One Haircut and A Yummy Dinner!

I took Nathan to get a haircut today. He did amazingly great! He even sat patiently and waited for thirty minutes, which is no small feat for him! Of course, he always gets a sucker during his haircut if he is good. Having a sticky  four year old beats holding a kicking and screaming four year old. I could do that when he was two or three years old but it gets harder every year. And, somehow, having a sucker makes all the difference! We always get his hair scissor cut as short as it will go so we don't have to go back for a while.

Here is are before and after photo's:

(Before.. the pictures were taken from my phone so they are a little blurry)

(After... He always has a cow lick on one side that we can't get rid of :)

And he actually let me take his picture without crying!


And then............ Hannah made this for supper:


All in all a GREAT day!!

November

Okay, since I have blogged since November 5th, I will post about everything that happened in November. Well, almost everything. I'm sure you don't want to hear about what I had for lunch everyday :)

I got my wisdom teeth taken out. I have a picture but I am NOT going to post it ;)

Nathan got very sick with the stomach bug the weekend before Thanksgiving and, therefore, I did too. Thankfully I was better by Thanksgiving, which was spent at the Ledbetter house.

Thursday night/Friday morning after Thankgiving dinner and a few card games, Alyson, Hannah, Josey, and I went to Old Navy for black Friday. Josey and I had never been before and it was quite an experience!

Then Friday morning (about 5 hours after going black Friday shopping), Hannah, Judah, my mom, and I went to Camden, AL to see my moms side of the family. Here is a picture of me and my great uncle who, in his 80s, still runs a farm with the help of his wife, my granny's sister:


And here are pictures of my Grann Ann (great aunt) and Granny. We had to sneak them because neither one likes have their picture taken:




The Saturday after Thanksgiving, we went to the Christmas tree farm with the Ledbetters, Hicks, and McConnells. It was tons of fun! And I would post a picture except that Alyson took the pictures and we don't have them yet. It was quite funny trying to get a picture of all of us (kids included). It went something like this "Addie Beth, get your thumb out your mouth". "Will, you can cry after the photo, just smile.... okay, don't smile. Just look at the camera" "Everyone squeeze in tighter". "Anna take you sunglasses off". "Gabe, smile just ONE time and then we can be done". Very funny!

Here is a picture of our Christmas tree.... leaning and not in too good of shape at the time :)


I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving and November!



Give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.
