sander family: To the Top

Ya Ya, I know you are all are complaining because I didn't post last week. Give a girl a break, I gave you two posts the previous week. :)

November, what a beautiful month it has been. I had my first Thanksgiving with the neighborhood crew on Saturday, 11/3. I got to spend the whole day with Zachary which was so neat! Our sleeping schedules did not coincide and I'm a little rough to play with yet, but some day soon, we will be best friends! I absolutely love Thanksgiving food, mashed potatoes, turkey, stuffing, I love it all! And I can't wait for Thanksgiving to really be here to enjoy with family.

My plate of food (mommy ate most of it, but I sure chowed down!)

Emily Cowden and Me

This Saturday, I went wedding dress shopping with Aunt Heather. I had a blast. I laughed and smiled at everyone and every dress. She looked AMAZING! I took a self portrait and lots of pictures of Aunt Heather but I can't post those so here's me:

And then we went to lunch at the local Mexican restaurant, I love Mexican!

Sunday we celebrated Grandma's 30th birthday (for the 20th time). haha! We went to the top of the St. Louis Arch! I wasn't scared at all. In fact, I LOVED IT!

Getting ready to board the Tram

I loved the windows, perfect size for me

It was rainy and I loved the rain hitting the window

It's on a slope so someone always had to hold me or I'd fall

Mom look, it's downtown!

Quiet in a museum, say WHAT!?

We then all went to dinner at the Spaghetti Factory. Did I mention it was raining? Well, we all got soaked walking to dinner. I was under an umbrella but not everyone had one. By the time we got there I was wiped so I fell asleep in Jordan's arms. When the food came, I moved to daddy's arms and then Bob's arms when he was done eating. I finally woke up after dessert. Boy, I was tired. Mommy wanted me to try spaghetti that night, but she ended up just feeding me pears/green beans which I chowed down since I had missed dinner. I guess I don't really know what I missed, but maybe next time!

Daddy and Mommy are taking a mini vacation this week (Thursday- Saturday) to Michigan. I get to have a slumber party with Bisnonna and Bisnonno on Wednesday, Nonna and Papa and Thursday, and Aunt Emily, Bob, Grandma, and Grandpa on Friday. Should be a lot of fun, but I'm sure I'll miss mommy and daddy a lot. This will be the longest we've been apart.

Here are some pictures from the last couple weeks, enjoy!
