Thanksgiving

We decided, since we've been saying that we would for 5 years, to go to the parade in New York city. It was a beautiful day. 65 degrees and clear! We even found people from our ward right in front of us. Their son Alex (same age as DOm) and Dominic sat on the curb and watched the parade. Since he was up with Alex I didn't get to see his reactions. But boy did we see Taylor's. Afterward Dom said he liked Charlie Brown the best and "Old McDonald" (Ronald McDonald). Then an easy drive home and then over to the DOmiguezs for a great Thanksgiving feast. Fun fun day! Definitely and day to remember. How beautiful is this?

Mayflower Celebration

Last Sunday we went to celebrate the pilgrims with the Mayflower society. (Grandma, Grandpa and Thia Deb.) Dominic got to be the drummer boy this year. He lead the procession of children to make the offering during the church service. Surprisingly he was great! And needed no help in drumming and leading! Later we went and had a Thanksgiving dinner. Yum! Big highlight (other than seeing Grandma, Grandpa and Thia Deb.) was to see Hope. This is Jonathan's cousin. She is Denise's brother's (Uncle Bill) oldest daughter. She was lots of fun and great to see her! Thanks again to family for inviting us. We always have a great time!

5 Little Pumpkins

Monday was Dominic's class Halloween party. They sang songs, we played games and ate great food. When Dominic was on stage he didn't sing like he had sung at home so the above videos are him doing it loud and clear.
