Thanksgiving

We had a great Thanksgiving break with lots of downtime and lounging at home which is just what we needed!  On Thursday we went over to my parent’s house for lunch. 

Lincoln loved eating the frosting from my pumpkin bars

Friday we just hung out at home and started to get into the Christmas spirit by pulling out the Christmas decorations.

Saturday we headed to a new Christmas tree farm to pick out our Christmas tree.  A tradition that I love doing each year.  We loved the place.  So many great trees to pick from and a much better experience than where we went last year.  Although it was a cold one the kids had a great time and were very excited to decorate the tree. 

The tree Gavin wanted (because it's his favorite color :))

Saturday night we headed over to Ryan’s parents’ house for dessert to celebrate Keith’s birthday.  Sunday we relaxed at home in the morning and then had family pictures that evening.  The kids overall did great and I can’t wait to see the finished product.  Only downfall is that we’ve been all trying to get over colds for what feels like a month and both Ainsley and Lincoln’s really escalated Sunday night which made a not so fun return to work this week with a trip to the doctor and several days home for Lincoln L.  Luckily they are both on the mend hopefully for a while to come.

Family picture sneak peak.  Lincoln was terrified of Santa :).
