Dollar Days at The Harbor December 3, 2011

We took Kari and Noah to Dollar Days at the Inner Harbor. We started out at CFA for breakfast, got Noah's haircut, rode the light rail, went to the Science Center and had a late lunch at Hard Rock Cafe. It was a beautiful day and we have a great time.

BSO Field Trip December 2, 2011

I got to chaperone Noah's 2nd grade class trip to the BSO. We heard a few pieces from the Nutcracker and saw a puppet show of Cinderella. It was a really great show.

Navy Women's Basketball Game November 28, 2011

Kari won free tickets to a Navy Women's basketball game from school. We rode the bus to the stadium and enjoyed a win over Air Force. It was a neat family activity.

Trimming the Tree 2011

We love being able to put up the tree on the weekend after Thanksgiving, so we can enjoy it for the whole month of December. This year, Kaysen was with us, but was very uninterested in hanging the ornaments. Rick and the kiddos did a great job!

Thanksgiving 2011

We spent Thanksgiving Day at the Pilkertons.  It was great to see the Lamarres and watch the men fry a turkey. The food was awesome and the company was even better.

Breakfast tradition - cinnamon and orange rolls 

The Saturday after Thanksgiving, we had dinner at our house and Kaysen came over for a bit. He really loved the "green stuff", but didn't enjoy trimming the tree very much.

Weigh Smart - November 21, 2011

Our family participated in a program with Kari called Weigh Smart. It combines exercises and education about nutrition and healthy eating to encourage changing activity levels and eating habits to have a healthy lifestyle. It is not a diet, but about making better choices for healthier living. Kari did great and we learned a lot as a family. Here are some pictures of a few friends and her workout instructors.
