It's the most wonderful time of the year.

 Thanksgiving! Our attempt at a family self portrait. While we have never made it home for Thanksgiving, this was a our first one truly alone.  We missed the Weidners and family, but we made the best of it. Didn't do the annual Turkey Trot run/walk, but instead slept in.
 Grammy and Gpa Rick did visit just before Thanksgiving and they brought the Elf on the Shelf for us to enjoy. I have to admit it has been fun...and, it is a great way to get the girls out of bed every morning. They jump at the chance to see, "where Star is."
 Here she is fishing for goldfish.
 Kendall's list for Santa, to include: 1) Fairy, 2) My Little Pony, 3) Angel Barbie.
 Avery opening her Birthday presents - see previous post.
 She LOVES books!
 She picked out this beautiful cake - strawberry (so pink) with blue frosting...at least it tasted good!
 Gma Rose made a great Birthday dinner!

 At the West Columbia Xmas parade. Again, a sad attempt at a family self portrait.
 At Saluda Shoals light parade. We actually stopped and got out to enjoy smores and a fun slide this year.


 Our lovely Xmas tree!
And...the beginning of a great holiday break!
