Thanksgiving

For Thanksgiving this year, Andy, Isaac, and I went up to Wichita to spend the holiday with my family.  It was a fun break from our day to day life.

The fun started on the way up.  We left right after breakfast on Thursday so that we could get to Wichita in time for dinner (my family eats Thanksgiving dinner early).  Isaac needed a nap, but wasn't really interested in taking one in his carseat.  Thank goodness for the magic properties of my hair.  I reclined my seat all the way back, put my hair across his lap, and we were good to go.  I'm so grateful that Andy got a video of it!


When we got to my parents house, we were greeted by a house full of people!  My Aunt Jodi, Uncle Paul, and their family and Aunt Patti, Uncle Mark, and their family had all come down from Kansas City to celebrate Thanksgiving.  It made for a very busy house, but a really fun dinner!



After dinner we were Skyping my sister Allie who was at our grandparents' house in Utah.  Isaac plopped right down in front of the computer and said hi.  It's so fun that now he's old enough to actually interact with people on Skype!


Since it was pretty cold over Thanksgiving, we didn't go out much.  Isaac did insist on going out to play in the leaves though.  That boy LOVES leaves!


Reunited with his swing.  He was soo happy to play in it again!

Stomping in leaves with my dad.


Raking with my mom.  At first he wasn't so sure about it...

...luckily he warmed up to it pretty quickly. 

It was a really fun weekend and we were happy to be able to see everyone!
