November

Thirty days hath November - thirty very busy days...

Finn  began our month by being inducted as an honorary member of the National Honor Society.

                                                        Way to go, Finn!

After a two month hiatus, we returned to the Ogden Temple. They are still completing the window replacements, but we are sooooo happy to be back!

(You can see the scaffolding. The new windows are beautiful.)

We are always so happy when David comes to visit. It gives us a chance to get together and catch up.

We were even able to celebrate the two November birthdays together.

And speaking of those birthdays...Finn turned 18 and David turned 39 on November 10th.

Yay! Yay! Yay!

Sister Emma returned home from her mission!

Salt Lake City Temple Square Mission

Our little runners - Sean and Esplan - weren't done yet. 

Esplan received a letter for X-Country.

And both boys were able to compete at the Nike Cross Regional (NXR) in Arizona.

Dad/G'pa is getting better every day.

This is just one of the the many piles of leaves our trees drop every fall!

Cooler weather = puzzle time.

Our first one was muito dificil.  

Yes, it had a flip side - so we used a pancake turner to simply flip it over.

Puzzle #2 was a bit easier.

Pet News - 😊 and 😢

We met Dude.

We said good-bye to Prodo.

Family trips took the Texas people to Oklahoma.

The NJMs made a quick trip to Arizona.

We gathered together...

In Texas

                 In Lousiana              

  

In Idaho

In Utah

Emma's Homecoming talk was amazing.

And we ended the month with a quick airport run to pick up Alex and Amanda and Murphy.

December is just hours away. The tree is up. Decorations adorn the house. Plans for the big family get-together are being made. 

Can't wait!! 

See y'all soon!!
