Thanksgiving this year was spent here in Foster City with Papa, Nana, Justin, Kelly, Brennan and Reese. We were so excited they could all make it here!!!
After much driving and a delay in Reno, Papa and Nana made it here on Tuesday. Justin, Kelly, Brennan and Reese arrived Wednesday morning. We spent Wednesday relaxing and enjoying each other's company. We had chicken noodle soup and cornbread for dinner. Yummy! While the boys were napping I made "Make Ahead Mashed Potatoes" for Thanksgiving dinner the next day. Kelly also made her delicious stuffing and cranberry sauce.
On Thursday, everyone left for a visit at Half Moon Bay. We were incredibly lucky to have incredible weather. We were all bundled up though too! Our first stop before the beach was the huge dinosaurs.
Kelly and Brennan
Kyle and Connor were asleep in the car.
Papa with Brennan and Kade.
After we looked at the enormous dinosaurs we headed to the beach. We look like we are headed to go sledding not the beach. However, it was really cold, but sunny.
Eric and Kyle.
Cute little Kyle.
Mommy and Kyle. Yes, Kyle looks adorable and I look awful. My hair is growing out horribly and I am not use to seeing myself with glasses on.
Pictures of everyone at the beach.
Brennan
Kade
Eric and I.
The boys playing in the sand.
Connor looks happy even though he is probably freezing.
Nana and Connor.
Our little family. We are all squinting because of the sun.
Heading back to the car.
Getting ready to go home.
Wait, I want to play with and eat the camera.
After we went to Half Moon Bay we came home and the boys took a nap. I finished all the loose ends for Thanksgiving dinner. Because we made some items the day before, preparing dinner was so much easier. After dinner we just relaxed and visited.
Friday morning, before the depressing Boise State game, we went to visit Fisherman's Wharf. We, again, had incredible weather. I have never seen San Francisco as clear as it was on this day.
All three boys climbing in the Sea Lions.
Kyle being his mischievious little self.
Connor being somewhat happy. He wants to get out of the stroller.
I couldn't decide which picture I liked. In the first two I love Connor's little face. His expressions are adorable!
This one is funny because it looks like Kyle is picking his nose. This is the second picture I have of him doing that and it the only times I have seen him do that.
There was this huge Christmas Tree. We thought it would be a nice picture. All of us are wearing our Boise State gear. Too bad they lost that night.
We, again, rode the carousel. Kade, at first, wanted to ride on the bench. I am glad he decided to ride on the horse.
Silly face!
Real smile!
He looks so serious!!
Mommy and Kyle.
Here are the boys loaded up in the car. Ready to go home. Kyle finally settled down.
Both times we have left the carousel, I have had to carry Kyle screaming and kicking because he doesn't want to get off. He would not settle down after that. He just started throwing one of worst tantrums he has ever thrown. We were almost running through the crowd to get him to the car. I still don't know if he was just tired, teething (2 year molars), or just being a little stinker. Everyone went home and took naps. We had dinner and than almost everyone stayed up watching the sad football game. I fell asleep, but Eric made sure he woke me up to tell me they lost. I thought he was joking at first.
On Saturday, Nana and Papa left (just in case they hit a bad storm or car accident again). The rest of the day we "chilled" with Justin, Kelly, Brennan, and Reese. When the kids were sleeping Kelly, Kade, and I went shopping :) Soon afterwards they had to leave to catch their plane.
We are so glad everyone was able to come. We had a really great Thanksgiving!! We hope you did too!
