Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!

Hope your holiday was as blessed as ours. On Thursday we went to Greg's Aunt Peggy's house for a big Turkey Day feast with the extended family. Then on Friday we went to my Auntie Karen's house just a few blocks away (lucky us we got to just walk over!) They catered yummy Hawaiian food, which was a nice change after stuffing ourselves with turkey the night before!

Whole weekend was amazing. My cousin Cindy and her husband Kelvin came in from London to stay with us for five days. It was a great time catching up with them - we watched lots of movies, stayed up late (12 midnight, VERY late for us these days!) and baked several batches of cookies. Oh, and of course went out with the crazy people to the Black Friday sales.

So much to be thankful for. Now, we are looking forward to Christmas which seems just around the corner!

Kayla in her holiday best



As is typical of my family, whenever Kayla is around they act like paparazzi around a movie star - flashbulbs galore!


Kayla having the rare bite of cake, followed by some crazy, sugar-induced behavior. She was bouncing off the walls! Notice grandma instigating this behavior by happily feeding her, and notice Kayla's clasped hands and hungry face - she could not get enough!


Here's me and my cousin Cyn


And all the girl cousins! I can't believe how grown up we all are!


Kayla's newest 'trick' is when we say "show your teeth!" to get her to smile. This is what she does (we were at Disneyland on Sunday where this picture was taken)

Happy holidays everyone!
