Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving was a lot of fun. We started the week by going to the temple and stayed in Palmyra for the night with our friends, the Leighs. We love our overnight getaways from school and since we can't be with family we try to make the most of our holidays. Tyson learned how to climb out of his pack-n-play and so we all got less sleep than we wanted. He was very difficult the next day so we decided not to go to the children's museum like we previously planned and just went swimming at the hotel.
We spent Thanksgiving with some of our favorite people. (We're missing the Nielsens in this picture. I don't have pictures of the feast. I didn't have my camera on me the whole time.)The food was amazing! Maybe I was starving by the time we finally ate or maybe the food was that good but I think it was the best Thanksgiving food I've ever had. Thayne would disagree. He started to get sick on Thanksgiving and so he had a hard time tasting anything. I on the other hand loved everything and ate way more than I should.
The weather was beautiful in November. It didn't snow here till December 1st and we were LOVING the 50's and 60's that we got for the majority of the month. Buffalo is known for LONG winters so we're grateful that the cold waited a little bit before it set in. Since Thanksgiving we have all caught the dreaded cold. First Thayne on Thanksgiving, then Tyson, and now me. Tyson also had 2 teeth come in and he has been miserable, grouchy, and whiny. It seems like we got through the worst of it because he is our happy boy once again.

I'll take him even when he's grouchy and whinny. There's advantages to not having lowsy hearing.

I can't believe how big Tyson is! He is so cute....
Also, I can't beleive Buffalo has been that warm! It was 20 degrees here today and we have over a foot of snow. I thought I was moving somewhere at least slightly warmer...
