Thanksgiving Day

We have had a great week and an even greater weekend! Carson had the week off and although he was sick, it was nice having him home all week. We celebrated our first Thanksgiving on Sunday with my family, then spent the actual day with Carson's side of the family. It's so great to have the majority of our families so close to home.

We drove up to Anthem on Thursday to spend Thanksgiving with Grammy Kathy and Grandpa Brant (Carson's Mom and Step-dad). Auntie Janesa was in town from San Fransisco and the kids were SO excited to spend time with her! We had a quiet afternoon as the girls were all over the house playing dogs...
Owen was stealing the glasses, hats and casts (yes, they have a medical kit with casts) off the dolls...
Daddy was playing Wii and Play Station 3...

Owen was in heaven with all of Grandpa Brants electronics down on his level...

We had to say goodbye to Janesa...she had to catch an early flight back to San Fransisco. We'll see you next month...

The girls continued to play with their dolls, hide and seek in the backyard and chased Owen around the house, which he loves...

When Owen got tired, he would chill in the theatre chairs while Daddy and Connor played PS3 on the jumbo tv in the theatre room....

It was a wonderfully, relaxing Thanksgiving and I'm only sorry I didn't get more pictures. I guess I was a little too relaxed! Thank you Brant and Kathy for a great day!

The next morning was spent shop, shop, shopping and I think I'm almost done Christmas shopping!! Saturday was a day to catch up on housework and I had intentions of putting up the lights and the tree. Today we WILL get the Christmas decor up and we have family pictures this afternoon. Whew. I will have lots of updates and posts this week as things calm down a little.
