Christmas

We were waiting for the Redskins game this afternoon, so picture time it was!

Busy Saturday

Ava ran her 3rd 5K this morning with Girls on the Run.  She finished in 27 minutes 15 seconds and was the 9th girl to finish for Girls on the Run.

Here's Ava and her running buddy - Coach Megan

Ava runs hard.  She lost her running buddy  and finished strong.

Jenna and Drew went to Rooftop Respite Day which made for an unusual outing of just us.  We had lunch at Benigans and shopped.

We then went to the Delaplaine Arts Center in downtown Frederick and took a walk around.  Amelia and Ava were signed up for an art class - weaving with nature.  Here's happy Amelia in her class.

Dave and I took a quick walk on Carroll Creek.

Here's Eskimo Amelia waiting for the Mt Airy Holiday parade tonight!  It's cold!

The whole group before the parade. Jenna is on the right holding the sign!

 Jenna and her Jazzercise class danced for the parade.  She's on the far left of the photo!

 

Here's Jenna dancing her butt off. 

And we met up at the end.  A busy day done!

Fun Art

Jenna made this yesterday in school during her indoor recess time.  In case you can't see... It's a purse, coins, cell phone with apps, wallet with gift cards and a pack of gum.

Ava brought this home from school.  For fun the teacher had the kids draw a Thanksgiving picture and the kids would vote on the best.  This is Ava's drawing.   Several kids came up to her while the kids were voting on the drawings to ask Ava if she needed to talk about anything due to the content of the picture (the gun).  Thought it was funny.

Christmas Tree

We set up our Christmas tree today! I took this photo because every year it's the same scene.  Do you see who is working, and who isn't? !!

Here's Jenna doing tricks.

Happy Thanksgiving!

 

 Happy Thanksgiving!

Here we are before everyone arrived.

 

Drew helped me cook this morning while listening to music.

Dave is still not feeling well from his kidney stone issue.

The girls didn't come down this morning until aftet 10.  Ver Strange.  They built forts last night.

 

Here's our silly family picture with all of our yummy pies front and center!
