Brian, Risa and the boys, and Elizabeth, along with Risa's sister Jean, joined us for the holiday weekend for Thanksgiving. We had the traditional fun of feasting....
playing....
reconnecting with loved ones, and....
enjoyable walks and play time at the parks.
Ever the boyish desire to play with sticks...we can't go anywhere, or on any walk without Liam picking up every stick within reach to play with or rock to add to his pocket collection.
and here, Ryan and Connor playing swords.....boys, sticks and rocks....they all go together.
Thanksgiving day was beautiful so we took off for a walk along the New River Trail.
This one got tuckered out! What a lovely day.
The remainder of the weekend was just as nice too. Elizabeth and I headed out at 11:00pm to hit Target and Walmart for their crazy black friday sales.....and I certainly was crazy tired after that, but we had a great time. Saturday morning (after sleeping in) all the girls piled into two cars and headed off for more shopping. The boys piled into another to find a few deals of their own...(games, of course) I started getting sick on Saturday, but, Risa and Elizabeth made our traditional homemade turkey noodle soup and it was super delicious!! just the perfect thing for my monster head cold.
Sorry about the head cold. Those are the pits.
ReplyDeleteIt looks like the rest was lovely, though ☺.
I so hear you on the boys with sticks thing. I am forever worried that someone is going to poke their eye out.
