Thanksgiving Recap

This year was our turn to go to Prineville for Thanksgiving to visit Brad's grandma and other extended family. We left on Tuesday afternoon to drive to Portland. We stayed the night at our friend's house. They have two little kids. Their oldest is a month younger than Brody and their youngest is 4 months younger than Colt. It is always great going to a place with lots of different toys and accommodations for little ones. Plus they are great company and its fun to catch up on life with them. (If only we lived a little closer).

After spending most of the morning with them on Wednesday we loaded up the boys and drove down to Prineville.

We arrived at Grandma Denton's around dinner time and had yummy pizza for dinner. Thanksgiving morning was exploring Grandma's house and watching a little of the Macy's Thanksgiving day parade (I turned it on because it was a favorite in my house growing up).

The rest of the day we spent at Brad's cousins house. They had a nice playroom for the kids and delicious food so we were all happy.

The rest of our time in Prineville was pretty relaxing. Brad hurt his back so was a little immobile for part of our time there, but I'm happy to report he is doing much better now.

Our trip home took a lot longer than we had hoped for. We made it back safely and are starting to get ready for our month of Christmas.

(Once again my camera was being temperamental so I only got a few pictures while we were down there)

Brody was lucky enough to get to ride on a quad with cousin Scott. He loved it.



All three of the grandkids. Colt is actually smiling for the camera. He usually has a serious look on his face.
