Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving 2009
Denver, CO



We had a great Thanksgiving with the Seybs. Everyone came to celebrate the holiday here in Denver. It sure is nice to have family around. More hands more ears more help! I'm very jealous of you Mommy's who have grandparents so close!

We were so glad Aunt Katie got to come! Katie and I ventured out on Black Friday and had a fun time. We didn't leave at 3am or anything. But, there were still good sales at 8!! We had fun chatting and catching up as we waited in line. I'm pretty sure the other ladies waiting in line enjoyed our chatter too! They got an ear full. The boys loved having Katie (or Kaykey as Campbell calls her) here as you can see from the pictures.


Campbell climbed up in Katie's lap and fell asleep!!! So not like that boy!

Here Spen is chatting it up and using his hands while he's telling his story.

Spencer picked out the Children's dictionary for Oma to read!! Oma didn't mind and they read and read!!

These boys do love their Opa. I don't know what it is about a man, but my kids love to act as if men are their personal climbing walls. Opa never once complained about being constantly trampled on by little ones. He got lots of love amidst the climbing so I think that helps! Spencer had a plan for all the things Opa was going to play. Spen loves to keep Opa very busy.
Oh and when we were deciding who would sleep in Spencer's room with him we mentioned Opa and Spen says, "I think NOT! Opa is very loud!"

We managed to get a family shot after only 4 tries! And look at Spencer's face!! He was ready for that flashing light.

Spencer and Campbell making milk soup. What is milk soup? I haven't got a clue. But playing in the sink making milk soup entertained them for quite a while.

We also celebrated Katie's bithday. Spencer was so happy to sing to her. On her b-day Jake, Katie and I got to go out to eat and see a movie!! Thanks to Oma and Opa for keeping the boys. I hadn't seen a movie in the theater since Spen was 11 months old!

We had a very happy easy going Thanksgiving. This year I am most thankful for health. Especially my children's! Thank you Lord for my happy healthy children.
