November felt like it was a long time ago. So much has happened since November 1st. If it wasn't for my phone storing all the pictures I snapped throughout the month, I would have a really hard time jotting my memory. Ronin is now a pro walker by this point. He is thinning out. Too much running around the house.
The first part of our November was taking the family into Seattle for some Philly Cheese Steaks at Tat's. According to Dan who has eaten here a few times, Tats is the closest comparison to Philly Cheese Steaks from philly.
I bought a membership with the Argosy cruise ship line a while back and we finally got around to aboarding the Argosy cruise line with the family. The membership is for a year. We will be taking a few family members on this ship when they visit
We found a place that has such yummy gelato. Who cares that it's cold outside. PCC has the best gelato around.
Stevens in Walla Walla
Relationships are a two way ordeal. The Frasers have visited us numerous of times and it was our turn to visit them. Walla Walla is a very small town that consists of a college and many many vineyards. If you don't drink wine or attend college, there is nothing there for you. But lucky us our besties are there. We love visiting them. They make us feel so welcome and we are very much ourselves there. My friend JoLynn knows how much her husband loves Pho, a Vietnamese noodle soup. But her attempt to make them was not very successful due to not having the ingredients available in her little town. So when I came I brought with me the ingredients and then bought some fresh meat there and got to work. We had a wonderful time eating Pho and walking around their neighborhood for some incredibly beautiful scenery. We loved our weekend with the Frasers and our kids loved their time with friends as well.
November is a time to reflect on the things we are grateful for. We had some cold days and some of our plants died so it was time to trim the plants and re mulch. I attempted a few times but with a baby it made it hard to get everything all done in 1-2 days. I decided it was best if we hire someone to finish the yard. I felt very grateful for his hard work while my girls and I were inside crafting in our nice comfy pj's
I started missing theaters a lot so I decided to start volunteering again.
Thanksgiving
Thanksgiving this year was at Dan's cousins Dave's house. Everyone brought some food and the kids had a blast. We all sat in the living room and cheered on the Seahawks for making it to the playoffs again. Go HAWKS!
I converted another friend to liking Pho. Now she is addicted!
I got Christmas cards sent out early this year! That felt so good. Onto Christmas shopping on Amazon for the rest of November
