Ethan hanging out with mom at the annual Turkey Bowl!
Grandpa Craig shot off film canister rockets with all the boy cousins. It was really cool! Ethan wasn't so sure about it, but he decorated his rocket pretty awesome!
Our annual Thanksgiving Pageant crew.
Ethan was so spoiled hanging out with Grandma and Grandpa!
We have really packed this month full of Christmas stuff, even though our pictures don't really show it. It is so fun to be able to celebrate with Ethan this year because he almost understands what is going on.
We went to a live nativity in Cache Valley. It was so neat! They had a huge camel that would let you pet it, a donkey and it's baby, a couple of sheep, horses, chickens and a nativity program. Ethan was afraid of the camel, but loved petting the donkey (I think it's because of the horses we see everyday in our neighboring yard) we didn't get to stay for too much of the program because Ethan was yelling "whoa" the whole time and ruining the spirit of Christmas for everyone else. :]
A while ago we were feeling pretty bah humbuggy, partially because we didn't have our tree up. Troy came home late, could tell I was bummed. I jokingly told him to go get us a tree and all would be well in the world, and he did. Ten minutes later he walked in with our first fake tree! It's a little small, but it is the perfect size for our apartment. Ethan loves it, and does a pretty good job at leaving it alone. There is a mp3 ornament that plays music that he is allowed to touch, and he plays it all day. He loves it, and dances like crazy.
We had the great idea to go down to Temple Square on Saturday. Along with everyone else on the planet! It was so crowded! Maddi and Eric went down with us, and it was an adventure! We took them to Crown Burger for the first time, then drove around for an hour to find somewhere to park. We were all on one, so it was a good time. :] Hot chocolate, a missed exit, and a diaper leak later, we had quite the adventure.
