Thanksgiving

Our journey to go visit Cody's family for Thanksgiving began with a drive to Boulder, Co. We drove to Boulder on Friday, November 19th and stayed the night with my sister and brother in law. It was fun to be with them for the evening and they made yummy chicken and dumpling soup for dinner. It was also fun for me to see my sister with her baby bump. That's right, she's about 23 weeks pregnant. I am so happy she gets to have the experience of pregnancy and motherhood. I'm also pretty excited to become an aunt! Heather took us to the airport the next morning. And we were headed for Placerville, Ca. We had a great time with Cody's family. Cody's dad has 8 brother's and sister's. Since Thanksgiving is the only time many of them are able to be together during the year they had a lot planned. Here are some highlights from the week:
