November went by quickly between work and fun. Here's how we spent the last week or two of November... We took this kids down to the Taft Theater in the city for a kids production of Peter and the Wolf. Charlotte and Oliver got to make crafts, see instruments up close and then we watched the orchestra play some of our favorite songs. The kids loved every bit of of it...especially a Skyline lunch downtown afterwards.
Melissa got to attend both kids' Thanksgiving parties at school. Can you tell that Ollie is proud of his turkey?
Charlotte tasted pumpkin pie for the first time and came home with some pilgrim and indian finger puppets. We had several puppet shows over the next few days at home :)
Melissa always comes up with clever Thanksgiving shirt ideas for the kids. Our kids love to paint, so this one was especially fun for the them! You'll see the finished product soon.
We all got up early on Thanksgiving morning and drove to the city so Charlotte could run in a fun run. That is her lucky tutu and leg warmers you see. She was most excited to see her kindergarten teacher there to cheer her on. Mr. Stahl snapped this picture at the finish line.
Proud of Charlotte and her medal.
Here are the cute shirts all said and done. The kids are pretty darn cute too, huh?
The day after Thanksgiving we made our annual trip our to Corsi Tree Farm to pick out this year's tree.
Ollie looks pretty tough with that saw doesn't he?
Charlotte was a great helper dragging the tree to be baled up.
Marching off with our tree!

The next day we came to the tree farm again with our friends the Smiths. Look out for our Christmas card for those family pictures.
Hope you had a great Thanksgiving. Looking forward to Christmas and more time with family and friends.
