November 08

November was a good month. We celebrated Matthew's First Birthday. The last time I had seen Jessica was probably 4-5 years ago. It was nice to see her and Mary. We were missing LaShon otherwise it was our old Sizzler team.

The boys got to wear their Halloween costumes again to the party which they liked. Ethan, once again, took his Hulk a little too seriously and pushed Shawn who fell in the mud. Those of you who know Shawn.....he hates (and I mean hates) being dirty. He was quite upset that his Superman outfit had mud on it. See our Shutterfly page for pictures. You'll see that Shawn was so upset that getting his face painted did not help.

Thanksgiving was nice and quite. The family spent it together. I was up early the next day for my traditional Black Friday shopping. I wasn't convincing enough for my sister to join me. By the time the boys had had their breakfast I was done.
