The Rest of Thanksgiving Break

After school on Tuesday we met some friends at the park before
heading home to pack and cook for Raleigh.

Before leaving town on Wednesday the kids and I had to
run a few errands and M worked before hitting the road!

Fishing!

There were LOTS of tangled lines during this outing!

I got some decorations up and then we had our first fire in
the fire place for the season!  Hopefully to be followed by
many more!!

We decorated our tree!

The kids love hearing the story behind each of the ornaments
as I pulled them out of the box and gave them to hang them
on the tree!

The kids did pretty much the entire tree, except for just a bit of
help from M to string the lights and hang some ornaments at the
very top of the tree.  There are several on some branches and bare spots
without and ornaments in others, but it is a tree they are proud of and
I wouldn't try to "fix" it for anything!
