For my side of the family November means ONE thing... DEER HUNTING! We headed to my grandparents' house last Sunday for a big family meal. The kids and I spent just the day there. Russell was busy hanging with the men preparing for the opening day of deer hunting. He checked out all the blinds and practiced shooting with his cross bow. Sloane spent the day playing and chatting with the women of the family. She spent time describing to Kelly her ideas of a perfect flower girl dress and then insisted that Katie and Kelly sit on either side of her for dinner. Russell on the other hand, insisted on sitting with the men while eating and watching football! This week we enjoyed a quick visit with my parents and then today we headed downtown Royal Oak for the annual holiday parade. The kids loved the music, dancers, dressed-up dogs, and of course SANTA CLAUS! We are looking forward to a quiet Thanksgiving filled with lots of time for rest and relaxation!!!

He is typically Papa's little shadow!

Both kids loved petting Katie and Travis' new puppies!

Russell with his buddy Antonio. Is Santa on his way?

Santa lead the crowd in a contest to see which side of the street could say the loudest "HO, HO, HO!"

Sloane and Alejandro found front row seats.
