Thanksgiving in the Northwest

We were able to spend Thanksgiving in Washington, thanks to our wonderful family! Graham and Paleia and family, were nice enough to have Thanksgiving at their house. We stayed with Cindy and Steve, and loved being able to spend time with them. They were so generous to us: gave us both rooms, slept on the couch and air mattress for 4 nights, let us use their car, took us places, bought us stuff and were wonderful to be around. We ate dinner at Graham and Paleia's every night, hung out at their house, went to Snowflake Lane and just loved being around everyone! Nora couldn't get enough of her cousins, and Tate was happy to have new/different toys to play with.
We got to meet our new nephew/cousin Sam, and Beau was able to participate in the blessing. It was a wonderful weekend, and we wish we could still be there. Of course, the only pictures I took were at Snowflake lane (my favorite Christmas activity). This was the first night, with the Santa parade. It was good times! doesn't Paleia look great, one week and one day after having a c-section. She's one tough lady!




 

 By the end of the trip, the kids were so tired from playing. I gave Tate this bag that was on the floor, and he went right to sleep.
 Nora was just as tired, or maybe she was just missing her cousins.
Thanks Washington Cartiers! We love you and miss you all!
