Thanksgiving

We were all super excited for Ryan's family to come out for Thanksgiving this year, not only were his parents coming but his sister Bethany was able to come as well.  The kids adore their aunt B and we were excited to show off our new home and area to her.  We had a great week together and tried to fit in as much as we could.  Time always goes faster than you want it to.  :)
Grandma and AJ making some pumpkin bread for the family to enjoy
Watching old videos on Grandma's phone
One cool dude
We were out at Bass Pro one day after having lunch at Bricktown and AJ found this really cool ATV...I think he was hoping he would find this later under the Christmas tree :)
Little man is intent on his toast
Some fun ornament coloring time with Grandma and Pa
We also had a nice day to go to the zoo...I promise it was not as cold as these Central Coast Californians make it look ;)
Pa, Grandma, Aunt B, Jake and AJ checking out the anteater
AJ was sooooo excited to ride on the carousel!!!  His excitement sometimes comes across as very intense as you can see on his face.  :)
Pa and Jake having a blast
And AJ was just in heaven with Grandma

Boys goofing off on a large bunny

Halfway through our zoo day Ryan was able to join us which made the boys really happy.  :)
Jake and AJ making pies with Grandma
AJ kept wanting Jake's turkey hat from his Thanksgiving Program and so Jake made him one of his own...not sure AJ thought it was as cool...but it was still very sweet :)
Jake and his Aunt B both love doing puzzles, so it was fun to see them working puzzles together
Turkey!!!!
We had a great Thanksgiving dinner, tons of yummy food!
Although I think AJ mostly loved the pumpkin pie :) (and yes he chose to wear his camo jammies all day long)
Jake loved the entire dinner!  Gotta love this boy and how well he eats now, no more picky eater. :D
Not a great picture but it is so AJ.  He loves to give hugs, and his are given with his whole body and soul.  They are fantastic.  But when he really wants to give a love he wants to smoosh his check to yours...its so cute and something very special from him.
Jake wanted to make a new game on Thanksgiving night...
...pin the feather on the turkey!  Love my creative boy!!!
Ending a perfect day with a book.  What a fantastic Thanksgiving!!!
Thank you so much Grandma, Pa and Aunt B for coming to spend Thanksgiving with us, we loved every moment of it!!!
