November fun...

We've had a very busy November and a wonderful Thanksgiving. The Hanley's came up for a few days and we've had a lot of fun. This is a long post, but watch the video of C at the end of the post...too funny!

Kalee and Rich got on the roof a couple weekends ago to start our Christmas lights...hopefully we will put the finishing touches on the lights this weekend!
The whole family went to Kalee's Thanksgiving Feast at school. The food was super delicious, as usual...ha!!! Kalee has a new friend, Elizabeth, who joined us for lunch.
Grammie and Nana
and Papa...
and Momma and Daddy...
We've had a very laid back visit with the Hanley's...we haven't strayed too far from home this trip. Shellie, C and I have watched movies every night - some have been great (The Proposal), some not so great, but a great way to end each day! Shellie has always wanted to shoot skeet, so we brought out the shotgun today to see how eveyone would do...

Cierra shot the clay skeet on her first try! Rick connected with a couple, too...
Then we moved onto the rifle...
and then we moved onto the handgun...
Rich gave us all good instructions on the proper way to handle the guns and everyone really enjoyed the target practice.
Ok, so after the initial freak out moment we have all had quite a few laughs watching this video tonight. C did a great job of keeping everything under control and even kept the gun pointed at the ground during the excitement. I missed some of the funniest moves, but I was pretty sure she was about to rip her shirt off, so I figured I should not record it! We've all decided that she has been quite the sport for letting us laugh at the video all night...

That's a classic!! I felt a little fear as I was laughing like crazy, watching that gun wobble around!!

We miss Kalee! & you guys too. Also, I just want to clarify that the upstairs window to the proch roof is not an exit - for the future Kalee : )
