November

Someone needs to tell Lucy that if she's going to sneak Halloween candy from the kitchen and eat the same under her bed, she should remember to destroy all evidence.

We took full advantage of some beautiful fall days and had a picnic afternoon at Raccoon River park.

We proudly stood with her on Election Day.  Clearly the thumbs up were given early in the day :(.

Pure happiness when your Grandma Kathy fixes Lambie's skirt, adds some sparkle to the same and mails her back to you!

Because it's pretty awesome to wear a sparkly headband to preschool.

Proud to earn his first Boy Scouts badge for bravery during camping.  BJ might beg to differ on the bravery part...

Should I be concerned that Lucy was THRILLED to have some personalized art from a "handsome" 5th grade boy named Drew?  I think yes.

Enjoying the farm toys at Grandma and Grandpa's house.

And their beloved pink tent.

We love stay home days when we can be lazy bones and stay in pjs for as long as possible!

The crew of grandkids at Thanksgiving!

Charlie getting to open his birthday present from Grandma Kathy and Grandpa Bill a few days early at Thanksgiving.

He liked it :).

Thanksgiving can take a lot out of a little girl and her grandpa...

And just like that, we're in the final month of 2016!
