Penny's First Lost Tooth, Thanksgiving, and More!


Penny started getting wiggly teeth so I had to get a picture of her baby teeth before they started falling out!


First tooth coming out!


We have a video of Cameron taking the tooth out. Paige was standing very close watching. We were all surprised when the tooth came out and seemed to land right on Cameron's leg. Well, when we zoomed in and watched the video we saw that the tooth flew out of Penny's mouth, hit Paige on the forehead, and then landed on Cameron's leg. Pretty funny. 


She was sooo excited to lose a tooth! The tooth fairy always brings something special for the first lost tooth. Penny woke up to $1, a new toothbrush, and mouthwash!


Thanksgiving!


For Thanksgiving this year we decided we would go and see Frozen II. We watched the first Frozen movie on Thanksgiving Day when it came out 6 years ago in California. We decided we better carry on the tradition.

We came home after and ate a turkey dinner with stuffing and potatoes and rolls. The works. Followed by a delicious pumpkin roll, pumpkin pie, and buttermilk pie. 

My parents came in time for dessert and we got to visit with them for the evening. Perfect way to spend the holiday. 


Our sweet ministering sister brought the girls chocolate turkeys. 


This pumpkin roll was so delicious. I need to make one again soon. 


A trip to Mobius with the girls on their day off. 


Aubrey helped Paige make a hat. 


Ada loves to do her hair and has started playing with different hairstyles. She loved this one for a week or two. 


Emmett and Lewis got to come over for a cousin playdate. I had to take the truck to the shop for some reason. So we hung out there for a bit. They had donuts and popcorn and enough snacks to keep us entertained for nearly the whole time we had to wait. 


A mini donut shop near us was having a Harry Potter themed week. The donuts looked beautiful and were really fun to look at. But they were only okay to eat. 




Running through the wall to catch the train to Hogworts. 



Prettiest donuts ever. But overpriced and besides the decorations they were only okay. 




Sleepy girl


Penny had to disguise a turkey for school so it wouldn't get eaten on Thanksgiving. She wanted to do a flamingo. It was a fun family activity. 



The girls love putting on shows!


Cousin time! We love visiting the Dalton's and their new house. 


And Great Grandma gets lot of attention. 



Paige is almost a Sunbeam! They started bringing the 3 year olds in for singing time to practice for next year. It's fun to be in primary and watch her from the back. 


I love this picture Cameron took on his phone. So much going on. Mermaid tail, Paige has no pants, Ada's glasses and her hand around Paige. And the cool marble run. These are the moments we will miss. 


Grandma visited and we decided to set up the tree with her. Paige would not stop talking. 






These girls love their Great Grandma and it's fun to see them continue to build a relationship with her.

Daltons New House and More


Our Dalton cousins bought a house! And we are so excited for them. The location is perfect, the land is gorgeous, and the house is so fun. We can't wait to join them to make some fun memories at their new place!



So many things to explore!





We are excited for the Dalton's and their fun new adventure!


We got the cousins together for a trip to Flying Squirrel on Saturday. It was so much fun. 



Daddy bounces


It feels a lot higher than it looks! Our kids are brave!


Sword fight!


I bought a box of something called Ooz-o's at Goodwill. One Sunday afternoon the girls needed an activity. It was surprisingly easy and fun. And actually super cool. 




Paige and I helped clean the temple grounds one day. 




Sunrise Skate Night at Roller Valley


Paige being silly with our headphones


And me forcing Paige to go hiking with me. She was not happy at all this day that I was making her hike. I thought she would fall asleep but she never did. On the way down from our 5 mile loop we started making up silly stories about birds picking us up and flying us home and she was much happier.
