Thanksgiving Break

Kevin and Ethan had 2 1/2 days off school for Thanksgiving break so we headed over to the coast with my parents. My sister and family went out to the Midwest to see my dad's family, so it worked out ok for the rest of us to go to Pebble Beach. It would be pretty cozy for ALL of us to be there at once. We only took a few pictures this time, and none at the beach. I was hoping Hudson and Brooklyn would be walking by then so they could walk around by the ocean, but they're taking their sweet time just like big sister.

My mom and I took the kids to the aquarium on Thanksgiving morning while the men went golfing. This is the second time we've gone on Thanksgiving morning and it is a perfect time. Since we're members we can get in early and it felt like we had the place to ourselves for the first hour or so. It was much better than when we were there this summer. Brooklyn loved it all right away, Huds was a bit more cautious at first, but warmed up and had a great time.

Checking out the puffin birds. It was feeding time so it was fun to watch the birds dive underwater and go after the fish.

Clam shell pics, a must do. A nearly impossible task to get all four looking at the camera at the same time. I think this is the best we got.


Reading time with Papa.

Making whip cream with Nana.

It was nice going with my parents because it gave us some help with the kids and Kevin and I were even able to get away for a run together one morning. My mom and I went shopping and took Morgan. It was a pretty fun girls morning. Kevin, my Dad and Ethan all golfed Peter Hay one afternoon. It was nice to give them some one-on-one attention.

Papa and Nana and the kids. Thanks for a fun weekend!
