Our Girls: November 2009

The girls have had a lot of fun this fall. We found an Apple Orchard here in North Carolina up in the mountains. It was about hour and half drive. We only went once but we got our apple orchard fix for the year. We had parent teacher conference with Sydney teacher and she is doing great in school. She is above where she should be for kindergarten which is great. She is going on her first field trip a week from Monday. They are going to a petting farm for the day. She has already went to a birthday party for one of the kids in her class. Brooke is getting so big and is learning and saying a lot of new words. She would love to go to school with her sister.

Sydney was Princess Leia for Halloween and Brooke was going to be Elmo but she got sick with a fever and had to stay home. We did teach her how to say trick and treat and thank you which she did not get to do. Before we went treat and treating we went up to our clubhouse and we had dinner and snacks and did a Halloween parade with all the kids from the neighbor it was a lot of fun. After Sydney and I went trick and treating and Shawn stayed home with Brooke and passed out candy.

We are looking forward to coming up to Michigan for Thanksgiving. We can not want to see everybody and I know the girls are looking forward to it too.
