Farewell to October and hello November

Oh my goodness these months and weeks fly by! I'm not sure

where they go but do they go fast or what!

We are already weeks into November and
I still feel like I'm stuck in October.

I have all of these cute pictures on my phone of snapshots

of our little life. Too many that I don't want to get overlooked!



Again, we have Halloween. Just. Like. Strawberry Shortcake! 

And my sweet Maddy May

 

Halloween is so much fun at school when you are a teacher!

There are numerous activities/lessons that can incorporate this

fun holiday that the kids LOVE celebrating!

I got my tiny witches hat, my bowl and large spoon, and served

up a bowl of "spooky soup" full of candy for graphing in math.

This is my job! Can't get much better than that. I love coming to school

and being able to determine what my day is going to consist of!

Have I told you how wonderful my class is this year?! That helps a ton too! :)

I could seriously leave the class all day and I bet you they could run that

class alone and be just fine without me!

*Poor Mrs. Toth's face is always swollen in the morning.

Ignore the chubby face! 

One important part of a marriage I think is going on dates! Our preacher has talked about this many many times. It refreshes your relationship and we love being able to relax and talk about our sweet babies and what we want to do when we retire...no lie...we always catch ourselves talking about traveling the world in our little R.V. :) This particular date we headed out to Allen, ate at Brio and did a ton of early Christmas shopping.

Our morning drive is not in the dark anymore! I can now

see these sweet faces in my rear view mirror. We currently

are listening to Christmas music on our morning drives! 

This is not my lunch nor is it Dustin's lunch---this is indeed my

15 month daughter's lunch! She is so much fun to feed!

That girl eats almost every single thing that we eat and she

even says "mmmm" while she's eating. This makes this

momma cookin' girl, HAPPY! 

Another morning drive! 

We went to a cute little country wedding for Dustin's cousin

and the girls had a blast. .

Cam's school pictures turned out so cute!



Now that it's cold outside, nothing is better than

getting these 2 out of the bathtub and wrapping them up in

a warm towel fresh out of the dryer! 

 

Someone caught a yucky cold and didn't feel like eating

much but when I made her a smoothie filled with

strawberries, blueberries and bananas--- she gobbled it right up! 

Dance parties happen quiet often at our house.

 

Today this pretty little girl got all dressed up for her Thanksgiving feast

at her school. She was so excited that I was coming. 

 

She stood so patiently waiting on the song to start and smiled

at her "audience" the whole time :) 

This little boy to her right was a HAM! He is so cute

and has such a fun personality. I bet those 2 have fun together!

They have their special blessing that they say together before

they eat their lunch. The teachers have them cross their feet (so that

they keep their feet to themselves while they're eating) and their

little hands are clasped together.



Our break has begun! As much as we are going to

relax we also have a lot planned.

Dentist appointments, Disney on Ice, Dustin's birthday dinner, Thanksgiving

with the family

and a date with my husband and the Randy Roger's Band!
