TJ's Birthday

We started TJ's birthday at Kids Club, then headed to our house for cake and presents. Trevor made the awesome Ninjago cakes.

Thank you Grandma Andrea and Papa Tom for the gift card

Decorating the Tree

A few pictures of our tree decorating. The kids did a fantastic job. We had fun taking pictures with the Santa hats after we finished the tree.

Every year Trevor takes the Monday after Thanksgiving off so we can go get our Christmas tree. We love going in the middle of the day without any crowds. We make a day of it by getting down all the Christmas boxes and putting lights up outside. I really like this family tradition.

Tree's up and every ones happy

Thanksgiving Beach House

We got to spend a few days at the beach house over the Thanksgiving break. The sun came out for the weekend. What a sweet surprise.

Abigail slept for the entire hike

TJ found a place for his creation in the gnome forest

Russell found a place for his creation as well

Not a cloud in the sky (still a little chilly)

Thanksgiving in Olympia

We spent Thanksgiving in Olympia with my family. It was a quieter holiday with only Jena home. We got to see Beth, Wes and Oliver earlier in the week but they couldn't stay for the actual Thanksgiving day. We enjoyed having Tyler (Trevor's brother in Seattle) visit for a few days. The food was fantastic, as usual. Grandma Kathy always puts on a beautiful feast.

We celebrated Amelia's birthday with cake and presents

Amelia's 3rd Birthday

Amelia wanted to celebrate her birthday with the family at Chuck-E-Cheese. We spent Saturday morning there together and then had a family friends birthday party in the evening. At the end of the day she was tuckered out from all the partying.

Amelia's favorite Chuck-E-Cheese ride. The bandage over her eye are covering three stitches she got earlier in the week.
