Scarlet Pimpernel, Thanksgiving Yoga, and the Christmas Tree

Douglas and Penny came to Costco with me last week.

Grandma Coombs babysat the kids on Tuesday so that Sam and I could attend this classic play.

Station Park - "You want to take a picture of me?"

"Okay.  Cheeeeese!"

Namaste

 Justin, our fellow ward member and friend, took Douglas and me (with his SUV and trailer) to a tree farm so we could pick out a Christmas tree.

 Douglas and I took advantage of the first good snow storm of this winter.  We went to the "tunnel park" to play for a couple of hours.  Penny stayed home (sick) with Mom.  Douglas and I built this snowman to represent politicians (from the 1800s?).  The snowman is faceless, representing the fact that we do not know who the real power players are behind the politicians.  The snowman is armless, representing the fact that politicians don't do much.  Or . . . we simply built a snowman and didn't have anything available to make a face and arms. :)
