Turkey Month

The lawn mowing crew was out in force for the last day of mowing.

We visited Belle Isle for my first time this month. We went to the aquarium that was very beautiful.

And went to the conservatory next door. 

The boys were hard to keep track of in this building. The plants hid them really well. 

The tree towering above Alex and Evan will be cut down soon. It is almost touching the top of the window ceiling. 

We visited with my grandparents and the boys gave Grandpa some entertainment. 

At the Ernst Thanksgiving we got all the babies together for a photo. Eliza, Eli and Edward.

The big kids got in on the photo op as well. Everette, Evan, Alex and Norah. (Yes, we are aware there have been a lot of E names in the family in the last 3 years.)

Always enjoy my little helpers on waffle day.

Alex and Evan enjoying their Charlie Brown Thanksgiving meal at preschool. Mrs. Pam Alex's preschool teacher joined them.

The boys and Eliza enjoying a few more times jumping into the leaves.

Eliza is ready to jump in.

Thanksgiving at our house. Might need another table next year.


The day after Thanksgiving we stayed home and set up the tree. Eliza couldn't take it anymore, she had to have a nap.

After the tree was up we popped some popcorn and watched a movie.

The boys love their play dough.

Eliza had some baby competition this month when Baby Alex came to visit. 

Ain't she cute. :)

The boys got a special treat with having glow sticks in their bathtub. It was super fun until Evan decided to chew on the sticks.... no more glow sticks for a while.

Nice clean happy baby.

She loves to smile, and she's ready for Red Robin Fries.

The boys enjoying church. These great coloring pads just need water to work. Great for church!

Look who destroyed the shower curtain. Boys. 

My beautiful baby girl

Evan napping... always has to have that thumb.

Daddy and Eliza enjoying church, and both happen to be wearing yellow that day.

We finally got to see Santa this past weekend. He was such a friendly Santa. Spent extra time talking with the boys and asking them what they want for Christmas. Eliza doesn't really like strangers, or people that aren't her mommy and daddy.

The boys were so ready to go out yesterday after we got snow. So we got all their gear on and off they went. Evan was back in 10 min later.

A little wrestle fest before naps.

Then back outside after naps. This was Eliza's first time in the snow. She didn't hate it.  

See you next month.


Keeping Busy is our middle name

We joined some friends for bowling, turns out the boys really enjoy it. Evan is already perfecting his form. Eliza tries really hard to get ...
