This year we spent Thanksgiving in California! We all survived the long flights with a very large lap "baby". :) And loved being back in southern California and catching up with Greg's family!
Here the kids are waiting by the oven for the turkey.
And then they started this...
They love having breakfast with Grandpa.
We had so much fun at the pretend city. Such a great place.
My favorite part was the garden with lots of dirt, shovels, and veggies to plant. They had quite the harvest. :)
We enjoyed spending some time with Greg's aunt and uncle--Axline Family one night. We didn't get a group picture, but got a few with the kids playing with their cousin-in-law Jill. They loved playing with her...and probably wore her out!!
We even made it down to San Diego for the day to visit some good friends. Mason and Addie are birth buddies! They were born a few hours apart. We love the Deans!!
We also visited with our good friends The Egans that evening over dinner at their house. Didn't get any pictures!
The kids adore their Aunt Cindy! She gives them so much attention. We are lucky to have her.
These are from the day at the Irvine Park---what can get better than a train, pony rides, and a zoo all at the same place?!
Mason's first pony ride!
And we were so very sad that Greg's mom "Grandma Deanna" found out she had Shingles the day after we got there. :( She was home resting and recovering the week we were there. We missed having her apart of all the fun, but are so glad that she is doing well now!! I know it was hardest on her, because she was so excited to have us there and put in so much work getting ready for us! We will have to make up for it soon!
