November 2011

November was pretty calm for the most part.

Riley raked a lot of leaves.

Riley also helped Grandpa Phillips cut up wood with the wood spliter.

(Chase supervised)

We worked hard on having Chase sleep in a big boy bed all by himself during naps so that in a few months he can sleep in his own bed at night too.

The boys kept themselves plenty entertained with random things.

They'll pretty much do anything with Grandpa Phillips.

Riley went on his 1st hike as a Boy Scout & recieved his 1st Boy Scout injury.

He wasn't doing what he should have been so he pretty much deserved it.

The funniest part of November was coming to Grandma & Grandpa Phillips & finding a live turkey in their backyard. 

Their name was put in a drawing at their suppliers for selling a certain amount of product.  They thought it was going to be a dead turkey delivered to them for Thanksgiving dinner.

Not alive.

After the kids fell in love with it though there was no way he was going to be dinner.

Chase called him "gobble gobble" & loved to check on him often.

He ended up going to a good home with other turkeys after Thanksgiving.

Daxton helped Grandma Phillips make pumpkin pies the day before Thanksgiving.

Grandpa took 3 grandkids to the See's Candy store all by himself (it was quite an adventure).

The kids thought it was awesome.

Grandpa took a nap afterwards.

Here are the boys ready for the drive to Roseville for Thanksgiving with my family.

I still can't believe there's three of them.
