It's Been a While...

So the month of November has passed by in a blur, and it is already creeping into mid-December.  This means I must get into Christmas mode and quickly!  November was a very busy month.  We started the month with the girls being sick, had a healthy week, and then another bug invaded our home :(  Then we each had conferences, a day off, Thanksgiving and we began to deck the halls for Christmas.  Emily was so excited to see all of the holiday decorations and loved helping decorate the tree. 

We did manage to take her downtown for the Light Festival Parade.  She loved going to Chicago and can't wait to go back.  She also had fun enjoying the first few flurries of the season complete with hula hoop and deflated soccer ball and the first real snow fall. 

Here are a few pictures to update you on the past month...hope you enjoy.
