As expected, Thanksgiving was much busier and chaotic this year. We spent the day up at my parents with both sets of my grandparents, my aunt and my sister's family. I think it only took me an hour to eat my meal between feedings, getting the girls down for naps, diaper changes, etc. Definitely not the relaxing holiday it used to be.
Kens actually went to Nana and Papa's house the Monday before Thanksgiving to spend a few days with them and cousin Elli who was also there. We missed her those few days she was gone, but she seemed to have a great time between baking and icing cookies, playing hide and go seek, playing outside, tractor rides,etc. She even teared up and said she didn't want to leave when we tried to head home on Thursday evening.
Friday, mom, Ash and I headed out for our annual Black Friday shopping trip. As usual, the day did not disappoint. We managed to make it out earlier this year and we were shopping at 4:30 a.m. We had a successful morning and we were home before lunch!
Here are some pictures of our Thanksgiving.

| Testing out the swivel chair...she loved it (even though she isn't smiling here). This was a favorite of Kensley's as well when she was about 5 months old. |

| A trip to Nana and Papa's is never complete without a tractor ride. |
