November

November started out with a weekend trip to Pymatuning State Park.  We stayed in cabin #6 with the Farrell's and Nate & Nicole.  It was a great cabin and an enjoyable weekend.

We made a trip to little Washington to visit with Aunt Peggy, Jacki and Jason/Heather to share memories of Aunt Connie and celebrate her life.  She was definitely taken from all of us too soon.  It was the first time we met Constance and all the hugs from Lily were very much enjoyed and needed.

We went to see Emma (& Ella as stage crew) in "You're a Good Man Charlie Brown."  Our drive through Kane was nasty with ice covered roads and we got stuck behind a few accidents.  The play was almost over by the time we got to Brookville.  We were happy to be able to stick around an extra night and see the next performance.

We celebrated Grant's birthday at our house on his actual birthday...

...and then with all the family on Thanksgiving.

Papa Jim came to our house and gave Grant his present, his first .22.  It was the one he had been shooting at Papa's house over the summer.

Gracie's still taking ice skating lessons and doing great!

This is a Daemen deer that I saw about everyday heading into campus this month.

We made it to Mallwitz's lanes.
