Thanksgiving and some.

 A tree I made for work, our Thanksgiving tree.
Supper proud of Jaylee - how far she has come with her writing in just a few short weeks.
We also got a stroopwafle machine and have been making these - hopefully I can get up and running to sell at the market or something like that.
Also at work, the kids having a blast playing in the leaves.

 We went back to Maryland for Thanksgiving.
We went for a walk and enjoyed the great weather. The kiddos had fun playing on the rocks.

 Thanksgiving dinner.

We have a new member in the family - Boots. He was a stray kitten outside that adopted us right  when the weather got cold - there was no saying no. But that is fine with us. It took a while for Herb to accept him. Going away for a few days had us worried but we came back and they were pals.

Boots has actually trained Herb to be more of a lap cat - bonus!
