting off the nasty pneumonia!)

 

Thanksgiving was the big event in November – we got to enjoy two delicious dinners!

It was so fun having the Goldings up and having a big feast with Ricky and family and Billy and DD and family. (Not sure why I didn’t get any pictures of the other families… hmmm… I’ll blame it on being sick.)

 

After the mid day feast with my side of the family, we headed over to Art and Connie’s house for another feast with Pete’s side of the family and some great friends! Again, I didn’t take any pictures and I think Jack had had enough of my forgetfulness so he took up the camera himself! Here are some of his better shots:

Good job, kiddo!
