65 degree day for our last day of November!  We went to the IMA and walked around the lake in the 100 acres.  After the hike, the girls played on the "funky bones" and the "lines".  

 Shawn left and we were able to get started on decorating the tree.  I love to see the girls expressions and their gasps of "I remember this one" as they hang their ornaments from years past.  My favorites of course are the hand-made ones given to us.  

 ta-dah!

 They decided to stay another day so we thought we would catch some festivities and fun around town like the Zionsville Christmas parade with the lighting of the tree.

 After, we drove to the zoo where we were able to experience the "Christmas at the Zoo" lights.  It is always so magical and the weather was very nice!

 Out for a photo shoot...stair steps.

 Love these girls so much!!!!  They are such good sports when it comes to the momtographer.

 We decided to celebrate an early Christmas together since we were all together.  It was a great idea and the girls got such nice gifts from everyone too.

 These three spent a lot of time on our trampoline and outdoors this long weekend!

Happy Thanksgiving!!!

We had a full house when we hosted dinner and out of town family for Thanksgiving this year.  We had such a great time and the girls loved having family here to stay and played non-stop with their cousins.  We also had our friends join us from Carmel and cousin Nancy from Louisville.  It was a lot of fun!!!  We missed Shawn but he was able to come on Friday since he worked on the holiday.

 The Juraseks brought a fun gingerbread kit and they all had a great time decorating (and then eating) their creations.

You love to "play" your songs...especially when there is competition for piano time.  One day you will get your turn for lessons!
