Santa Carriage Ride...

We went on our traditional carriage ride with Santa, what a fun time!

 

Christmas songs were sung while we waiting in line and the kids got to play the hand bells, which they loved!

 



Mrs. Claus was excited to talk to each child

Each child received a light up Santa necklace before their ride

Aunt...times 5....

Friday after Thanksgiving we drove to Virginia to celebrate my sister Carrie and Amy "tie the knot".  It was a great party, and we found out they are pregnant, with twins!!  So exciting to have babies in the family again, can't wait to be an aunt again, times two!

 

Future Dukes??

We picked up Cooper in West Virginia and he drove with us to Kelly's house.  The kids were awesome in the car.  We made a pit stop at my Alma Mater, James Madison University...hopefully one of these three will carry on the tradition!  Go Dukes!

 

We decorated the tree on Thanksgiving morning....the kids actually decorated the entire tree, which was awesome!

Oreo wanted to help...so he sat in the tree box

Air National Guard Field Trip...

 

We went on a fun field trip to the Air National Guard with Alex and his class.  We saw the fire station, took a tour of a real military plane, including the cock pit, and also saw a bomb robot in action.  It was so much fun to spend the day with him and his class.

 

Science Center and Park Fun...

We enjoyed the beautiful weekend by going to the Science Center on Saturday and then spent several hours at the park on Sunday.  Perfect Fall weekend!
