Officially thanksgiving break!  Started off with work outs and getting my moms hair cut.  Now three generations of bobs.

Love having family join me at the gym!

Tuesday we went to Alley Cats to play.







Always fun to play at Alley Cats.

Then we had to go home and see if I have been passed up by McKay.  I know Cliftons passed me, but a couple people while we were out asked if she was taller than me.  I didn't think so, BUT she has.



Now two are taller than me!  Didn't think this would happen so soon.

Wednesday was a beautiful day for a hike.







We may have got a little lost and ended up hiking over 4 miles.  But they kids did great and it was a good day to get lost in the woods.

Thanksgiving day started with a workout - Blink indoor Turkey trot.  

Second year in a row I came in first place.  Not as fast as I'd like, but I still got it ;)

Dinner time!  I love that it's a simple dinner for us and that I didn't spend all day in the kitchen.


Simple but yet perfect.  

Love this crazy crew!

Started another day with a workout with these lovelies.
Then got our toes done and ready for our trip!
Thanksgiving is over which means now is the time we can decorate for Christmas.







Beginning to look like Christmas around here!

Saturday we got to go to a BYU vs TCU volleyball game.  It was a lot of fun and close games.





Totally would go again to a game.

Celebrated Treasures birthday!  She's 7.  Just love her sassy, lazy, and moody ways.  She's a great pet.

Finally got to play some soccer again.  For some reason there isn't enough interest or teams playing at blue Sky anymore.  We have missed it.  It was just an open play but we had a blast!

Getting in the holiday spirit the best way I know how!  By giving.  Asked Gym members to help donate food for NISD snack pack program.  They sure came through.  I was floored with the donations.










My mom came into town just in time to help with the finishing touches of the project.  Some of the gym ladies stayed after and put together 230 packs!!!!  NISD was thrilled.  As was I.  love being able to give and to be able to share that experience with amazing people.

My mom is in town so we took advantage of time alone and snuck out to Austin for some USMNT soccer.



Nice walk through botanical gardens 
Lunch!
Then stopped at Dr. Pepper museum in Waco.  
On our way out we passed by Waco's Branch Davidian's sight where there was a death of 76 people.  We went to Oklahoma Bombing museum earlier this year so felt appropriate to stop by.  It was crazy creepy and abandoned but still had some people living there.  It was a quick visit!

Saturday was our annual ladies turkey bowl. As usual it was a blast!  Great group of ladies and lots of fun.


I have been working on Polar Express Train for our ward Christmas party, that we won't be able to be at ;)


I LOVE how it turned out.  So cute!

Our neighborhood had a Diwali, the Festival of Lights event at our neighborhood park.


We tased food, got some henna, and watched some dances.

Sunday we decided to build a giant fort and watch a show together.


Captain loves to climb ladders and thinks he is king of the fort.

This week Hazen was also complaining of ear pain and not sleeping.  We took him in and he has an ear infection.  Got him on medicine quickly!
