Change in Weather

Yesterday, Jeremy, Lucky, Jr. Jr., and I went up to Big Springs for Jr. Jr. to collect some leaves for homework. 

The boys had so much fun looking at different types of leaves and throwing sticks and leaves into water whenever we crossed a bridge.  The boys and I even played Pooh Sticks a few times.  There was one spot where the water was nice and slow moving under a bridge.  That was a great spot for Pooh Sticks. 

I enjoyed going on a beautiful hike.  I love nature.  We turned around when we reached a meadow.  Jr. Jr. thought that was the greatest thing- to hike all the way to a meadow.  So cute.

 
It was a lovely day and lovely weather.
This morning we woke up to snow. 

There was a bit off and on all day, but luckily not enough to make driving to dance class scary.  Jeremy took the littlest boys with him to take Nichole to dance class while Jr. and I went to an awards night at the school.  Nichole won an award of excellence for a dragon she sewed.  That was the school project she had been working on on Reptile Awareness Day.  Jr. accepted the award for her- the certificate, the coupon, the M&Ms, and the trophy.  What a good brother.  He and I also got to bring her dragon home.  Congratulations, Nichole.  On to the next level of competition for this project.

Here's a better picture of her finished dragon.  I didn't have the best lighting tonight.

Oh, and I made homemade bread since November 17 is Homemade Bread Day.  I can't believe I almost forgot to mention that.
