Jeff and the kids did a lot of leaf raking the past few weeks. The leaf-sucking truck came by every few days and when it did the kids raced for the window. This is the spot where they stand to watch the trash truck and the recycling truck and where they wave to and blow kisses to our neighbor, Roz as she leaves for work. Guess who picked out Kolbe's clashing ensemble?!?After a wonderful Thanksgiving at my Aunt Cathy's, we headed to Branson for the weekend. Silver Dollar City was beautiful with all of the lights and decorations. Kolbe went on his first roller coaster ride. Jeff took him, thank goodness. Later in the evening Jeff took Libby on the flying hotair balloon ride. I stayed safely on the ground. The Christmas tree was spectacular and both kids enjoyed dancing to the Christmas Carols. We couldn't have asked for nicer weather, we had a great time together!
On the way back to the hotel Grandma was buckling Kolbe's carseat and having a bit of trouble, he chimed, "You old people have a hard time doing this, don't you?!?" Luckily Grandma is not easily offended! :)
