Thanksgiving

Joe's brother Jeff invited us to Thanksgiving so we made the trek down to TN.  It was nice that his brother Steven and sister Holly came with their kids.  Rachel and Lincoln loved playing with their cousins. We hardly saw them:)

The annual Danielson tradition of the cousins making apple turkeys.

We had fun going to "Incredible Pizza" (like Chucky Cheese's).  The kids liked the line dance party, even though they weren't following it very well.

I think they were distracted by the woman's cool costume.

On the rides.  I'm glad Joe was there to help because the kids were having fun wandering wherever they wanted to.  Hannah loved the racing games.

The feast!  It was delicious!  Thanks Jeff and Kristen for a fun Thanksgiving!

Graduation and Flat Rachel

Joe had his Lockheed FLDP (Financial Leadership Development Program) graduation in Orlando this weekend.  Rachel's class read a book about "Flat Stanley" that made himself flat and traveled all around the world(I'm sure there's more to that story).  Her teacher sent home a flat Rachel for us to take pictures with wherever we went.  We figured Joe's business trip would be the perfect place for Flat Rachel.  Joe did a good job remembering to take pictures.

Halloween

I tried to do a themed dinner of green bean witch's fingers and mummy hotdogs.  I don't think it would win any presentation awards, but A for effort.

The kids and I right before going trick or treating.  Rachel is Izzy from Jake and the Neverland Pirates and the rest are more recognizable.

 Joe stayed back to pass out candy and I took these three.  I think I need to stop telling them to say cheese because they just end up with their mouths wide open:)  They had a lot of fun.  Rachel really enjoyed having her friends go with her.  I had to drop off Hannah shortly after we started because Lincoln needed the stroller.
