Six in Smithville: November....

It's been awhile since I blogged last. Seems like since Halloween week life has been going a million miles a minute. I don't know if I have come up for air yet, but I have found a few minutes to share what's been going on this month!

At the end of October our Yellow Maple tree made it's full color to orange! It was so beautiful!

Last year I told myself I was going to take a picture of all it's colors as we moved through fall. That's exactly what I did.... It is so beautiful here at this time of year! We have had a lot of fun playing in the leaves and exploring the woods while the weather has been good!

The weekend after Halloween we celebrated a big event! My baby sis turned 21!!!!! It's so hard to believe that she is now an official adult! Me being 10 years old than her, can remember when we celebrated my 21st birthday and I said to her "Just think Lindz, when you turn 21 I will be turning 31!"

At the time it seem like so far away.... I can't believe it's already here. We had a lot of fun celebrating her birthday downtown with mom and dad at the Spaghetti Factory! The kids were thrilled when we came home to open presents and ate cake with Aunt Lin Lin!!!! Aunt Tiff Tiff also came in town so it made the weekend extra special for us all!

This past weekend was nothing less than chaos, which we love! We had Cantrell and Janiah come to play this weekend! Emma and Janiah had a blast playing outside and inside with the baby dolls and such! Isaac, Cantrell, and Mary B. took charge of the trampoline during the day and I found them passing the DS around when they should be sleeping at night! Saturday we managed to have the team and recruits over for lunch and then off to a fall bonfire that night with friends!

All in all they loved having their "cousins" come to visit and Emma was very disappointed when she knew Janiah wouldn't be sleeping next to her last night!

Yesterday LeAllision gave us tickets to the Titan's game! We took Isaac and Mary B. with us! To my disappointment I forgot my camera! That was okay though, I spent most of my time in search for CHOCOLATE Dipping Dots! That was all the kids wanted and we searched the whole stadium! That is a big stadium! Needless to say we never found them, but we did manage to steal a hug and kiss from Nana and Pappaw who were also at the game!

Finally we ate a hamburger at Mom and Dad's last night. We then scooted out the door in time to get kids

in bed by 7:45!!! Woo Hooo!!!! They were all passed out!

And now you are officially updated on our November!!!
