More Thanksgiving

After Thanksgiving Dinner, we took a walk to see the Christmas trees in the city and the Macy's windows. This is the tree at the Hancock Center.



Yesterday we did a little Black Friday shopping in the morning and then had another nice Thanksgiving Dinner at Jason's dad's. Today we're eating leftovers and relaxing. Long weekends are so nice.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving! We're thankful for so many things! Friends and family are on the top of the list. Last weekend we got to hang out with my friends from school. Wendy and Eric flew in from San Fran and Katie and Brett came from MI to visit. We had a really great time and wish we all lived closer so we could hang out more often. On Saturday, Kari joined us and we went to the DIY Trunk Show. Here we are after:

A couple of weeks ago we had professional photos taken with Jason's mom. This is my favorite so far (we've only seen a handful of them - more to come).

Today, Jason's mom was in the Macy's Thanksgiving Parade (balloon handling) and then came over for Thanksgiving Dinner. The turkey is in the oven now. Last night we made two pumpkin desserts. This is our pumpkin cake with cream cheese frosting.

And these are our pumpkin chocolate chip cookies. We saw these on TV yesterday and got the recipe here http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/george-duran/pumpkin-chocolate-chip-cookies-recipe/index.html. They are delicious and we'll definitely make them again.

Hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving!
