Merry Christmas

November was a busy month with hunting and Thanksgiving, Tiff and the girls here for almost 2 weeks, and Ashley home for a week...

Thanksgiving...the Pust's had us all over...they were brave...almost 30 of us

Taylor and Noah "helping" Sharon at the sink....

Early November, we went out for a drive along the country roads...Alex took the opportunity to sight in his gun

Almost more fun than shooting a deer, is shooting a porcupine :)



Tiff and the girls and I went to Richey one afternoon...

Shawna enjoyed holding Hannah...
Daryn & Kirk stopped by for a visit...



Gramma was in Arizona, but Grampa had fun with them all...


Back home....
Austin and the girls....

My little helper....

I love this picture :)

Future cowgirl?!

A spur of the moment trip to look at the "perfect" pickup
took us 15 hours from home to Illinois ...

We stayed 2 nights at Alex's cousin Mike's house, where I got to at least sit in his pretty car!

Alex got to actually ride in it~

We drove down to Chicago...

and walked 9 blocks to Wrigley Field....

I got my first taxi ride :)

~and he wasn't even a crazy driver!

...we visited Navy Pier

and ate at Bubba Gump w/ Mike and his friend Anne~

We did end up getting the "perfect" pickup....in Wisconsin!
~and then we headed North for another 7 hours to Grand Rapids...
