Hi and welcome to November! Exciting things on deck for me this month include welcoming our son into the world (!) and Thanksgiving. I am pumped.
I feel like we just celebrated our first married Thanksgiving, then our first Thanksgiving as a family, and now we’ll have our first Thanksgiving as a family of four in a couple of weeks, Lord Willing! Here’s what’s current in my life this month.
Hello and welcome to the first week of November! How was your weekend? Ours was busy and blessed. Here’s a rundown of what we were up to!
My mom came over! We indulged in my latest obsession of thrift shopping and also filmed a vlog. Sadie spent the night at my parents’ house.
Jimmy and I planned on driving golf balls at Top Golf, but it was booked so we went to Rural King (a farm supply store) to look at the chicks and rabbits 🙂
I was able to get Sadie this Christmas dress at the thrift store for $0.58. I can’t wait to see her wear it this holiday season!
Sadie spent the day with her cousin Caroline at my parents’ house and had such a fun time!
While Sadie was hanging out with her cousin, Jimmy and I went on a quick day trip to West Virginia and visited one of our favorite places, Cabela’s. It’s an outdoor recreation store that has an aquarium and all sorts of animal displays.
We also went out to lunch and browsed around a bookstore. It was really great to catch up with Jimmy and have uninterrupted conversations!
Jimmy and I agreed that we want to take Sadie to Cabela’s soon. We think she would really enjoy it. Last time she went she was only two months old!
In the evening, we met our church family at a local sports center for our church’s Halloween alternative.
Since we don’t celebrate Halloween, our church puts on an activity each year during the time trick-or-treating takes place and we all get together and have fun.
Yes, that is my dad pushing Sadie and Caroline in a stroller while rollerblading, haha! Love it.
We had such a wonderful time with everyone and I was reminded of just how much I enjoy rollerblading!
We went to church, caught up around the house (cooking, cleaning, gearing up for the week ahead, etc.), and went back to church in the evening.
The kids were given lollipops during the evening church service and they were very happy about that 🙂
