We were so looking forward to Thanksgiving this year because we were heading to California for almost a week!!! We headed to CA on Wednesday afternoon and came back the Tuesday after Thanksgiving. We had such an amazing week with my parents & Christine, Jim & Ben. The boys did so well together and it is trips like this that make me even more thankful for the amazing family I am a part of! We were busy, busy, busy and spent our time playing at parks, playing games with the boys, golfing, catching a Twilight viewing, visiting Zoomars petting zoo, playing Mexican train with the adults but also just relaxing in the hottub, laughing and enjoying being together. We ended the week with a day at Disneyland - so amazing!
The boys at the airport excited to get on our way...
Mom always has the fridge fully stocked for our arrival :)

We decided to do a Thanksgiving craft with the boys and they all made a turkey handprint shirt!
Brady's creation...
Time for a delicious Thanksgiving dinner!
Friday we had Ty & Erin over and we spent a gorgeous day outside playing blongo ball, swimming and just hanging out. It was sooo warm that we even went and changed into shorts!
Jim getting everyone wet with the "cold water" by doing cannon balls :)
Saturday morning the guys went to play golf so Mom, Christine & I took the boys to the park for a few hours. They had a blast on the swings, slides, playing in the sand and just goofing around together!
After the guys got home, the girls got to head out on an outing of our own....Twilight viewing - woo hoo!! We saw the last Twilight together and it was so good!
Sunday we headed to San Juan to go to a petting zoo called Zoomars. It is so cute and the boys loved it. You can pet & feed guinnea pigs, ride horses, pet goats and llamas and of course go on slides and just run around like wild toddler boys do :)
Grandma & Chase playing WAR and GO FISH before we headed out...

How do you not take a picture of this?! Lol
My turn!
Time to ride horses! Chase was in heaven - he had the biggest smile on his face the whole time :)
Brady wasn't so sure..lol. He started crying and we felt so bad but he stopped and I think he ended up kind of enjoying it by the end :)
Of course we found the slides
Feeding a llama a carrot - haha! Thank goodness he didn't spit on us like he did on some other families!
Time to ride the train!
