Welp. Two things greatly monopolized my time and November came and went without a single post. So, here's the November News catch-up:
Laynie making funny faces into Mommy's phone camera.
I gave Gavin an art set and showed him how to make an owl. He then made his very own owl along with multiple other art drawings. His fine motor skills are improving and he's starting to really like to draw.
Rub-a-dub-dub!
Met up with 2 of my Canadian Cousins for lunch at The Olive Garden. Mom, Aunt Dixie, Carly's hubby and kids, and Matt and kids were also there.
Afterward, we went to Carly's house on BYU campus and played games outside while the kids played on a playground.
Laynie has been drinking milk from a bowl these days. Did I ever mention that she reminds me of a little kitten? Drinking from a bowl only confirmed this.
Had dinner with my lovely Primary Presidency ladies. Karlene got a stake calling which dissolved our presidency, so this was our last hurrah at Spanky's Subs.
Met up with Chelsea and kids at Discovery Gateway. Laynie LOVED the water center. And by love I mean she was drenched from belly to toes. Had to run out to the car to get her an extra set of clothes.
We had Thanksgiving in Gunnison. Just went down for the day. Tyler took Carly, Thomas, Matt and me on a wild ride in his off-roading 5 passenger 4-wheeler. I may have screamed the entire time. Matt went shooting with the boys and I stayed and chatted with the girls. Fun times.
Now.. the two things that occupied my time for the last month and a half? 1. Sinus Infection (of course) and 2. I agreed to illustrate a children's book in 1 month's time. My friend, Julie Christensen, wrote a darling book for her grandchildren. She's having it printed in book form and everything. I drew the illustrations for it, and we feel it turned out darling! We are waiting for it to get printed right now and can't wait to see it.
