Sleepovers

Still playing catch up before the end of the year. We had some sleep overs this year. We got to have Sammy stay with us for a week while his mom and dad went to Alaska. We introduced him to some fun peterson favorites like slurpees. It was fun and tiring at the same time. Reminded us how much work little ones are.

He loved the being outside on swing, sitting the four wheeler, and playing in the rocks.

Jake had a great time showing him all about golf. Once he sat behind the wheel he didn't leave. We got him to say yeehaw. It was awsome.

Tommy loves to read the kids book at bedtime.

Thanksgiving

I'm a little behind! Devo's highlight for the Thanksgiving holiday was pheasant hunting. Paul took he and Troy to his gun club and Devo is hooked. So hooked he went to Cabellas the same day and bought a shotgun. He can't wait to go shoot something again.

Even the kids were in on the action listening to all the stories. A little after Thanksgiving Jake told Devo " We're going to South America on our next vacation to shoot some Gahrials."(alligators that live there) He talks about it everyday actually. Emily and I are not invited.
Paul made up a Bolderdash game with Thanksgiving facts and gave us all team names. The Fashion Feathers were by far the most fun and creative. ( Go Lauren)

We bought my mom a puppy(which she picked out with out knowing it) We gave it to her for Thanksgiving while everyone was together. We are potty training it and hopefully it will be ready for mom to take home after Christmas. Since Dad's gone we hope Casper will keep her company during the lonely evening and nights.

Jill made us all aprons (I think as a hint to get in the kitchen and help). It was a fun day but we sure did miss Pops.
