November 2011 Catch-up

November was a fun month for us. Caroline was off track for 3 weeks and we went to Denver for Thanksgiving to be with my parents and my grandma. These photos are our November in a nut shell!

We spent a morning at Great-Grandpa Don's playing in the leaves. I am not kidding when I say there were probably a million leaves in his back-yard. It was a blast! I love this picture of the twins having a leaf fight.
Reagan knew exactly what to do in the large piles of leaves.

Grandpa's leaf blower helped make the huge piles of leaves for the twins.

One of our favorite things to do with my dad is go on hikes. We went on a hike and this was the first one we had taken the twins on with Pa.

Here is everybody at the beginning of the hike.

Here are Caroline and Reagan at the top! They are pretending to be queens of the mountain!

Here is the part of the view from the top.

Here are my cute parents at the top!

Us girls at the top! Just a side note: The twins were tired on the way down, so Pa came up with the idea of "power juice." They would get sips of "power juice" (water) from his Camel Backpack
to give them energy to finish the hike. They loved this idea! They would power up and then walk a ways and then need to power up again. This is how they got back to the car. It was so cute!

Rich and the girls playing in grammy and pa's cul-de-sac. I love this picture. Rich and Reagan have the same expression on their faces. You gotta love Rich on the Barbie scooter!

One afternoon while we were there, we took the kids to Mr. Biggs' Family Fun Center. They have this ball cage with foam balls that you can shoot, suck up into a bucket that topples over when full, and ball blowers. It was a blast for kids and adults. I think Pa had as much fun as the kids.

Grammy was supervising the girls in the Little People Town.

Caroline loved sliding down the bouncy slides.

I think Reagan was trying to shoot Luke who was up on the second level.

We had a great time! Stay tuned for December updates coming soon!
