Thanksgiving 2014

We hosted our first Thanksgiving this year. I had fun decorating the table and Shea was proud of how his turkey came out with his butterflied method. We all got to sit around the table and had a nice time visiting and filling our bellies. Shea and I are most thankful for all our wonderful family and friends.

My pretty table. Shea even re-upholstered the chairs for me. 

Watching cartoons waiting for their guest to arrive

He cut it up and then made it look like a turkey again.

 

The boys at their table and yes Cruz is having pizza. I thought I was the worlds most pickiest eater until Cruz came along.

We all fit around our table it was really nice.

The boys got quite attached to cousin Jennifer

Taking Caden for a little ride

Practicing flag football with Grandpa. Cruz will play this spring and starts practice with his team in February. It is a no tackle flag football the kids just run around trying to rip off each others flags. I think this is something Cruz will have fun with and Grandpa already bought him a football and flag belt to start practicing with.

and still sporting the Police hat.

Awww nice weather means park time again. The boys love getting to meet up with their cousins.

Time to do some work with Grandpa

Caden thought this looked like a good spot for a nap. He really feel asleep and was still pushing the button to make the quad go. He drove himself to sleep.

Cruz thought towing his brother would be great

Cruz's 1st School Field Trip

In October Cruz went on his first school field trip with his Pre-K class. I forgot to add it to our October Fun post. Cruz and Shea headed up to Yucaipa to an apple orchard where Cruz got to learn all about how to make apple juice.  He also got to pick an apple and then they surprised the kids and let them all go into a pumpkin patch and pick out a pumpkin for Halloween.
