A Day of Thanksgiving

While it's true that we have much to be grateful for in our lives, this Thanksgiving we were mostly thankful for the fact that we were given a brief reprieve from the terrible, horrible, no good, very bad stomach bug that plagued our house for the days surrounding it. So, while we spent the rest of the holiday weekend sprinting various kids, and then ourselves, to the bathroom in what was a veritable puke fest, on Thursday we were healthy and thankful to be spending a gorgeous day at Aunt Julie Ann and Uncle Justin's "farm" - their soon-to-be first home as newlyweds!
Daddy and Uncle Robert give Grandpa, Aunt Julie, and Eliza a push on the swing.

Noah seems right at home on the farm.


Uncle John takes a turn at the wheel.

After a picnic meal, we walked down to the creek.

The boys went "fishing" with sticks,

and Eliza got tossed in.

Uncle Joseph gives E some love.

Peeking through the window from the loft of the cabin that Justin is building for Julie and him to live in after their wedding in January. It's really amazing.

We had a fabulous day with family, which is what it's all about!
