The Elf

I have almost no pictures from the month of November since my camera was in the shop, so on to December!

 Our Elf, Elfie, came back again this December.  The kids were very excited to see him!  This year he brought a letter explaining why he comes and how he ties in with the important reason for the season - Jesus!  He also brought the kids a placemat with his picture on it, and wrapped toilet paper around the tree!  Crazy guy!

 He also made a scavenger hunt around the house to search for pajamas - and they ended up in the freezer! 

I just had to add this picture of Ben - he had to put on 5 winter items for his homework for school (not quite sure what that was about and why - but he sure thought it was funny!) 

Character Walk

 On Halloween the kids were able to dress as story book characters.  As you can tell Ben is a pirate,

 and Elizabeth a ladybug.  I'm not sure what is going on here...

 They're all ready!

 Here's Ben's class all ready for their character walk. 

 Can you see Ben's book in his hand?   They aren't supposed to walk with out a book that goes with their character. 

Here's Elizabeth with a few of her friends waiting patiently for their time to walk.  I always love these days! 

Pumpkin Patch

My camera was in the shop for about a month!  I finally got it back and realized I still had pictures on it from October - oops!  So, I'm on to trying to catch up!.  I didn't even have my camera for Thanksgiving so I actually don't have too many pictures to catch up with. 

 We went to the pumpkin patch with Cooper and Jackson.  The kids had a blast with all of the character cut outs, hay pile, hay maze and pumpkins.  I'll let the pictures speak for themselves. 

 Someones getting a little bored with the pictures I guess!

 Yummy - icies!

 Yeah, that was the best one - crazy!

It was a fun day!
