Fall Champs Swim Meet
Spent the WHOLE weekend at the Fall Champs swim meet. Maddy and Regan dropped time in most events. Hard to do after having a week off of practice for Thanksgiving break. Regan even qualified for Gulf Champs next weekend in the 50 Breast. So I guess we make the 1 hour drive, probably before dawn, for a 30 minute warm up and then a 30 second swim. Gotta love it....

Thanksgiving Weekend
We had a busy Thanksgiving weekend! Grandma Gerrie and Papa came to visit. Maddy won't stand up straight in the picture because she doesn't want it known that she's taller than Grandma Gerrie now. She's grown another 1 1/2 inches in the last 3 months.
Then we headed to San Marcos for Thanksgiving Day. We had our traditional hayride, which Bear got to enjoy with us. It was freezing cold that night! Much different from the 80 degrees earlier in the day!
We topped off the weekend with a marshmellow roast by the new treehouse. The kids dug out a firepit and even decorated the treehouse with Christmas lights. Don't know if you can really make them out in the background, but Dad finally got to use some of that pallet of spindles he bought years ago for $50 (because, you know, they might come in handy some day). They go all the way around the front porch of the treehouse and line the top of it as well. I'm not usually a huge s'mores fan, but i had two of them that night.
