A Wonderful Thanksgiving Trip


What a GREAT time we had up North at Aunt Jeannine's house. We drove 8 hours up to Twain Harte to have Thanksgiving with family. So many people showed up! It was such a blessing to have everyone there. Some of the family had not met Tyler and nobody had met Tymorie...so we finally got to introduce them. Tyler was a handful...as usual because he had a lot of late nights and napless days. It was the best trip we have had in a long time. I can't wait to see them all again. Oh, and in this picture...EVERYONE is looking!!!

Great Grandkids


We had to take a picture of Grandma and Grandpa with all of the great grandkids that were there over the weekend. Grandma is cracking up at all of the funny faces and sounds the ADULTS were making to get the children to smile!

Fishing...Hunting for Bears (pretend ones of course!) and lots of "Cousin TIme"!





All of the kids had such a fun time together. They all got to hang out with each other (something they don't do enough of) and just play. Uncle Glen had the best fish pond in his back yard that Teegan and Tyler really enjoyed. They tried to reel in the fish with a toy fishing pole that they found. Then we went on a long hike around the woods looking for bears...it was really a ploy to get the kids to take pictures for me but they had a blast running through all the trees and trails. Every time I go up there I never want to come home!

Kaliana's Thanksgiving Program




At Kali's Kindergarten class they had the cutest Thanksgiving program. The kids got to go to the four different kindergarten classes and make a craft then have a feast (Tyler and Tymorie even got to particiapate!). At the first class they made a turkey out of their handprints. At the second class they made a mayflower ship (out of milk cartons). At the third class they made an indian beaded necklace (out of noodles) and wait...I think there was only three classes. Then they dressed up in their costumes (Kali was an indian) and had a Thanksgiving Feast. It was a blast!
