Aunt Andrea's Thanksgiving visit

Aunt Andrea was able to fly up to spend Thanksgiving with us, and was able to arrive just in time for the first snow fall of the season. This is our back yard the day she flew in.

Andrea also started running, so she did a few miles with me (Tom) in temperatures ranging from 9 to 24 degrees Farenheit. This is Andrea and Candice going for a jog Friday morning in 9 degrees. She loved it!

We put up the Christmas tree the day after Thanksgiving. Lilly has found her new favorite place to hide. The last picture is Andrea with the kids before coming to church with us on Sunday.

Autumn Leaves

This summer Minnesota had a low rain summer, which caused alot of the leaves to turn color and fall off really quickly. In fact, they started turning color right before Halloween, then it got really windy and rainy for about a week, which blew all of the leaves of in one week. Candice had to go to the neighbors house down the street to take some pictures of the kids in the leaves this year.
