Thanksgiving Extravaganza!

We had a lovely Thanksgiving holiday. We had two dinners Thursday, went to the Carolina Craftsmen's Christmas Classic at the coliseum on Friday, and ate more food on Saturday.
Thursday we had lunch at my mom's house with Aunt Becky. I coaxed everyone into taking some pics. I think they turned out great!














We then proceeded to Adam's parents' house to eat some more. Mark, Amy and the boys were there with their three little puppies. As you can see, I didn't get too many family pics.


Adam drew a "tattoo" on Jonathan's back for our Christmas music video (coming soon!), and of course Gavin and Colby wanted tattoos, too!


Saturday was our annual Daniels' Family Reunion (of sorts.) We had a great turn out this year.

Bryce Kelly Lewis

I'm a new aunt! Sabrina gave birth to Bryce Kelly Lewis on Tuesday, November 20. The little booger was six weeks early! He weighed in at 4 pounds 10 ounces and was almost 17 inches long. He's such a little guy, but he's doing very well. He has to stay in the ICU until he gains some weight, and then it's off to home sweet home. He has all sorts of IVs in him, poor fella. I haven't met him yet, but Adam and I can't wait to do so!

Congratulations to the new parents, Jason and Sabrina!

Chili Cookoff and Pinewood Derby

Last Friday, Nov. 9, our ward had a chili cookoff and pinewood derby race. Adam participated in both. The pinewood derby had no rules. For those of you who are familiar with pinewood derbies, no rules sounds like a bunch of fun! Adam immediately started coming up with all sorts of ideas. He decided to make the wheels out of pizza cutters and weigh it down with coins - probably 3 pounds worth. The first version didn't turn out too well (see picture below), but he eventually made it work. We were afraid it wasn't going to finish at all because of its weight. Adam tried it out when we got to church, and it worked great! It ended up winning a few times, but it lost twice. Since it was double-elimination, he was out. He won the chili cookoff again, though. Woohoo!

The ward activity was a little chaotic, but it was a lot of fun. I suppose it sort of makes up for the lack of a Trunk-or-Treat.



Version 1: way too tall and awkward.

Version 2

Here's one of Adam's winning races. A kid kept calling Adam's car "Cookie Cutter!"

Good job!

There was this cute setup on the stage for family photos. Great idea!

Oh Kitty Cat
