Thanksgiving 2014

 She sure loves this little guy.

 I went ahead and gave in and let them put up the tree before Thanksgiving, and it was called the "Thanksgiving Tree" - Following in their Nana Mathews shoes.

 Jade finally goes on stage! (This is huge as anyone who witnessed the Primary program can attest).  She and Troy acted in "Stone Soup" at the treehouse museum with Grandma and Grandpa Beesley there.

 I made a turkey! This is also huge, for me. 

 The kids even made name-place settings.

 They sure love each other.

 Troy truly is a genius.  He thought up the design to the top of this - I was seriously amazed.

Week 12 - Choose you this day

 THE BEST building blocks

 We spent FIVE AND A HALF HOURS at the Treehouse museum one peaceful weekday, and discovered all sorts of things, such as this giant floor puzzle.

 Now every time we go, he hunts down this horse and carries it around the whole time...

 Good Fall fresh air

 Love this pic!

 Happy boy

 CUTE

 And for direct comparison.  Yeah, they are basically the same boy.

 Great discussion on TRUTH, and Abinadi teaching King Noah and his priests.  What he sacrificed in order to share truth - Abinadi is one of my heroes.

 Painting - I painted the picture in foreground.  Lead by example, right?

 hmmm, not sure who took this picture...

 Just let them play...and genius will surface.

 Sitting by each other on the couch.  Yes, I still like him. A lot.
