November iPhone dump

November Snapshots! View from the parking garage before I headed into work! Another beautiful sunrise in our backyard. GG invited us to the fall festival at her church, and Finn had the time of his life. They had a bunch of games set up where he could win prizes, there was a "pie your pastor" competition, and paint your own pumpkins. It was such a great night! Proud mom alert! Fox's teacher went out of her way to send us this little note, and it made me incredibly happy. Cozy season has begun! I went on a hike with a few co-workers, and it was amazing. Hopefully we can do it again soon. While Fox and I waited for Finn's bus to arrive, we saw his best friend on the street, and these two were so funny together. Friendsgiving! We hadn't been to the train park in years, but Finn suggested it, and we all had a great time. My house is always loud...can you tell? These boys are WILD! Allison is back in town, and we spent as much time with her as we could. Another beautif...

Zoolights

The hospital I work for always has a free employee night for Zoolights at the Phoenix Zoo, and each employee can bring up to four family members or friends. We've been going for years, and I'm really happy I don't have to pay for it anymore haha. Finn was in a sour mood and did not want to take any pictures with us! After I got some food in the kid, he was much better! Finn's favorite part was the swag area, where certain team members could get a duffle bag, compression socks, popcorn, and hot cocoa. We all had a great time!

Grand Canyon

At the beginning of November, I went on a little trip to the Grand Canyon and it was such a great weekend. We rented this really cute AirBnB in Flagstaff. I literally loved everything about it, and would've bought it in a heartbeat if it was available haha. The first night we found a small town tavern close to the rental where we had dinner. The next day, we took the Grand Canyon Railroad bright and early for our trip to the Grand Canyon. They had food and drinks on the train, and several musicians that would come from cabin to cabin.  The train ride was about 2.5 hours and the weather was nice and sunny at the Canyon. I called my mom when we got there to show her the Grand Canyon, and then we walked around for the next three hours, had lunch, visited shops and art galleries. On the way back, the train offered more complimentary food, and "robbers" entered the train, it was cute watching the kids on board and their eyes growing wide when the train all of the sudden stoppe...

Date with Finn

Katie took Fox on a dinner date, so Finn and I had our own special night out. He saw this light the last time we went to the aquarium, but didn't have enough money, so he saved for a few weeks and wanted to go back to get it.  It's so nice having one on one time with them! For dinner he chose Johnny Rockets. They were closing in 15 minutes and we were only able to get to go orders, but Finn loved that we were the only people in the restaurant. We ate our food on the patio, and the weather was perfect. I didn't take any pictures, but we also went to a little arcade after dinner and the nice lady who worked there gave him a free Icee. Finn kept telling me how much he loved the evening, and I couldn't agree more.
