Thanksgiving weekend

We are home after 4 days in Santa Cruz for Thanksgiving. We had a nice holiday (although we missed grandma as she was still recovering in the hospital). Here is the weekend in pictures...

waking up Thanksgiving morning


we went to a restaurant this year to keep it all stress-free, this is the pond in the restaurant courtyard

this is what happens when you let a 3 year old take your picture

Sal and Anna sharing a giant cookie






Joey and my beautiful cousin, Annie


Sal and Thomas


After dinner we all took a walk to see the amazing Thanksgiving sunset






After our walk, we made rolls (we had to keep that family tradition even though we went to a restaurant)



We skipped black friday madness and took a nice walk instead





We had another playdate with baby Micheal, both boys are getting so big


both boys playing with Joey's laptop



fun with feet




It was a long weekend, Joey needed a nap
