November 2021 - Virginia and Stuff

The girls propped the slide from the playset onto the wall between our house and Cikaneks'. It seemed very unsafe but turned out to be pretty stable, and no one has been injured.  

Wrenzy started writing a song on the piano. She wrote the names of the notes in her notebook.


I went to Virginia to help Courtney with baby Weston. I think I mostly cooked and held Weston. I took almost no photos. There was a little outside play with Anson and Eleanor, and there was a walk. I can't get enough of fall foliage. 









Baby Wes. 


I received some nice "welcome home" signs from the littles when I returned.



I don't remember heading to Big Bear right after getting home, but I have a video of Ever doing some cardboard sliding that weekend.


Tiny was always covered in dirt when I picked her up from school. During recess she poured dirt and sand on herself. I think she had a friend playing with her, but I can't imagine anyone else looked like this at pickup: 


Wrenzy continued receiving accolades from her teacher. 



As of November, my first grader had "finished all of the [reading] levels." 


Tiny had a cute cocoon sleeping setup. 


We got COVID shots (icing seemed to help the terror) and Baskin Robbins.



Back to Big Bear for the last weekend before we opened for rent - just in time for Thanksgiving week. Derrick Karner came up and got very little sleep as he helped with the final push. 


Poor Big Blue, loaded to the brim with trash.


Meanwhile, the girls entertained themselves by climbing onto the low roof by the driveway and in through the loft window.


The girls climbed a chair rack on a Sunday afternoon. Always climbing. 


Jim and Ever got tired while watching a show with Grandpa after Sunday dinner. 


Meagan Bunnell hosted their annual charity bake sale. We baked about three things and helped sell.
