Thanksgiving and more birthday parties!

We went up to Atlanta for Thanksgiving weekend. We started at my Mom's on Wednesday and Matt and Kublai cooked the turkey dinner and all the yummy sides on Thursday. Here's a pic of Matt carving the turkey like an expert surgeon:






Then, after naptime (for Aiden and us!), we had cake and presents for Aiden:

Grumpa Brian sneaking around to help blow the candle out!



He got a John Deere worktable!

And Auntie Becky and Uncle Kublai got him an awesome Ball Pit!




My stepsister Kelly was also visiting from Honduras with her adorable baby girl, Linley:





We went shopping at Garden Ridge on Friday, but we waited til after Noon to avoid the crowds. We ended up getting ornaments for our new tree at a great price, and there was no crowd to be seen, so it was well worth it! On Saturday we headed to my Dad's, where Aiden had yet another cake and more presents:




Part of the Sit 'N Spin is behind him, a tractor is next to him, and he's opening "The Night Before Christmas". He also got a cute workman's vest with lots of tools.

And other than Aiden having a bit of a cold, we had a great time!
