A round-up of a few more November moments:
Dan and Joseph puzzling on a Sunday afternoon.
Brilliantly colored trees everywhere.
Bailey helped babysit the kids of Joseph's flag football coach during the last game. This was no small feat - they have six kids under the age of 8! As a thank you gift to the coach we gave him and his wife movie tickets and said we would babysit all the kids while they went to a movie. That took place last weekend, and it was BEYOND wild. I couldn't believe how much 5 tiny kids (they didn't leave the baby) could exhaust two adults, two teenagers, and a Joseph. It took several days for us to put our house back together after the whirling dervishes destroyed it. They were absolutely adorable, but we all decided afterward that we kind of like our mostly peaceful household!
And here's my cute football player with his best buddy and teammate Alex.
Alex has the ball on the left and Joseph is in black on the right.
After the game the coach gave Joseph a great motivational poem to hang in his room.
One of Joseph's super cool and original Lego creations.
Another Joseph story . . . clothes shopping with this boy is always hilarious. He strikes poses in the mirror to see if he looks nice enough in the clothes before he is okay with wearing them.
And this is a random Bailey selfie I found on my phone.
Shopping one day with Aubrey. This girl has a great sense of style. Both my girls do, and they definitely didn't get that from me!
Joseph and Alex after their basketball game (basketball started as soon as football ended). They have had a great season and Joseph's basketball skills are growing tremendously! We have a tradition of getting a McDonald's ice cream after every Friday night game.
Bailey earned her YW Medallion about 15 months ago, but because of some miscommunications with the leadership in the ward she hadn't actually received the necklace. I was released from the Relief Society presidency a few weeks ago and put into the YW presidency, so I was able to arrange for the "official" presentation of the award. Way to go, Bailey!
