Thanksgiving recap

It's now December but I didn't want to forget to recap our Thanksgiving holiday. We were able to go up to Eagle Rock to spend a few days with my family--making it even more special was the fact that BOTH of my grandfathers were able to be there to spend it with us! I was so glad for the kids to be able to spend time with great-granddad again and to meet great-granddaddy for the first time--such a special memory we will always be able to have! I don't have any pics of the entire family on my camera (hopefully Renee will post some soon, hint hint!)

We got to spend some quality time with my super cute nieces and nephew!

Miss Mia
Miss Kaylee

We ate some delicious food, including the best turkey ever, cooked by my hubby!

I really have the most creative sister-in-laws EVER. One evening once all the kids were in bed and the adults were playing some games, Kendy and Renee decided to make cupcakes and somehow then ended up decorating them in some type of thanksgiving theme---how cute are they?!!



One of the most exciting things for the kids was that we woke up on Thanksgiving day to find SNOW! It snowed all day but did not snow at all the day before or after, so it was just perfect! The kids didn't exactly have full snow gear with them, but they (well specifically Alex, Nolan, and Mia) enjoyed eating some snow nonetheless.
Gotta love this girl's face!

We had a great vacation and it was wonderful to go with our entire family!
