Feast of St. Nicholas
I know today’s feast day typically means shoes filled with chocolate coins and oranges, but since were still eating Halloween candy, we opted for ornaments and book, titled the Catechism of the Seven Sacraments.

We visited a a Christmas tree farm tonight and found our family’s tree 🌲 The kids (and the tree farm guy) all thought it was pretty funny that the tree fit inside the truck 😂
Another trip around the sun
I got to celebrate my birthday with this great group of family and friends. Michelle and Angelo hosted us for dinner and an amazingly delicious pumpkin layered cake.
Gift opening (on the 24th) was full of fun surprises from Jake, the kids, my in-laws, and my aunt Deb, who made a cathedral pane lap quilt using pieces that my Grandma Fran had intended to use for quilting, but was unable to due to her failing eyesight.
Pre-Thanksgiving 2018
Our good friends from KC came to visit for a few days. Many laughs and fun memories were made and we captured a couple of pictures to document how much the kids have grown 😊
This kid loves her godparents so much!
Trip to the local ninja gym for some exercise.

Pink Sister
Our church held their annual craft and bake sale this morning. Shecklet #3 asked if she could buy a pink habit for her American Girl doll. We sent pictures to her godfather, who introduced us to the pink Sisters when we visited him in STL two years ago.
B-ball for Shecklet #3
It was Shecklet #3’s first b-ball game day today! The girls played two games and improved so much between game one and game two! So proud of them!
Annual Orchard Visit 2018
We made our annual trip to the orchard where Grandma Patti works every fall. We went through the corn maze, washed apples, ate apples, picked apples, and selected pumpkins. It was a great day!
