Jen played Monopoly with the boys. She quickly learned that the boys have their own rules for monopoly, which she tried to change, and then learned that the rules they have make the game shorter. I bet she wishes she had gone with their rules! :)
Brian got the turkey ready while the boys watched and kept exclaiming "gross!".
Jake made pilgrim and indian hats and placemats for all the kids that were coming. As you can see, Noah didn't want to wear his.
Noah and his friend, Averie. They go to school together and are the best of buddies.

We had two other families over for the day. One from our squadron and one from church. Everyone is watching football in the picture. We really had a great time!
Instead of shopping on Black Friday, we went to the beach to fly kites. It was much less crowded!
On saturday we stopped at the downtown park to let the kids play while Jen, Brian and I hung out on the swings watching the boats and trying to spot a dolphin or two (no such luck!).
I know this jumps ahead of thanksgiving, but we did get the tree set up and this is where Noah ate his breakfast this morning. :)
Out of order, but while we were at the beach we took advantage of Jen and had her take some family photos for our christmas card. We got some good ones, and this is not the one we picked! You'll have to wait until you get yours in the mail! It was funny, there were multiple families there doing the same thing!
I hope you all had a great thanksgiving too!

Somebody is getting big!
Soccer is over and we can finally enjoy some lazy saturday mornings. Hooray!
These boys can't get enough of their new sister. Except when she cries - Jake calls it "annoying"!

That's an awfully big bed for such a little girl! She's four weeks old and already taking command of this house! :)
