Happy Thanksgiving!!



Happy Thanksgiving, everyone! We decided not to travel this year and hosted a small dinner at our place. We ate with friends Lauren and Yesenia, and Yesenia's daughter Azucana, and had a few other friends in and out all day.


Although it's hard to be away from the fam on Thanksgiving, Thursday wasn't a day entirely without family. We spent the morning with Gram, who is doing great. Doug was close in Chicago, and he and I were able to bond over cooking for a group of friends. Plus, Matt and I were able to speak with all of our loved ones on the phone.

Friday night, we went to Matt's Aunt Laurie and Uncle Greg's home in Middleton. I met some of Matt's extended family who he hadn't seen in a while either. It was a great great weekend.
