For Thanksgiving this year we went to visit my parents. Technically it was Doug's mom's turn to have us, but she kindly let us go to my parents' house because they are leaving in January to go be missionaries in Mexico City. We'll go see her next Thanksgiving.
Before we left I got one of my birthday presents a few weeks early and got a new camera at Big Lots for $40... Not the best camera out there, but who really wants to spend over $500 just to get an awesome camera when I'd still manage to cut people's heads off and stuff.
I was a little camera happy on the trip down (and then forgot to use it much later), but here are a few cute shots of the kids as we headed south.
She wore her soccer shirt and soccer shorts from almost 2 years ago rather than wear the burgundy colored pants I bought her a few weeks ago... At least they came from a thrift store so I don't feel too bad about it.
I didn't get any pictures of them playing Go Fish, but I bet they played it a minimum of 50 times. Alex has an uncanny knack for winning even when he shows everyone his cards on a routine basis. (I don't think it's all pity either.)
We had a great time. The weather was excellent aside from some wind. As always the food was top notch, especially the pies. I detest making pie crust so we don't get pie too often, but my mom makes the best. Don't let her modesty fool you!
