Thanksgiving

Grandpa and Grandma Carlson came for Thanksgiving weekend. We got more work done in the basement, pictures to come on another post, and Ethan had fun with all the extra attention.

Week with Grandpa and Grandma

Mommy and Ethan spent a week in Murdo visiting Grandpa and Grandma while Daddy worked hard at the new plant, we missed you Daddy. Ethan loved being with Grandpa and Grandma. He also enjoyed time outside seeing the puppy dogs and throwing sticks for them to fetch. We had fun - thank you Grandpa and Grandma!

Playing tractors with Grandpa.
Sharing a drink of water with Nana. Ethan loved the straw and Nana's big water cup.

Helping Nana make pizza. Ethan loved to be in the kitchen helping Nana whenever she was cooking.

Carving pumpkins

We had fun carving pumpkins as a family. Ethan wasn't too sure about getting his hands inside the pumpkin to dig out the seeds but he did have fun watching and helping in his own way. He even got to help Daddy with the sharp knife!

A fun weekend

We spent the weekend in Rochester with Dave's folks. It was a bit chilly but we still enjoyed time outside.

Ethan and the leaf pile. We don't have trees at home so it was fun to play in the leaves at Grandpa and Grandma's house.

Catch Grandpa!

Weekend

Our little man likes to read! I was downstairs doing laundry on Friday and came up to a quiet house, not a good thing with a little one. This is what I found...

We spent the weekend in Murdo hunting. Here is the crew (Jane, Andy, Josh, Dave and Heath) and their limit of birds. There were so many it only took them a little over an hour and they had their limit for the day.
