Thanksgiving and Advent
My blog posts are all mixed up chronologically, just in case you are feeling confused...This is what we did over the Thanksgiving break (I think this was a Sunday). There's a nature trail kind of park close by that is by Lake Houston. We love to take a hike and the girls love to throw little rocks into the water. 


Here's my pretty dog in a picture all by himself! He's such a good boy and so sweet with the girls. It probably helps that they think it's really fun to give him treats. He got to run around loose a little here and managed to eat something that made him very violently ill in the middle of the night. Ewwwww! Luckily I heard him making weird noises and was able to let him out for most of it. The girls thought it was very interesting to take him to the doctor the next day and see him get a shot. :) 
We also put up the tree and put some of the garland on. We saved the rest for when Anton was with us again.
Two silly girls pretending to sleep together.
There's Anton! It was a school night with lots of homework though, so we had to wait a few more days for the ornaments.
The Christmas orchestra concert was beautiful as usual!

Here's Anton's girlfriend Allison. She's very sweet!
She came over to help us decorate the tree (2 weekends ago).
Anton getting is ready to go to the region band competition. He did really great! He competed at the highest level (5A even though his school is only 4A). He got 2nd chair so he will get to compete in January in the area level to try to get a spot at state. He also gets to be in the region orchestra performance sometime next semester, which he loves and the concert is a real treat for us. In case you are wondering about his outfit, he just had to show up with black socks and belt. They keep the concert tuxes at the band hall.
