November moments

Yes...I admit it; I'm truly a blog slacker. The motivation just hasn't been there. But I wanted to make sure you knew we weren't just sitting on our duffs for the last month. Well...we probably were judging by the state of my house for the last couple of weeks, but there were moments of activity in there somewhere.

First, there was Halloween.


Who else but Lillian could make such a dirty face look so adorable!?! Even though we didn't do any real trick-or-treating (we just went to the trusty Wal*mart), she was perfectly content with her pile of candy and had such a good time.



Next, there was Disney on Ice.


What a great excuse to go see all the Princesses skate. Last year, she had fun, But this year, I think she finally caught the whole experience. She had a great time with Uncle Lars and Addison on the ride to Salt Lake and back and actually watched most of the show this year. She could name all the princesses and was just THRILLED when Tinkerbell came out. Despite the break down during intermission and half way into the second half, it was well worth the trip.

We also spent an afternoon getting our annual family pictures done. Meg always delivers.


I don't know if the next set of pictures qualifies as not sitting on our duffs since we were at home, but really, how could I not share? Since I do a fair share of my Christmas shopping online, Lillian decided to try a recent box on for size. How much do you think postage would be??? For Erik of course...not Lillian. :)


And one last picture, just for fun...
