Thanksgiving

We weren't sure if we would travel this year for Thanksgiving but we decided to be brave and drive it! Thankfully it was just fine, even if we had snow the entire drive there and multiple stops from an 8 month pregnant one!   We got there safe and sound! Phew!!!!
 I think some of the best parts of visiting family is the little moments..these are a few of our favorite moments!   Jolie playing the piano with Uncle Erik!
 Jacob rough housing with cousins Nolan and Colton!
 Giselle was able to go to Cousin Lucy's ballet class...sorry too many cute pictures to post just one!



 Genevieve helped Aunt Laura make pies for the feast...here they are making the gravy!
 Giselle got a bitty baby for Christmas..she is wearing a matching dress to her doll!
 I brought a few activities for the kiddos to do after we ate.  We made bracelets and did mad libs and made Thankful turkey hats.  The bracelets were the favorite for ALL of them!!
 Playing games...and more games and more games!!! PIT!!!!!!!!
                         Lots of snuggles with grandparents and cousins!
 We are VERY blessed to have a grandpa and Uncle be dentists!  Even more blessed that they come into the office on their day off to help us out!  Jillian came along to assist Grandpa and she was GREAT! She held Jacob's hand when he needed it and loved using the sucker!!!
We also LOVE having an Aunt that knows how to do hair and will take her WHOLE day to do ALL of us!! Jennifer you are a Saint!
We had a wonderful visit with everyone and even though the weather was cold and dreary we still feel so blessed and grateful to have been there for family fun!
