Thanksgiving Weekend!

YUM!! We started Thanksgiving out with Nate's family ... I forgot to put my memory chip back in my camera, so this is one of the only pictures I got from the actual day! :(
We had a great day, filled with lots [too much] food!! And great company! [even if Casey did kill us all in scrabble!!]

The next day we went to look at the Caring & Sharing Christmas decorations. So pretty! Jackobi loved all of the lights and colors! {can you tell by that CHEESY grin!!} It's such a fun tradition & great cause!

We usually plan it just right so that we can look at everything at the Caring & Sharing and head out just in time to watch Santa ride around the square and light up the town! It was a lot of fun! Jackobi really enjoyed watching {and waving profusely!!} to Santa -- she was dancing to the band and everything! It was very cute to watch her so excited! (we'll see how she feels about Santa when I try to get a picture of her on his lap!!)

The fireworks afterwords were another story! She really liked them at first, but the loud BANG in combination with her napless day did not mesh well!! Let's just say she waved "bye" to them and then had a melt down.... I guess we'll force the nap next year!

Sara was home for the holiday and stayed with us a couple of days, Jackobi sure loved the extra attention and made a new best friend!! It's fun to watch them play together!!

All in all, we had a great Thanksgiving weekend!! We're excited for the next month of Christmas decorating, baking, shopping and all it entails!!

Looks like a great holiday! I gotta be honest, I am a little jealous you have both families around especially at this time of year as crazy as it may be to find a good balance.
