November

We had an epic friend birthday party for Emma - 15 kids!!  It felt like a lot for me - glad its done now - but it turned out well.

And had a special b-day lunch at Olive Garden - Emma picked that restaurant because she loves the breadsticks

Emma's fall soccer season finished up

we got rid of the jack-o-lanterns


Emma made mini pumpkin pies at activity girls

Emma also helped me prep a lot of food for Thanksgiving

Getting the table ready!  We hosted Scott's side of our extended family this year - I think it went well, although I wish our living room was a little bigger when we have lots of people over.

More seating on the patio - we have a heat lamp out there that we used

All the cousins were there!  It was a lot of fun.



Hooray for cousins

The next day we got together with some of my side of the extended family to celebrate our Keeler nephews Gideon (blowing out candles) and Adam (blue/aqua shirt next to little table) and their birthdays.

And we got to celebrate Ben (a Guptill nephew) and his birthday with swimming, Chick-Fil-A and cupcakes.  It was so fun seeing everyone!!

A few weeks later Emma was baptized
We had wanted to do it over the Thanksgiving holiday weekend so everyone could be there but our stake leadership didn't want us to do that




Some family got to come and it was nice
Matthew and our youngest Guptill nephew, Clark are best buddies!!

And Emma with cousin Norah

It was a great day!
