More Turkey Time
















From Scary Spider Man to first taste of Mashed Potatoes, we had it all this weekend. Lots of time with family and of course lots of fun!!

Lemons are Yummy!!

We were all ready for the sour face, and all we got was a 8 month that took down a lemon like it was candy!

Thanksgiving











So we packed up the kids and headed to the mountains. My cousin took in my family and my brothers (thats 4 kids under 4) and hosted a unforgettable day. The table was beautiful, the food was amazing. Finleigh got her turn to sample mashed potatoes, although she did not think as highly of them as her brother did a few years ago.




We took the jeeps, bikes, rhinos and FJ out on the trails where Aunt Amanda was a trooper all the way!! The kids got to climb by the creek, and the baby girls slept in their carseats safe and sound. We then ventured to a 50's diner where they had GREAT burgers, fries and shakes. Bear particulary loved his chocolate shake. Finleigh just knawed on a lemon slice and was happy as a clam.




Next we were off to Big Bear with Uncle Chad and crew. We stayed at this great cabin/hotel by the lake where Maddon and Cole had lots of fun exploring. The mommies stayed in while the kids crashed and the Daddies hit Chad's place. The next morning we woke up to SNOW!! And alot of it. We were not prepared for 6-8 inches that had fallen early in the morning. But it was beautiful.




We packed up and headed to a sopt for breakfast/lunch, where Uncle Chad got stuck in the snow trying to tow the Rhino in the snow with no chains or 4WD. But we made it, had a great meal and then headed down the hill. I am so grateful to have these times, and I hope that there are more to come!!
