Thanksgiving

Josh and I went up to Utah for Camden's baby blessing and Thanksgiving. We had such a great time visiting family, and just relaxing! We celebrated Logan's birthday one night by going on the Polar Express, eating at Dairy Keen (the train restaurant), and of course prresents, cake, and ice cream. I don't know who had more fun, Logan, or the aunties and grandma taking pictures of EVERY moment. (You'll have to excuse my blurry pictures, I don't have a steady hand and my camera is not the best at indoor and night time photos.) I love taking pictures to document things, but I am trying a little more to also "live in the moment" and enjoy what we were doing rather than trying to get a good picture of it :-)


Josh was sad we were going out to eat on Thanksgiving, so I made him a very mini Thanksgiving of our own before we left. It turned out okay for my first turkey.

The Polar Express (p.s. I totally want the Hogwarts Express mini train for under my tree!)

Logan with his favorite person....the conductor!


Camden reminds me of the Yoda backpacks from Disneyland. She is an Ewok.

Logan was BEYOND excited.

The Elves pass out cookies and hot cocoa (which according to Logan is NOT the same as hot chocolate).

I promised Logan a marshmallow for every picture I took. I delivered.
Little Snuggle Bug slept the whole time!

I think Logan was just as excited about the Engineer as he was for Santa!
