It is hard to believe another Thanksgiving has come and gone and now we are on our way to Christmas! We had a lovely time yesterday at Boom's new place. John and Jenny are here from Denver, and G-ma, Pa, Auntie Cat, Uncle Dan, and Hanna joined us too, along with Auntie Yoda and Uncle Craigles.
We missed Auntie Mari and Uncle Josh, who were with Josh's family.
And Bops. Always Bops.
But we had fun all day playing, going on a walk, going on a scavenger hunt, and enjoying time together.
As for the rest of the week: Maya hung out with Boom.
The girls were goofy and crazy.
And Cal made a snowman family with the sticky snow we got.
Today was the first Black Friday that Chris has had off in about 15 years! We got to do a family trip to the zoo.
Then we went to a big Gosselin family gathering at Karen and Gus' house. The girls got to play with lots of little cousins, and we got to meet the newest baby cousin Ximena!
The highlight was watching home videos of all the Gosselin cousins from the mid-90s, which was straight up awkward early teen years for most of them. There were concerts and sporting events and other family holidays. It was amazing.
And in a weird twist (and an illustration of how long I have known Gosselin peeps) there was a video of Dan's 8th grade band concert, which also briefly included his fellow 8th grade percussionist...ME!
I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving. I certainly feel like there is so much to be grateful for.
So goofy.
