CCP Kid's Party

 The Sunday after Thanksgiving the Country Club has the Kid's Christmas Party.  I'm shocked we got a smile out of Evelyn since she is still afraid of Santa.

Carter's first Packer game!

 Uncle Brett got tickets for the Thanksgiving game this year.  Not only was it Carter's first game, it was also the game they retired Favre's jersey at half time (or something like that).
 Carter was so excited and felt big time to be one of the guys.  I just wish the weather would have cooperated.
 Carter still had a blast.  He told Chuck, "This is way better than watching it on TV!"  He already can't wait for his next game.
The girls and I stayed warm and dry and watched the game with Great Grandma.

Mother/Daughter Tea

 The weekend before Thanksgiving the girls and I went to the Festival of Trees Mother/Daughter Tea.  It was a Whoville themed tea.  The girls started the afternoon out with Cindy Lu makeovers.  Evelyn was being really shy and had to sit on my lap to get anything done to her hair.
Audrey never hesitates when there's an opportunity for a make over.
 My 2 Cindy Lou Whos
 We went with Evelyn's friend Matilda who also got her hair done.  They liked this peacock tree the best.
The girls had to get their picture in front of the Packer tree.  They wanted me to bid on it but it was already sold.
The tea was cute.  We were served sandwiches, scones and fruit.  There was coffee and hot cider for the "tea."
After lunch they had different activities.  They made Grinch ornaments.
 They had to complete a scavenger hunt that made us search all the trees on display.
There was a Sweet Cece's bar set up for dessert
 They took a group picture of all the girls that got their hair done.
 They also took mother/daughter pictures.
They ended the event with a dance performance and a raffle.  It was a really cute event.

 The weekend before Thanksgiving brought our first snow fall.
I was not ready for it but the kids were excited to play in it.
