Hola!
Happy Thanksgiving weekend! Lots of activity makes the clock run even faster, it seems. We have had some fun with school activities, and friends we haven't seen in a little while. Here are some highlights (oh--and a low point, too) of the past 2 weeks.
FAREWELL to a PET FRIEND. Kara has had her hamster, Karamel, since last Christmas. Usually hamsters live around 2 years. Strange as it seems, it is not UNcommon
for a hamster to develop cancer. This happened to Karamel. She had a tumor under her chin, and then it only took about a week for her to slow down and stop. She passed away last Monday. Here is a farewell photo:

Here is a farewell photo:TURKEY TANGO. Kara was picked (literally: ALL the girls wanted to do this dance, so they drew names from a hat!) to do the Turkey Tango during the 5th grade song & dance performance on the day before Thank
sgiving. Very cute! It was a song about this Turkey who learned the tango to get out of being cooked for Thanksgiving dinner. About 10 girls and 10 boys did the tango during the song.

Fruit pies, pumpkin pies, lemon pies, chocolate pies! Our friends have an annual "Pie Night" the Wednesday before Thanksgiving, so people can eat the best stuff (pies) before they 
gorge themselves Thursday on the rest of the food. Then they had to cancel at the last minute, so we offered to have it at our house instead. It was fun to socialize and EAT!

t 11;30 p.m. last night, because the moon was so beautiful. They took about 20 photos, between clouds and adjusting shutter speed and aperture, and came up with a few really neat ones.

GRANDMA. This week I get to go visit my Grandma. She is about 12 day
s shy of her ONE HUNDREDTH BIRTHDAY! Is that so cool!!!!!!!!! They'll invite some people over on her actual birthday (December 10), but I will fly out a little early (Friday) so I can have some time to visit with her. Here is a photo of her in Belize a couple of years ago...

Another interesting post Kari. Wow, who has the energy to have a pie night the day before Thanksgiving? You and not me! After having the kids home, my father , and two cousins, I could not even fathom having that :0
Cool moon photos and perfect for a header picture.
Have a great time with your grandma.
