Happy Thanksgiving

Happy Thanksgiving everybody, I hope it was a good one for you. This was our first one without Craig and we definitely missed him. Some of our family got to come over and spend time with us and that was a great distraction. 
We played Hide-and Seek....
went on a great Wheelbarrow Adventure,
 stuffed out faces, and got lots of  suggles and family time! Oh yea, and watched some good football games too! We are very thankful for our friends and family and can't wait to see the rest of you soon!

Adventures with Grandparents


The Kids have been loving all the attention from their grandparents. My Dad took a few weeks off and has been having a blast with the kids. He has been taking them to the park most afternoons and it has given me some free time! 

There are a couple of parks near our house. One of them has a pond and some ducks and geese. The ducks came up to my Dad and Austin and started to follow them. Austin didn't like them following them and took off running. They still followed them and Dad had to put him up on a picnic bench. Dad feed the ducks and Bailey watched and giggled. 
This one Austin calls the bloody duck. I think because of the red on it's face. This one is also an aggressive one, the one that scared Austin. 

Getting ready for the ride.
This is not one dealing with the park but it was cute. I was over at Craig's parents house
with the kids,  sitting out with his grandparents and parents hanging out. I found this seat in Japan and thought is would be good for the bath. As you can see it is also good for other stuff.
  
Today Austin and my Dad went flying with Papa (Craig's Dad) to breakfast, and they both had a great time. Austin has been asking to go since before we left. I am sorry to say, I didn't get any pictures. I rushed out the door and forgot my camera... maybe next time.

Our trip so far...

This is Austin and his friend riding the train on the way to Tokyo.
Austin decided to write his name on his leg while going potty. Can you read it?
Bailey is playing peek-a-boo.
My Mom teaches 3 yr olds and Austin is getting to go with her to class. Her school had a fall festival this past weekend and he won some prizes and also got to ride this horse.
