FO: Regular Guy Beanie (for dad!)

I knitted dad a hat since he has no hair and his head gets cold :)

Good thing I finished it right before we went to NY last weekend. It was cold and snowy up there and he needed it! 

Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving from our family to yours!

EVFD - Fall Clean-up

My brother, Seth, is a member of the Ellington Volunteer Fire Department. When dad had his stroke a few weeks ago, they wanted to do something nice to help him out. So while we were in NY this past weekend, they snuck a group of fire department members over to our house and did a fall clean-up. Dad was very surprised and so thankful for all the help to make the yard look nice! Here's just a few pictures they sent to us. 

New York

This past weekend, we went to NY to visit family and to serve lunch in church on Sunday. 

We got to meet the newest little Virkler, Andrew Joseph, born to my cousin Joe and his wife Bernice. 

They have lots of snow already. But then again, they have snow all winter long. It never goes away. 

Saturday we made and dipped chocolates, which is a family tradition. Here they are ready for dipping. 

Me and dad, sporting the hat I made him (blog post coming soon)!

I'm so glad that Bethany came with me for the weekend! 

Family

Family is the best.
