Five on Friday

1) Our November has been jam-packed with activities which helps to explain our lack of posting. Two days after our Wisconsin visitors left, Jonathan had a business trip to Indiana so we all went along and used it as an excuse to visit our dear friends, The Meyers. We were there for four days total-what a change from our usual less-than-24 hours-visit! They were gracious hosts, as always. Although I do admit I'm tired of being asked to "cook more like Aunt Ruth".

2) The girls favorite "recipes" of Aunt Ruth? Lunch Roll-Ups. Take one piece of lunch meat and once piece of sliced cheese. Roll up together. Serve. (Why do I bother baking?)

3) While we were there, Mali missed two days of pre-school but was delighted to visit her friend Timmy's class for a day. What fun!

4) We came home to Grand Rapids for about 48 hours and then turned around to spend the day in Michigan. My mom and I went shopping with Kara and another bridesmaid for dresses--no pictures of that, we'll save those for the big day!

5) Jonathan kept the girls busy during that day with the help of Grandma Deni, Ken, Aunt Amber, Uncle Banish, and Grandpa Gregg. As Mali said "Grandma Deni is in charge of carving pumpkins!" so that's what they did! No arguing with her on that one.
