Thanksmas


We went to Yale, Iowa over the weekend for Thanksgiving/Christmas with the Mleyneks.
We went up a day earlier than everyone else so Miles got lots of Grandma snuggles.

And Cooper really enjoys the farm. It was cold, so the four wheeler tours
of the farm were limited and I didn't go out to take a picture but Cooper did get to see the cows.
And take Grandpa's boots for a spin:

Then more 'playmates' came:

And we were stuffed with lots of yummy food!

PIE!

Miles enjoyed all the attention:

Bella wanted in on it too:

As our Christmas tradition, we drew a name out of the bucket...

And that person got to pick an ornament to take home:

Cooper had a gift from Grandma Debbie too:
(He loved the Nerf Gun!)

He's also very into baseball right now... I think everyone pitched to him at
some point and he played pretty much constantly.

He also wrestled Uncle Den:

And helped Aunt Mal workout:

We had a great weekend!

It was relaxing:

Thanks, Grandma & Grandpa!

Now I'm in the mood for Christmas!

What, Thanksgiving comes first? Oh yeah... another great holiday.
Love this time of year!!

    You and Derek both seem to have such open, loving families.
