Our sweet little Pilgrim and Indian. My parents were able to come in and spend Thanksgiving with us. It is always so fun getting to spend time with them.

We went to the park to play. Brooks has become a little dare devil! He has no problem going down the slide head first!

November: ChristGiving
We went to Branson, MO for a week to have Thanksgiving/Christmas with the Carothers. The pics that follow are some of the fun things we did while we were there.

We went to see C
hristmas lights. We let the older kids get in the back with Ron and Margie so they could see the lights better.

Ben was our driver. There was another light display that Isabella really wanted to go to but it $40 per person or something crazy like that. But if you hear her tell the story now she says I wanted to see the purple light tower but it was expensive. Like 40 thousand dollars! :)

Jonathan made these awesome wood figures to represent the Nativity Story. We had a lot of fun painting them.
