Baby dedication

In November we did the baby dedication ceremony with Logan. We commit as parents to raise him in a way that is pleasing to the Lord and dedicate ourselves to teaching him about Christ. It was really special to have all our family there and to be able to dedicate him along with so many friends.

I was comparing back to when we dedicated Carter and I realize

how many more children there are now...we are really blessed.

Thanksgiving celebration

Carter had his first Thanksgiving celebration at preschool. They sang songs and their teachers dressed up and acted out the first Thanksgiving story. Their teachers read off what they are thankful for which was on a feather and then each child put them on the big turkey on the wall. Most kids were thankful for their crayons, bike or toys. Carter was thankful for "All the animals that God made", that is so him.

Carter made both this Indian hat that he wore for the celebration

and this pilgrim hat that Logan had to try on when we got home.

Tourists in Seattle

In early November we went to Seattle with Brady and while he was working we played. We went on a duck tour that took us downtown Seattle and Lake Union. I would recommend it to anyone, we had a great time and enjoyed all the driver's jokes and music. Carter had a lot of fun and we had to pretend that our car was a duck and we took a lot of tours in the Tri-Cities in the weeks to follow.
