My parents came out to visit for Thanksgiving and we had so much fun. Elijah and Jacob were so excited to see their Noni and Grandpa. We had a great visit and got to show them our life in Ann Arbor. We went out to breakfast and went to the Farmer's Market and The Hands-on Museum on Wednesday, then Thanksgiving we braved the cold and went to the park for a little while, then back home to cook!
It was so cold Elijah had to borrow Noni's scarf |
This was the first Thanksgiving meal I've ever prepared all by myself at our home. We actually ate when I planned and I think it turned out pretty good. The boys and I had made a Thanksgiving tree (thanks for the idea Kristi!) where we got to write down what we were thankful for and then shared them before we ate. It was fun getting to hear what everyone was thankful for.

On Friday we did do some shopping, but went after all the crowds died down. Then we walked down the street to the park and played before it was nap time.
It was a great visit and I'm so grateful that my parents came to visit and see where we are living. We hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving and we are so grateful for all our friends and family.
