November

With the weather getting colder, we had more time indoors this month. We had a castle building day.

 

Chesney memorized the 46 books of the Old Testament and recited them during mass.

And then she received a new bible. So proud of this girl!

Crazy Crew.

All the boys.

Chesney got a new costume for her Jailhouse Rock dance this year.

One of the first snowfalls of the year.

Painting some decorations for our at home Thanksgiving.

I had helpers to make French Silk and Lemon Meringue pie.

After we celebrated Thanksgiving, we moved right into making Christmas cookies.

We had virtual schooling for a week after Thanksgiving.  Mackston was working on lining up his letters.

And this is his sight word wall, next to his bed.

Hockey Time

 November was the start of hockey games. Like everything, hockey was different this year. For practice, one parent can take their child in, help them put on skates and then had to leave the rink.  They came back at the end of practice to help remove skates and leave.  Games were live on YouTube at first with no spectators but after a few weeks, 2 spectators per family were allowed. Thankfully, Daddy has coached both Brecken and Mackston's teams which means a big commitment but also that the boy's always have a parent with them.

I'm so glad that hockey is back. I just love watching these boys on the ice.
