with Sean Mendez…

Our family was invited to a friends Ugly Christmas sweater party tonight.

So. Much. Fun.

Andrew’s dad’s… Andrew’s very diligent about visiting his dad every holiday and on his memorial day.

Shane’s making garlic mashed potatoes and Chloe’s making an apple pie with Andrew. Our thanksgiving tradition.

Chloe had to ice her ankle and elevate it but she still managed to bake! For the rest of the day, she was ensconced in the green couch with a book and rested.

My mother-in-law came early and she got roped into helping out with the pie. I think she felt bad watching how slowly (and unsteady) Andrew was peeling the apples…

@starbucks… Chloe’s favorite

Kids are busy after school with mathnasium, Taekwando, piano, guitar, basketball, girls scout, PT, and sometimes, routine doctor’s appts, and dentist/orthdontist… Kids needed this special treat, happy hour today to fuel through the rest of the day. You guys are awesome kids!

Shane’s team made it to semi-finals but lost after going overtime and penalty kicks. What an exciting game!!! GREAT JOBS you guys!!! Fought very hard in this freezing cold weather. You know it’s cold when Andrew refuses to come out of his car and watch the game, while his good mom stood outside the entire time. Just sayin…

Shane played for Silverback this fall which is coming to an end as the town travel season kicks in…
