Colorado Thanksgiving {Part 2}

Thankfully Sawyer was feeling better the next morning because on Wednesday we went to the North Pole. Papa and Nana wanted to take the older grand kids for a day at the amusement park. Sawyer had a BLAST! This event deserves a post of it's own so more to come... Wednesday night Kyle made everyone homemade pizza then we played a few card games.

Thursday was Thanksgiving. My parents hosted the event and everyone brought a few side dishes.  The kids ate early and then went down for naps. During naps the adults enjoyed a wonderful meal. Following the meal we took our traditional walk then came home for desserts.  The rest of the day was spent watching football, looking at black friday ads, eating more dessert, playing cards, and wrapping gifts.

Sawyer eating his Thanksgiving meal, curiously enough he does not eat well when we travel, the only thing he touched at Thanksgiving was broccoli which he normally refuses to eat

an attempt at a grandparent pic but obviously the kids were done
Friday morning we made the trek back to Denver and flew home to Canton. We had a wonderful time visiting family in CO. We packed a lot of fun stuff into a few short days but we loved every minute of it (well except for the nights...our kids never sleep well in new places, ugh)

  1. I have fond memories of North Pole Land! We would always go there the weekend of my birthday, during a family reunion trip to Colorado. I'm sure Sawyer did love it - can't wait to take my kids there some day.

    Cute cute pics of your little turkeys. :)
