Great Wolf Lodge

Devin and I decided to take a short family trip with our little ones last week.  We picked them up from school and headed to Great Wolf Lodge.  It was a surprise for Anna Claire and Charlie.  🙂 Here are just a few of the pictures from our trip!sign

Thankful

We had a wonderful thanksgiving.  That morning Anna Claire helped me in the kitchen. 🙂  Charlie actually beat Devin in a game on the iPad, so here’s a picture of Devin trying to redeem himself and beat his four year old son. 🙂  Then we headed to thanksgiving lunch at my parents’ house.  The kids watched the Macy’s parade while we got everything ready.  We had a great time!photo 1 (2)photo 2 (2)photo 3 (2)photo 4 (2)

Earlier that week we had a Thanksgiving playdate with some friends where we made cornucopias for snack and the kiddos played and played.  photo 1

We also went with our friends Maddie and Mrs. Kimberly to see the new Disney movie “Frozen.”  It was SO good!photo 5

The kids had a thanksgiving program and lunch at school.  They read the story “Stone Soup” and made their own. 🙂  They did a great job making the soup and singing!photo 3photo 4pilgrims
