Uncle Richie and Auntie Jeanna came over to look after the kids so KT and TV could go have a date night. We got them all dinner and set them up as we headed out for a nice dinner and conversation. We had a lovely evening and the girls were mostly well behaved.
It was good fun to put up the lights this year as we had to come up with a whole new design. The girls were helping but then they found some old boxes which were just too irresistible. They even brought Setsuna out to play with the boxes. They had a good time and we were all happy with the end result as well.
That is the question. Either way, MV looked fabulous. Hard to believe that MV managed to hide with that fabulous outfit, but somehow she managed.
EV had a couple of birthday parties to which we went. We also spent a fair amount of time with family and generally enjoyed the season with it's beautiful colours.
As usual November was a busy month as Autumn sets in and the holidays approach. We managed to do quite a lot of creative play including making masks and dressing up. We made time to go outside as well, including walking around the neighbourhood to look at the lights.
This year we all got season passes to Sierra since it is the closest resort. The aim of the season is to get everyone able to ski down green runs and possibly blue runs too. We managed to go on opening day and it was a beauty. Cool and sunny with a nice layer of snow to start. Everyone was hesitant but it was a good day getting their ski legs under them. They all did well and had a good time so that they are all looking forward to the next time we go.
MV and KT did the Run to Feed the Hungry this year while the rest of us watched them go by. It's a pretty relaxed run for the most part with lots of costumes and most people actually walking. We ended up seeing quite a few people including Uncle Terry, which made it even more fun. We then headed to Grandma CeCe's for dinner and to spend time with family.
