Photos from Phones - November 2017 Round Up

November seems so long ago as I'm looking back on these photos mid-December to finally get them published.  Slow down a little, would ya, Time?

11.5.17
(just my family in a giant box. nothing to see here.
move along.)

11.5.17
(I was wondering what these little red marks
on Sam's face were, worried that they might be
hand foot and mouth since his friend Charlie
was going through it at the same time these
popped up. Turned out to be nothing but a cute
smile.)

11.7.17
(an early morning with my train lover)

11.7.17
(swim lesson watchers, Sam and Annabel)

11.7.17
(today he (and Annabel) discovered the lockers
in the dressing room at Cal's swim lessons)

in the showers)

(Henry (Annabel's brother) wanted to share the
only seat shower with Cal)

11.8.17
(makin' snow at Nordic!  I took this from our
friend Charlie's porch to send to Gregg who
was in VT)

11.11.17
(Gregg sent me this from the plane - he knows
how I love clouds!)

11.11.17
(we were still having mouse problems, specifically
one mouse was a big problem. I left 9 traps up in
(mostly) the kitchen while I was in Cache Valley
for a couple of days, and when I got home not
a single one had a mouse, but this one had been
dragged away from its spot under the dishwasher
and had a disgusting wad of hair stuck in its stickiness
when I got home.
eew eeew eeeeeew!)

11.12.17

thankful turkey)

of the floor in the living room at 10:15 while
playing "camping" with Cal)

11.15.17

he had napped already in the morning we said
yes to Cal's request for a hike on the birdsong trail)

by me!)

about spent at this point)

bright smiling girl in front of it)

treating)

to get out in the first snow of the season. (she
doubled up on the sweats to keep her legs warm.))

11.26.17
(Cal gave her first talk in primary - finally!
She was so stinkin' excited and so stinkin' adorable.)


bonus video!

(she was amazing in the real thing, too - she just marched up to the stand,
and read her talk like it was no big deal. the presidency behind her kept craning
their necks to see if she was really reading.  and she was.  I was so proud of how
brave she was. it brought tears to my eyes as I stood next to her and watched!)


11.28.17

the lake is not nearly as low as last year!)

stick))
