Camping Thanksgiving Weekend

After our bellies were full of food and we had more dessert than we knew what to do with we left for the desert to do some camping. We had a great time, and weather that couldn't of been any better. We went on a long ranger ride on Friday morning, the only draw back on this ride was since Arizona doesn't get much rain it was very dry and we ate lots and lots of dirt. That didn't stop our ride we enjoyed the scenery and the nice long ride. The rest of the trip the kids did their non-stop ranger riding and lots of game playing and a washer tournament. We had our big bonfires at night and the roasting of marshmallows. It was a great camping weekend with family and great friends.

Student of the Month

Tori was the November Student of the Month for her 5th grade class. The school does a assembly and they call the students name and they run through flags and then run through a teacher tunnel. Its really neat how they recognize the kids.

Papa's birthday with all his grandkids

Today there wasn't any school due to Veterans Day so we went to visit my parents and celebrate my dads birthday which is tomorrow. I picked up Cody and Tyler and headed over. Sheri and her girls met us there. We ate pizza then had brownies and ice cream and then played a little bit of frisbee golf. It was great weather to be outside and of course the kids always have fun together. :))

All of us
