We had the week off of school for Thanksgiving break. Casey had practice for a few days.On Monday we put up the tree, put up our new tree downstairs, and put up lights on the tree out front of the house. Tuesday we got our early Christmas present of a new Washer and Dryer! (We'd "fixed" our dryer twice without much success and our washer wouldn't work on most of the modes it was put on so it was long overdue.)
Thanksgiving morning we went out to Rupert so Kendal and Pete could run the Turkey Trot with Vanessa and their kids. It was a nice sunny morning which made for a decent run for the kids. Afterwards we drove the "back roads route" to Raft River. Along the way we stopped and did a bunch of Geocache sites! We had a wonderful afternoon at Kenny and Cheryl's. We ate a great dinner, and played games together the rest of the day. We stayed overnight and came home the next day getting in a bit of Black Friday Shopping.

Dec. 1st we had our annual Christmas PJ night. I love that we do this at the beginning of the month so the kids can enjoy them all month long!
I got a new toy at work that re-bonds books back together. I've been geeking out about this machine and am so happy to have it in the library to help mend books better and quicker than ever!
I had a staff party on the 5th with the middle school staff. Casey was stuck at games that night and couldn't come. It was food, an ornament exchange, and a lot of funny stories from people. We're lucky to work where we do and with the people we do.
Alice had a basketball game on the 6th. Her team pulled out a win despite their main scorer having a broken arm! Alice played great and has been really getting the hang of defense / the game towards the end of her season.
We ran into the Spear family at the Turkey Trot and scheduled a dinner and game night for the seventh. It was great catching up with each other and letting our kids get reacquainted. We had a fun night of games as well!
