Catching Up!

Whoa! A lot to catch up on! I'm going to have to just put photos in here! Ahh!! :) And I don't know where the photos we took at Mom and Dads are....did we take photos? Shoot! 

The kids and I went to Mom and Dads for Thanksgiving, leaving that morning. Dave was on call and worked Thursday and Friday and joined us on Saturday. Okay, on the way HOME from Burr Oak on Sunday after Thanksgiving, we drove to a new tree farm to cut down a tree, our favorite place only had pre-cut. So, a beautiful drive to Westby, Wisconsin!

Hayride to get a tree!
Looking, looking, looking.
Trooper!
This place was so cute
Cookies and cocoa! But no tree for us :( 
We tried. Pretty place.
So, we had just enough time after a failed attempt in Westby, to get to Tomah and go back to our favorite place. We arrived about six minutes after they officially closed. But they were amazing and let us get out and pick our tree and two wreaths. They went above and beyond (changed things and made exactly what we were wanting) they didn't grumble about us being late. I was so impressed and love them so much. We LOVE Hilliker Tree Farm in Tomah! 

The pics do it no justice, it was so fun and festive!
Troopers! 
One of our wreaths:)
Our tree (and it's reflection in two windows:)
Let's see, I think I'll just drop some other random photos in here from around this time - man, I haven't been this scattered in awhile! 


Kate was Student of the Month for her class in November
She really wanted this - we are so proud of her!
Driving to Iowa the weekend after Thanksgiving to make lefse
and do all kinds of fun things!
A smaller group and we had a lot going on (I took Kate to Urgent Care that morning for a UTI)   :(
but we had a blast and rocked out some lefse in a small amount of time. So fun. And yummy.
Ayden wanted to roll:)
Collin wanted to get covered in flour:)
Our crew!
Kylie got us tickets for Juletide!
Fun meeting some other bridesmaids!
Fun night out with my amazing Ma!
We also watched the Hawks of course! Tough game. Tough game.
We've had a lot of random sickness in our household but all seem to be well now! Throughout the last month, we've treated a sinus infection, ear infection, strep, a cyst and a UTI. And there were high fevers and coughs for the kids in there too. We are not usually that sick! It was pretty drawn out, very happy to getting over all that and off all the meds! 

Lots of napping for Dave:)
Lots of cuddles from our sweeties
Okay, that's all I can handle right now:)  I'll have to post sometime about the pretty big endeavors I've embarked upon professionally soon! But for now, I need sleep and I'll leave it at that. I need to mark the occasion of Ayden turning 11 months this week - well, maybe just some pics or video. He'll have a big ONE post soon. WHAT?!?!?! I'm going to be in some pretty deep denial:)
