Speed Run from Halloween to Christmas!

I feel like I blinked and November flew by. November brought Veterans’ Day, Abigail’s field trip to Devine Acres, an ADHD diagnosis and treatment for her, Thanksgiving, and the kick-off to Christmas! As usual, there are a ton of pictures, so strap in!!

A pop of red is always fun!
Going to the Veterans Day celebration is always fun…especially finding my sweetheart on the Wall of Honor.
They even used his paper from last year. 🙂
A professional photographer got this great picture of Paul. I love it!
Showing Dad (Paul went with her) a rock on the field trip.
Checking out the livestock.
Probably one of her highlights of the trip.
Photo op!
She loves climbing up onto things like this!
She also loves taking pictures in cut outs.
Christmas shoes!
An awesome co-worker got me these cute earrings.
She also gave me these light covers since she didn’t need them any more. I love them!
Pictures from Christmases past.
I love hanging them up so all can enjoy.
Gnomes, birds, and a Grinch to boot!
My favorite Christmas sign, a count down and a Santa I made when I was a teenager!
A little taste of California in that palm frond Rudolph.
A nutcracker I’ve had since I was little.
And another one we got last year.
Decorating her tree.
Decorating his tree. When did he get so big?!
The big tree.
One of my favorite corners.
I love lights!
l also really love black and white!
Showing off her tree.
My piano decorations.
Gotta love funny teacher t-shirts!
Outside decorations.
This is new this year. Paul built the stable for them.
We decided to get a cover for the door this year. It was a good idea!
My happy place!
The Pearl (an old brewery turned shopping area) has the Giving Machines this year, so we went down to check them out. I love downtown at Christmas. The buildings look even cooler!
The lights in the trees were magical.
Had to get the iconic tower!
Abigail loved it!
We decided to purchase a…
…baby goat! Somewhere in the world, a family will now be able to get milk without needing to worry about how to pay for it.
It was nice seeing them so busy. It was a good experience for the kids, as well…to see the types of things we take for granted but others need.
I love this family!!
