We had SUCH a busy November!
I am one of McKenna's room Mom's and so I had to help put together things for the schools big fundraiser. We did a baking theme basket and ended up having enough stuff to add 3 different things to the auction! I mainly focused on class cookbook. Each student brought in their favorite recipe and then illustrated a picture of it and I also took pictures of all the kids in aprons etc. It was a lot of work, but ended up being totally worth it!
The fundraiser is called "Christmas on the Hill." It was SO cute. Chris was working that night so we were just going to go over for a minute and see how it all was put together and then leave. I wasn't planning on spending any money... well... we I ended up being one of the last people to leave and spending $130... WHOOPS!!!
McKenna singing carols with the other kids... she was so nervous to go up there. This whole nervous thing is so NOT like her... it's been interesting.
Santa and Mrs. Claus...
The last minute before time was up for the bidding all the dads were huddled around the cookbook and apron that we made to get it... I was shocked!!! They both went for over almost $130... plus our big basket. We were able to raise hundreds of dollars for the school!
Here's what I ended up coming home with... a gift card tree haha! All to places I would have spent money at anyways so I figured the money might as well go to the school!!!
Later in November we went to see Santa at Bass Pro Shop! They do such a great job there!
THANKSGIVING!
We hosted dinner at our home this year and had over the Hawkes fam.
As you can see Reags REALLY enjoyed her pie!!! It was lots of fun to host and make a lot of the dinner! I'm so grateful for my family and a best friend to be with forever, Chris! After dinner I of course shopped and got the deal finding out of my system! Lots of fun!
We had a wonderful November full of reasons to be thankful to our loving Heavenly Father!!! He is the reason for all of our happiness!!!
