Matt went to Arkansas again the for a few days the week before Thanksgiving. So, my parents were already coming out for Grandparents Day and decided to come a few days early to stay with me while he was gone. That weekend we went to the Christmas Tree Lighting at Crocker Park, like we always do. We are usually freezing, but this year it was raining :(. We had fun anyway though and the lights were set to music this year and a lot of fun to watch!

On Sunday, we all went to church and then back that night for "Hanging of the Greens" and "Jingle Fest". We all went with the boys to "Jingle Fest" and they made Jesse trees, which our advent calendars. Each day you were supposed to add one more ornament to the tree. Both boys have them in their rooms and they are awesome! They put all the ornaments on at once, but each one symbolizes something important from the story of Christmas and Jesus' birth!
Here is Landon with his Jesse tree!
On Monday before Thanksgiving, Matt got to help out with Landon's Thanksgiving Feast at school
So much fun!
Then, on Tuesday, Mom & Dad headed to Landon's school for Grandparents day. They were there for 2 hours and had a blast….they sang songs, did crafts and took pictures! After that, they were allowed to take him out to lunch. When they left Panera and dropped Landon back off, they headed to Illinois. We followed them 4 hours later when school was over and headed to Illinois through Sunday for Thanksgiving!
Thanks for coming out again, guys! We love having you here and I know Landon was so excited that you got to go to Grandparents Day!
