I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving. We spent it in the Bay Area with Mike’s side of the family and had a really great weekend, despite the crappy weather that kept us indoors more of the time. It’s hard to believe that it’s already December…the year AND decade are just a few weeks from ending. Also, our new book, A Whole Lotta Knock-Knock Jokes, officially hit stores last week!!! It was on the top of several lists, including new releases, jokes and riddles, and children’s humor. It makes a great stocking stuffer and also a great way to pass the time when you’re stuck inside due to bad weather – Annie, James, and their cousins had a lot of fun with it over Thanksgiving weekend.

Little Baller
Annie and James both had their first basketball games of the season yesterday. Annie had an amazing game with several steals, rebounds, and assists. She kicked butt, and her team won!!! For James, it was his first basketball game EVER. Watching six-year-olds play basketball is…very entertaining. It was a dream come true for James, though. He didn’t touch the ball much but still had an absolute blast. It will be fun watching both of them this year.

Fun Finds
