THANKSGIVING

We are back from our Thanksgiving trip to Northern California! The girls had a great time visiting with there cousins, Aunts and Uncles and Grampy Paul (my Dad).
We had a fun but busy weekend. Tuesday night before we left my brother Chris and his family came over for dinner before we left (they live in Oakland). They have a little boy Eric that is almost 2 so Claire had a great time playing with him. She keeps asking when he is coming back to play.

Wednesday we left for Northern CA for a visit with my sisters family and my Dad. My sister, Dad and I made a yummy Thanksgiving dinner that we all enjoyed (even Addy). Friday we hit the malls for black Friday. Yes, we are crazy but we do it every year. It is a fun way to get into the Christmas Spirit. Saturday we went to Napa to meet Matt's parents and Aunt and Uncle for the day. Matt LOVES Napa so it was fun to fit it into this trip. Sunday we packed up the car and headed out. Apparently everyone else left that the same time we did because what should be a 6 hour trip took us 10 1/2 hours. Oh well!

We are now home and ready to decorate for Christmas. For those of you that don't know Matt turn into Chevy Chase (from Christmas Vacation) at Christmas. There is not a missing decoration. We are excited for the weeks to come and looking forward to another visit with cousins.
