It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas

We had all the trees up before Thanksgiving so that when we came home from our Thanksgiving weekend away we could go straight to decorating.  
I just love this family picture....
Even Deuce and Millie are looking!
We had a wonderful time decorating as a family..








Last year the kids were so cute and made ornaments for each other so this year Aubrey asked if we could make it a tradition! How cute is that?!? So they each designed and bought all the supplies to make each other a special ornament. 



They are just too cute!!!
Can't wait for a fun 2018 Christmas season!

Thanksgiving 2018

Thursday November 22nd was Thanksgiving and this year it was at my families side on the real day.
 Our Thanksgiving morning started off at home.  I had a nice run and Spencer went to the gym.  When the kids got up we made cinnamon rolls and watched the Macy's Thanksgiving day parade.
 Carter was excited to see a toad outside our front door that morning.
 Then we packed up and headed for the mountains..
 When we got up to Sonora Papa was excited to use his metal detector with the kids.  They had so much fun finding fun treasures that Papa had hidden for them.


 We took some cute family pictures...


Nana and papa do such a great job preparing the entire meal! Aubrey got to help with the rolls...


 All the rest of us just got to relax..

 Being with our whole family and enjoying dinner together was amazing!  
 Titi's famous pies..
 After dinner we played games and then watched movies it was a great night.
 Friday 11/23 in the morning Spencer and I went to the gym while Nana and the kids made us monkey bread.  It was so yummy!
 That afternoon Nana had got us all supplies to make really fun Christmas decorations.



 Then we went to the Nutcracker movie which was really cute!

 That night we went out to dinner and up to the casino.  It was such a fun day!
Saturday 11/24 was the Supinger side Thanksgiving in the Bay Area.  We had a nice drive and then we got there had another fabulous feast... 
 We celebrated birthdays...

What a wonderful Thanksgiving! We are so blessed that we live close to family so that we get to be with everyone and celebrate what we are thankful for.
