I'm not sure if this is a Dolley or a Tvedt thing, but I had to have this damn pig. My Mom has a croaking frog at her house, whether or not she wants to admit it. Come to think of it we've always had some sort of moving stuffed Christmas toy, even as a kid. This one oinks out jingle bells while walking along and squeals when you pull it's tail. At least I waited until it was about half price. Not sure I should have admitted I bought it, but there it is.
Evan and Dad had a sushi night when Amanda was at a friend's house .
They like playing with all of the gross fish parts. This was a crab claw that Evan was moving.
Chris talked the kids into raking the Mulberry tree leaves for $5. They lasted about 10 minutes. Chris ended up raking about 300 pounds of leaves. The next day there was about the same amount of leaves on the ground again. He won't buy a leaf blower and likes to rake them. Whatever. I wonder how many years I'll have to ask him if he's ready for a blower.
The kids tried out their new aprons we made. Amanda is measuring flour for bread.
Is this the cutest darned coat ever or what? Of course she can't wear it to school so I'm not sure of it's practicality or how many times she'll wear it before she outgrows it. I couldn't resist. It was going to be part of her Thanksgiving outfit but since it was probably about 68 degrees that afternoon it was a little warm for it. We've finally been having some cooler weather this week so maybe she'll get to use it soon!

Speaking of annoying Christmas decorations... Cole found the Disney singing decoration you bought me (before kids) and I had to listen the darn thing all afternoon (yesterday) before I could finally hide it when they weren't looking! The gift that keeps on giving!
I guess it's a sickness I have! I got that for you before we all had kids! Ha!
