Hello again! November 2019

It's time to catch up on my blog!  Sometimes I think why, it's been so long, but that's the way it goes!

Zane was into Charlie Brown.  I checked out the complete comic strips of Snoopy from the library.

 It's fun looking back over pictures.  We came up one weekend near the beginning of November.  Fall is beautiful in Leakey.  Jeff had just gotten back from a work trip and had gotten the kids some fun craft/science kits.

Aoudad sheep came in that morning!

Rachey got a pottery wheel!

And Zane a science experiement kit!

Setting up the new protein feeder.

Yep, it's coming out daddy!!!

Found aoudad horns! 2 sets!

I love this picture!

 Monday was my birthday and also Veterans Day.  The kids had school off but Jeff had to work, so my mom went with us to the Veterans Day parade!  Our first time!

He loved all the army stuff!

Yay!!!

Shooting hoops!

 We were maybe the first house in our town to put our Christmas lights up!  We put them up before Thanksgiving!!! It was wonderful!!!

 Time for a cookout!  Finally cool enough!

 Time to visit the dentist! 

 We had our first family Thanksgiving at our house with Jeff's side.  Rachey helped me make a delicious pumpkin roll!

Thanks Grandma Janie for crafting!!!

And cooking!!!!!  How fun!!!

Scientists!!!

Horseshoes afterwards!

Hotdog cookout!

 Our 2nd Thanksgiving in Leakey with mom!

Making a nature book!

These two.  They could literally craft all day and probably not get tired of it. 

Yay!  He joined in!

A little monkey!

Gotta keep the birds housed.  haha

Two sweeties!

It looks like we had a terrific November!  I'm so glad I posted these.  I like seeing the great times. 

More November fun!

We got to have several Thanksgivings this last year.  We are so thankful we have family nearby!

We went to celebrate my birthday and early Thanksgiving with our family in Sargent.  We might just rename that weekend "Pecan Picking Weekend."  We picked so many wonderful pecans.  It was so much fun!  Everyone joined in!

This girl can eat her weight in pecans.  And then she won't be hungry for supper.  haha!

This old magnolia tree is perfect climbing for them and they love it!

Next we were home for a few days and then Zane was on Thanksgiving break, so we went to my mom's for a couple days, then back home for Thanksgiving with Jeff and Grandma D.

One of my birthday presents from Rachel.  I've always wanted one! 

Look what Rachel wrote!

Zane learning multiplication from Dada!

He loves it!

Cooking with mama!

 And we went to our dentist visit!  They did great!  Why wouldn't they, they were watching videos!  Except Zane-he didn't want to. 

 Back at Grandma D's for a few pictures.

White mist flower seeds!  I'm so excited to plant them.  I hope the chickens don't scratch them up. 

Sitting in one of Opa D's favorite spots.

View Opa D would have had.  Such a pretty tree and much brighter than this picture shows.

We found "treasure" on a walk.  :)

Devo Sunday night by our fearless leader.

More crafts!

I couldn't believe it-he wanted a styrofoam ball that Grandma D and I were using for crafts.  I finally gave in and am so glad I did. He made a TIE fighter all of his own idea!  He's so creative!

Little Debbie donuts!!!  Their fave!

We found a park right outside of Leakey!  It was alot of fun!

 We went Christmas tree shopping on Black Friday!!!  It's always fun especially because Mom was still here!

Guess what comes after pecan picking?  Pecan cracking!

Whew!  Lots of fun in November!
