Thanksgiving, 2014

It has been almost 20 years since we spent a Thanksgiving holiday on the family property, but this past weekend we Christened the new cabin with its first Thanksgiving celebration!

Spending the weekend with our families (Gma, Gpa, Mamie, Papa, Uncle Mike, Uncle Victor, Catherine, and Uncle Bob) was relaxing and enjoyable.  We had a great time playing in the snow, making bonfires, setting off rockets, watching football (and movies each night!), and going to town to meet Santa at the Christkindl Market.

Snow on Saturday morning was a fun surprise, too!

Am I the only one who finds this incredibly exhausting?

baby steps.




I hope you're enjoying the magic this season.

Happy Holidays!

Here are some pictures, if you'd like to see. During George's 20 week ultrasound Kevin admitted he'd almost fallen asleep, so I will admit: I had a hard time staying awake this time  :) But we did get to see him in 4D ultrasound which we've never done before, so that was really cool. So fun! After our appointment we went to breakfast at Salish Lodge and took my first Month of Bumps picture. (cue shrills of excitement from everyone eager to see belly pics for the next 4 months!) Before taking the picture I (lovingly) assured Kevin that yes, we would be taking...

A Suburban NYE

We partied hard with neighbors for New Year's Eve this year, and it was perfect - no need to dress up, tackle crowds, or spend big bucks - add to that great friends who are also neighbors, and it's a win/win.
