November, 2015!

November was such a fun and busy month, too.  We began November at the Arkansas Baptist State Convention in Hot Springs.  The children stayed with Papa and Gigi, so we could both go, and it was such a treat! 

A group of college students from Ouachita came to sing while we were there.  

Including our very own Miss Maggie from church.  

Tilly enjoyed dressing up like a book character day.  She chose Evie from Descendants.  

The boys all went to the Camo & Gumbo supper at our church, and Carter won a gun! We could not believe it!

Summer with the help of Daddy did a wonderful job on her Indian pueblo.  They now use this for their shopkins, so creative!

I went with Story's class to Pinnacle Mountain.

It was the perfect day for a field trip!

This handsome fella and I hopped around to all of the Thanksgiving programs at school.

Summer was first.

Gigi got to come with us, which was such a treat!

Mommy and Daddy with Summer.

Then, we went to Tilly's feast.

She had so much fun!

Lastly, Story enjoyed her feast with her classmates.

We were so proud of our three girls.  Carter didn't have a program, as they stop after Second Grade.

The boys enjoyed a hunting trip.  They camped out overnight and everything.  Carter LOVED it so much he is still talking about it!

For Thanksgiving, we traveled to Georgia to be with my sister and her family.

We couldn't drive through ATL and not stop to ride the Pink Pig, one of our favorite Atlanta traditions.

I also got to have supper with one of my dearest friends in the whole world.  Destinee and I have been friends since elementary school when her family moved to Statesboro, and I am so thankful that we have kept in touch over the years.

The next morning, we had breakfast with T and Hart and all the Holland cousins.

Wednesday was this handsome fella's birthday, and he spent it driving us all over the sights of North Georgia, including Babyland General Hospital, where the Cabbage Patch Kids are born!

We loved our time with all the Holland cousins.

We spent the afternoon playing at a park in Helen, Georgia, where Story and Tilly showed off their mad monkey bar skills.

They can both go backwards on the monkey bars, what!

Meanwhile, back in Jacksonville, our town celebrated David's birthday. . .

And Gigi's birthday, which is the same day! A sweet friend sent me a picture of the sign with their names on it.

We loved our time in Georgia for Thanksgiving.  We took Christmas card pictures on the campus of the University of Georgia, which was so much fun! This is one of my favorites.  November, you gave us much to be thankful for, and we enjoyed every minute of you!
