Thanksgiving Weekend

We had a great thanksgiving weekend this year. My parents came on Wednesday for dinner and stayed over to help me cook in the morning. Kellen loved having Grammy and Grampy stay at his house. My mom brought him a gingerbread house and they had a ball decorating it (eating it) on Thanksgiving morning. It was a gorgeous day so Greg and my Dad even did some raking and built a firepit in our backyard. We invited friends of ours who are Canadian and Welch and don't have family nearby, they have two boys the same ages as Kellen and Liam, so it was a lot of fun to have them celebrate with us, especially since we always miss the McCabe's on Thanksgiving. The boys were actually well enough behaved that we all got to sit down and eat together. Doesn't happen very often with 4 boys 2 and under. On Friday morning, my college roommate Kim, came to visit. She was in town to see her mother-in-law and made a pitstop to see us and meet Liam. It was so great to see her, unfortunately our visits these days are short and sporadic, but it's great to have the time together when we can. Then on Saturday, we got up and drove to Grandma and Grandpa's for our second Thanksgiving. It was so nice to see everyone and Kellen always loves playing with his big cousins Ryan and Rachel. Rachel is so good with him and now that Kellen is older they can actually play together a lot more. It's so fun to watch. Here are some of the highlights from the long weekend!
