Thanksgiving with the Wolf's 2015

This year we had Thanksgiving at my sister Tawnya's house, she is a very good cook so we had lots of good food.  They cooked one turkey on their treager bbq and the other deep fried, both tasted amazing.  Friday we did our Black Friday shopping, then we drove to The dalles.  Along the way we stopped at Multnomah Falls and some people braved the freezing weather and high winds to go get a quick peak, (valorie, lillian, and i stayed in the warm car).  Saturday was picture day and set up christmas day, and we had our family gift exchange.  Poor Ridge got a fever and was sick all Saturday and Sunday so he was sad to miss out on playing with his cousins.  Lillian however got lots of play time, she loves a party and loves lots of people to hold and give her attention.  It was a busy fast weekend and took me a whole day to recover but family time is always a good time.

 

 








 



 
 
Now time to take down Thanksgiving and put up Christmas!!
(Lillian climbed onto the bench, then the table, then the bucket, then bonked her head on the light. I need to keep my eye on that girl)

Our Halloweens

We had lots of Halloween fun this year, it started the week before we went to Ridge' school carnival. He was a storm trooper.  All his little buddies were there and he had fun once he warmed up, Lillian warmed up once she was given a sucker.  The Monday before we went to my friend's Halloween party, he was Rocket from "Guardians of the Galaxy", Lillian and I were slugs.  The Wednesday before was our ward party, Ridge was Iron Man, Lillian was the duck again and I was a pink crayon, and my gingersnaps won second place.  The day before Ridge had a little party at school and dressed up like a cop.  That afternoon I took the kids trick or treating to my old offices, Ridge wore the costume he made out of boxes "box man" and we got loads of candy.  On Halloween Ridge went to our neighbor from church party as a ninja.  Then that evening we enjoyed staying home, eating candy, and watching a movie!
