Thanksgiving Greatness


Our little elf.
 Mike and I spent a blissfully relaxing week visited his family in California. We stayed with Mike's Mom and Dad in their beautiful home up near Lake Tahoe and enjoyed looking at the beautiful mountains, pine trees, and even a little bit of snow. We laughed with family. We read. We watched HGTV. We ate.


Pretty much, it was great. Here's a bit of the fun:

Some of Mike's family at his parent's house.

Eli thought Uncle Steve was hilarious.
Riding 4 Wheelers
Eli and Grammy

Mike and his sisters, Katrina and Merrily.
 We even had a few firsts for Eli while there, including:
  • Teething
  • Eating his first real food, a piece of avocado at IHOP
  • Getting his first present
  • Perfecting his roll and his sitting, and getting much better at scooting his little body forward

I made our vacation a little more stressful when I read our itinerary wrong and made us miss our flight on the way back, but overall, we had a very relaxing, laid back time. It was so fun to be able to be with family!

Here's little man laughing:


And him making the cutest noise ever while making a new friend:
