November

Austynn Faith, what a crazy time your birthday landed on this year :) We celebrated early with dad, because he seems to be working non-stop lately, especially with the upcoming move. Mom was headed to Nevada on your birthday, and you 3 kids came down with the flu that week! So, no school for any of you, and I still couldn't get you healthy before you went to Papa and Nana's :( We went out for frozen yogurt to celebrate your birthday. You also got to pick a gift out from the store - you picked a Doc McStuffins doctor kit. You LOVE doctor stuff!!

 

 Cars, you spent some of your birthday money on Legos. You have always been such a little builder!

 My assistant! Pais, you have been my shadow. You are such a little trooper going everywhere with me! You do a fantastic job and I really enjoy my time with you.

 Bring on the boxes!

 November 7th...Happy Birthday, Big 5 year old!! The card from dad and mom before you headed to Prineville with Papa :)

 Papa and Nana had a cake done special for you! How neat!!

 Here is the house that mommy found while in Mesquite. We are still working on closing on it, but so far, so good. We will have movers come 12/2 or 12/3 and the girls and I will fly down right around that time. Lots of home projects to start us off with - new flooring and fixtures. Mitch and Carson will arrive the 10th or 11th. Carson will stay with Mimi the 1st week of December, while Mitch finishes up at McKenzie-Willamette.

  Carson, when my plane landed (into Medford bc Eugene was too foggy) this is the picture that daddy sent me :) He said you were so brave to let him just continue to yank until he got it out. What fun! 11.10.13

 

The next day you mentioned another loose tooth and before I knew it, you had that baby gone! Your smile is awesome right now! 11.11.13

 Austynn here you are drawing a picture of our new house w the pond in the backyard :) We are all super excited about a house!!

 Enjoying the fun clothes that Audrey and Sophie sent - what a fun and special treat!!

 How precious! Got to give baby Fletcher (Jenny and Russ's boy) some love time. He is sure a cutie pie!

Daddy spent the day with you on Tuesday the 26th. Such a great daddy, you have! This was his first official day off for Thanksgiving week, and he took P to the dentist (his appt), to breakfast, to play at the mall and then they met the kids for pizza lunch at the school. Then I did all my appts in the afternoon (after I caught up on some sleep during my solo time!). Thanks, handsome :)

Carson and Austynn, your last day at Eugene Christian School was Wednesday, November 27th - the day before Thanksgiving. You went for half day, and got to say all your good-byes. We are excited to move, but it is always so hard to say good bye! What a great school and fantastic teachers (Mr. McCallen and Mrs. Callahan) you were able to enjoy! We will trust the Lord for our new chapter in life!

After school we headed to Papa and Nana's for Thanksgiving, where we were able to enjoy mom's side of the family :)
