November 2020

 

Our lights were flickering like crazy and it turns out the line
was cut underground(don't know how!) and they had to dig, cut,
splice and replace part of it!

M came home from Illinois with the deer that he 
shot last year!  It will NOT be staying here!

My personal opinion!  And, no, I didn't wear it
out in public!

C and his wrestling partner looked a lot like
twins during practice - I didn't get a great picture,
but they are dressed the same;)

And they are threatening to shut down the country again.. UGH!
So people have gone crazy and started hoarding the toilet
paper and paper towels again!

Wrestling practice started... let's just hope it continues!

S had some girls from church over. I didn't
get any pictures of them, but C came home from
the neighbors' and took full advantage of 
the chiminea to make s'mores!

CONSTANT projects around the house!

I voted!

Project on the floor

His favorite Christmas mug.. with his favorite 
Christmas drink, Eggnog!

Kids' rugs finally delivered - now they won't have 
to sleep on the mattresses on the floor;)

Last signs of fall

Lunch at Greenridge and took full advantage
of a pretty tree

S went shopping at the mall with a friend from school - glad
it was her mom that took them and not me!  LOL!

Finished this puzzle!

C chatting on the walkie talkie with the neighbor
telling her everything in the fridge!

Decking the Halls

 Got our tree decorated:)






Wrestling with Cousins

We met Jack and Bo in Georgia to join them in a tournament and have Jack act as C's coach.  Bo and C were in different weight classes so Jack was able to coach both of them for each match!  SO much fun to be there with cousins!  And, C placed first in his weight class winning each match and Bo placed in his weight class as well for his first time!






This was the first girl that C ever wrestled!




Gigi came to watch too:)  So did Robin!

Thanksgiving in Georgia

 Because of Covid, our usual Thanksgiving with ALL of the family in Raleigh was cancelled.  BUT... we managed to still have an amazing time with part of the family in Roswell!  The weather cooperated beautifully for us to enjoy time together outdoors!  Jack and Bo brought their wrestling mat and since four of the cousins are wrestlers, and what a fun and entertaining time it was!!

Grandpa's collection of squirrel traps!

Rockin' out on the amp

S helping Gigi cook

Four square before everyone else arrives


M got turkey carving duty!

The whole crew!

He actually ate more than just rolls!

Started out keeping our distance...

but... just whatever!

Jack coaching Bo and C

Our usual Thanksgiving crew on Zoom

Ice Skating Downtown

The ice skating rink on Main Street opened this weekend so we took full advantage!  We were a little early so we stopped in one of my favorite book stores to kill some time.  Then, we met some friends and the kids skated and had such a fun time!  When we left, they were all asking to go again!  Such a fun little outing!
