It’s Fall Ya’ll

Dear Blake,

You started 5th grade! You are doing so great and getting good grades! In the fall we went to Bengstons and Konows and had fun with Papa and Gigi! We also went to County Line Orchard with them and picked apples! We celebrated Halloween and you were Charizard. We carved pumpkins and also had a sleepover at Papa and Gigi’s house.  We started doing some Christmas things as well!  We went to Bass Pro Shops and saw Santa! We helped Papa and Gigi decorate their Christmas tree. We also put up our Christmas decorations. We went to the Mokena Christmas parade.  We painted Thanksgiving placemats. We celebrated Thanksgiving with Papa Johnson, Grandma Sandy and Papa Mike. Your Grandma Irene passed away right before Thanksgiving. We are going to miss her a lot.  We painted an elf door and then our elf Jingle came! We helped Grandma Sandy and Papa Mike put up their Christmas decorations and also started basketball. Wow, we are having a lot of fun!

Love,

Mama
