Thanksgiving in Charlotte, NC

This year we went to Charlotte, NC to my sister Karilee's house for Thanksgiving. It is about a 6 and 1/2 hour drive from here, and the trip was pretty quick considering how long we are in the car for other family trips.

Karilee and Andrew were very good host and hostess I had a great time, and dinner was awesome!! Karilee made a great jello casserole and yummy turkey and ham. My mom and dad came also because Karilee had a baby 6 weeks ago and they hadn't been there to see him yet.






Karilee's kids are Ashely, Ellery, and Michael. They are all very cute children, and Sadie and Ashley played really well together!! I of course loved holding the baby and giving Karilee a break.
We went to the park, played a lot of games, and watched a few movies.





































Sadie loved holding the baby as much as I did.

Russian Nutcracker

Sheridon was in the Russian Nutcracker Tues. the 17th, she was a boy at the party in the beginning. She knew her part very well, and we were very proud of her.
Sheridon said they all spoke Russian except for a few of the main dancers, Donovan did a Russian accent asking her if that was how they sounded and she started laughing and said yes. I am sure this is something she will never forget, and I feel it was a good experience for her to be part of a big production like this!

HALLOWEEN!!!!!

Yay, we love Halloween at our house, the girls had a lot of fun this year dressing up and getting their makeup on. Savannah was a pirate, Sheridon was a genie, and Sadie was a dead bride. We went to the church for trunk or treat and then to a friends neighborhood for some more trick or treating, but Sheridon and Savannah went to a party at a friend from church's house.
