Elliott is in the thick of that really obnoxious pre-nursery stage. Combine that with our 11-2pm church schedule and you've got a pretty grumpy kid by the time the third hour rolls around. It's hard to fit a good nap in before church.Sunday School is rough because the RS room is pretty crowded and our teacher speaks quietly, so Elliott is pretty distracting if I let him walk around. We often end up in the hallway. Relief Society is a little better because it's not quite as crowded and there are a few other similar aged kids in there. Regardless, we are looking forward to the 9am-noon schedule in 2017 and Elliott's admittance to nursery in February.

Monday night we bought a large Chick-fil-A peppermint milk shake and split it up for our FHE treat. Anthony spent the week working in North Carolina so it was just me and the kids for a week.

At the beginning of the school year I wanted to get into a routine of exercising in the morning. I bought a gym membership to help motivate me. Elliott was pretty upset the first few times I left him at the child watch, but now he goes fairly easily. We really like the attendant Huberdine, who works Monday through Thursday mornings.

We got our first snowfall Wednesday morning. It was really just a light dusting, but it was the first time there was any accumulation of "white stuff" this year so it had to be documented.

Thursday night it was my turn to host book club. We read and discussed
The Martian by Andy Weir. Pictured (L-R, back row: Emilee, Elena, Lauren, Sarah, front row: me, Holly) I really look forward meeting with these friends each month.

I love looking at our Christmas tree. Looking at it makes me feel cozy and warm.

Saturday was our ward Christmas party. Both Elliott and Lauren were a bit apprehensive about seeing Santa. The candy cane helped ease Lauren's woes. I was impressed with the party and our ward's party planning committee and their attention to detail. It was a nice evening.
