Christmas Lights

Ruby LOVES Christmas lights so we've made several outings to go check out the lights around Sioux Falls.  We have frequented the Western Mall's Light Show three times already and we love it!  The music is great and it is a great cause for the Make-a-Wish Foundation.


We have also gone to Falls Park to take in the sights there.  A little chillier option than the indoor light show but still very fun and beautiful!





Thanksgiving

We had a wonderful Thanksgiving, being able to see both sides of our family this year.  Paul had the weekend off before Thanksgiving so we traveled to Iowa City and Williamsburg.  Fortunately, we had tons of fun, but unfortunately, I didn't take many pictures...

Paul had to work the Wednesday before Thanksgiving and the weekend after but by some wonderful schedule mishap, he ended up with Thanksgiving off even though it was technically his holiday to work, so we were able to see my family then.  We got together with my mom's whole side (46 people if I counted correctly) and Ruby became instant friends with Tara who is 8 months older but the exact same size... and her hat twin for the day.  ;)
