November 2018

We started November with a trip to Home Depot for their Kids' Workshops. They are free, once a month, and kids get to make a craft to take home with them. W is in love with using tools and helping dad fix things. He got an apron with his name on it and a pin with what he created that day. Each time he goes, he gets a pin to add to his apron. There was another kiddo there with 20 or so pins! At this workshop, he made a helicopter in honor of upcoming Veterans' Day.


We got our first snowfall of the fall/winter this month. W was in Heaven! He wanted his big coat and snow boots on immediately. It wasn't a lot of snow, but he loved stomping on the snow-laden grass.

Another big event this month was a car accident for me. I was driving straight across a packed intersection when another car came from my passenger side and hit me. There wasn't time for either of us to move or get out of the way. The damage was centrally located at W's car door. He didn't get upset, but just asked, "Why we not moving anymore, mama?" We were both fine except for a bruise on my knee. Insurance totaled my car so we are saving up/shopping around for another one in the coming months. I had that Honda from brand new in 2008 for 10 years & didn't even break 100,000 miles in it!


We had our wonderful California family visit for Thanksgiving! Megan and the girls came in for the whole week & Rob was able to join in for the second half of the week. Mila, Nellie, & William enjoyed hours and hours of cousin time. He's in love with impressing Mila and loved causing mischief with Nellie. I loved how much time they had together this visit!
