November

November was a difficult month. We celebrated Joel's anniversary in heaven on the 1st with a fish tank dedication at the hospital. We were blessed to be surrounded by so many friends and family.

Big family lunch at Olive Garden

The boys enjoyed playing with this toy from Mary Kay while I packed our stuff up for the hospital.
