November Came and Went...

The good news is... we moved back into our house in early November.
The bad news is... it's been a crazy whirlwind of final touches, construction dust, and unpacking...plus our normal life... sooo the blog didn't get fully updated for the last month (as Rick likes to remind me regularly.)
So, let me catch you up on November.

We celebrated Rick's birthday with a trip to a fun BBQ place called Ferris Wheelers.
 

The kids talked us into staying an extra hour to wait for the ferris wheel to open at 8pm and what do you know- Grace wasn't tall enough to ride.  Yeah, that didn't go over so smoothly.  Poor baby.

I let the kids pick what they wanted to give Rick for his birthday and Palmer said he wanted to take Rick cowboy hat shopping.  Hmmm.  So, we went to a Texas tourist trap for the first time ever.
And then the hat inspired everyone to pitch a tent and sleep in the backyard.
The gorgeous weather lent itself to...

...some fun train time with cousins:
 

...Cub Scout hiking:
....and November boating with Pops:
Miss Grace is still loving dance, especially with her friends Ainsleigh and Blake.  She does dance shows for us all the time at home and takes her class very seriously every week.
 

Palmer made tickets to one of Grace's dance shows at home.
The parents had an open house at ballet one Friday.  I die over these videos.
Grace was adorable "skipping" until she thought that the parents were laughing AT her...
Rick and I dressed up for a baroque-themed Lakewood party and Rick got a taste of what it's like to wear tights.  All for the kids, of course.
Aunt Samantha hosted her first Thanksgiving this year in Fort Worth.  Despite everyone being under the weather at some point during the week, we had fun ice skating and enjoying the holiday.

Happy Thanksgiving from the Jordans.  House update photos to come soon.  We are so close to being done...
