NOVEMBER 2017



Grandpa Bruce started having serious stomach pains on Halloween. He finally went to the ER and he had pancreatitis really bad. He got admitted and was on a liquid diet for a week. We went and visited him on his birthday and brought him stuff to cheer up his room. Before we got to the hospital we took the kids to House of Jump to play. They have been working hard on earning a trip there and they finally did it. They had so much fun. You would think that it wore them out, but they were so crazy at the hospital



Gus turned 7 years old! We celebrated all weekend long. Kyle and I took him on a date where we ate at the Pizza/Pasta Factory, then we took him to try on new coats at several stores and then to the DI. Friday he had a few friends over for a late night to play laser tag. Saturday we went to breakfast at my sisters coffee shop with the Ashcrofts for Mary Lu and Gus' Birthday, after that we checked traps at the cabin and went fishing with Grandma and Grandpa, and then Sunday we had all of the cousins come over for ice cream cake. He got a pellet gun which he loves a lot.



A sweet note from my Great Grandpa Stratton to my Great Grandma



Gus gave a presentation in 1st grade English. It was on a national symbol, so he chose the coyote (a Native American) symbol. He did so well



One of my friends found out that her husband was cheating on her, and leaving her. So as friends we all pitched in money and then a few of us went to Costco and got her some stuff. This is just one of the carts. It was fun just pulling tons of stuff off of the shelf for someone else.



Checking traps again. It's really weird that it hasn't snowed yet. Weird and scary. Kyle caught the biggest fish of the year on this trip



We bought this cute fox for the new baby. Then the next day we went to Linda's and she had bought this fox muslin for the baby as well along with the cute pom pom trim. I took it home right away and sewed it up.



On Wednesday's I help at Gus' class from 11-12 and then I take Oliver to school and help in his class from 12:30-1:45. My mom watches these crazy tiger faces while I do it. They usually get pizza, which makes them happy



Kyle had Jack while Gus, Oliver, and I were at our Primary Program practice. I guess he decided to run away on his trike. Kyle said he got kinda far.



Chad Holt stopped by one Sunday. The kids thought it was neat to have a cop in our house. Kyle likes Chad a lot.



Gus' Chinese class



Thanksgiving. We ate Lunchgiving at my moms and Dinnergiving at Kyle's moms. The boys played in that giant dirt pile at my moms. They were filthy, I had to take them home and bathe them.



Oliver and Jack pretending to be cows on our walk.



Oliver had a pre school assessment before Thanksgiving break. He is such a smarty and doing so well.



Rosie loves when Jack rides her around. It's pretty cute to watch



My brother Chance went for 2 weeks in August to be a part of a new Discovery Chanel show. His episode airs Tuesday December 12th and we are excited to watch it.

  1. Wow Em, way to get caught up. I love that all I have to do is text you about being behind and you get on it. :) Love your cute family, and you'd better do everything in your power to have that baby before we get there in January. That's an order!!
