Thanksgiving with family

Thanksgiving was perfect! It was my first Thanksgiving in the US since I moved to Honduras.

We got enough snow to cover the ground, even down at my Mom's house. I was so excited! I took videos to share with Laura. She is desperate to experience snow. Meanwhile, Jack and Joey can't comprehend the thought of not knowing what snow is.

My favorite part of the day was when I arrived. Jack, who is usually very self controlled, saw me walk in the door. He let out a huge gasp of excitement and charged toward me. Then he suddenly caught himself and slowed down to a walk. I got a big hug though. He's getting big now, but he spent the first hour sitting and lying on my lap.

The boys and I went sledding in the driveway before dinner. It was snowing, but not too cold.

Dinner was delicious. All of the basics. I had seconds of the meal and skipped desert.

Then the men settled in to watch football, so mom and I headed home.

It was a really nice day.





Joey asked, "Do I look mean?"

I snuck a photo with Jack and Poppy
