Friday

We are soaking up the last bit of warmish weather before the cold front hits this weekend. It was BEAUTIFUL out. Our friend Sarah and Grif came over to go for a trail walk and play at the park. Laura and Tru met us there later.

Slowly walking

William is loving walking backwards. Yes, it makes for a long walk but for a tired little boy and a great naptime.

Madeline thought this was a perfect photo spot.

We had to wait for Will to catch up.

Hurry up buddy!

The slide was a hit today. Grif and Maddie practiced climbing up and it and they would each call for the other one to help them. It was pretty cute. Tru loved when all cheered his big fast slide down.

How cute is that little Grif peaking out behind?

Poor lonely odd man out William.

We headed home for lunch with Nick. Will took an amazing nap and Madeline and I just played around. I then counted up my dishcloths for my MOPS steering and I am 2 short. I must get to knitting tomorrow!

We had our Friday night usual of Mexican fiesta and then we dropped Madeline off at church for a fabulous Christmas party. They heard the nativity story, learned a finger play, sang song, made a craft, and decorated cookies. They even brought home a beautiful book! While she was a church the men and I did all our grocery shopping. It sure is easier with helpers to load and unload. Here is the ornament that Madeline made.

Then Nick and Madeline made fudge!

We are headed to bed because we must get up early in the morning for the USO Santa Express!
