Thanksgiving 2011

We had a wonderful Thanksgiving. The food was very good and we were happy to see everyone. Even Uncle Bobby stopped by! Friday we saw the Spanglers, Aunt Julie and Grandma and Grandpa McLean. We were lucky to have such a beautiful day. Saturday morning we did the Scavenger Hunt at the Celery Bog Nature Center before heading home.

Meg has Pierced Ears!

After Meg's last soccer game we went to Claire's to get her ears pierced. She was so excited about getting them done that she managed not to cry. What a trooper.

Happy Halloween!

The kids are ready for their school Halloween Parties today.
