Blake had his first piano recital on Saturday. Just remember he's had only 7 lessons so far! He performed two short songs: 'Swinging Monkeys' and 'Elevators and Escalators.' He had no fear of performing at all and did an excellent job. We are very proud of him. I will post a picture of him later, so you can see how little he looked next to all the other players. But listen to him perform below.
Being the dooms-dayers that they are, the media was predicting a bad fall for colors. But the colors were bright and vibrant afterall. Above is the crimson maple in our front yard, and I think it is the prettiest it has ever been. Jennie, we used our "foliage" setting on our camera to shoot this one! We also raked some leaves and of course jumped in them in the backyard. Here are the boys hard at work and jumping and having fun. Click on the photos to see more.
Drew's class at the YMCA gave their Thanksgiving performance on Thursday. They sang a few songs, and we had Thanksgiving dinner. Here's a picture of him in his hat he made. Click on the photo below to see more pictures from the event.
Early this year, Drew mentioned that he thought KFC had the best fried chicken. Even his brother who does not eat fried chicken knew KFC did not have the best fried chicken. We decided he needed to get out more. So the quest for the best fried chicken started in 2016.
