We celebrated Christmas with my parents and my sister during our trip home for Thanksgiving since we weren't coming home for Christmas this year. Evan slept through the whole thing but Paeton really enjoyed opening her gifts and receiving lots of 'Toy Story' things. She is in LOVE with Woody and Buzz Lightyear...it's quite cute.
My mom and I took Paeton & Evan on the 'Santa Express' train ride in Flemington, NJ during our trip home for Thanksgiving. It was very cold this day but little Evan slept through the entire trip. Paeton still only enjoys large dressed up people such as Santa Claus from a distance but she did enjoy the train ride and meeting a new friend, Alex.
We took a 6am flight out of Milwaukee into Philadelphia the morning of Thanksgiving. The kids traveled in their turkey pajamas and did really well on the flight. This was Evan's 2nd trip to NJ - he's a great traveler. Several women on the flight commented on his large cheeks; he gets that a lot :)
I started this post on November 13...I'm just getting around to adding the last picture and posting it. I had titled it 'Blessings' on Nov. 13 with no specific reason other than I liked that title and how it related to the exact moment when I took these picturess. My life has been crazy over the past six weeks but it's nice to sit down and remember my blessings.
