Thanksgiving Blessings

We traveled north in November to meet our newest family member Henry.  What a sweet baby boy!!

We celebrated Thankgiving with Papaw & Grandma Hested and Uncle Mojo, Aunt Dude and little Henry.  We visited with many friends along the way and really enjoyed our time together.  Thank you all for your wonderful hospitality.  We are very thankful to count each of you as one of the many blessings in our lives.

George helped Grandma set the table.  We might be the only table in town with balloons for Thanksgiving.

Andrew's unusual Thanksgiving dinner of pink stuff and pizza

A visit to Leogland and the Rain Forest Cafe was another highlight from the trip.  Zack's favorite part was building a car and racing it.  George loved the 4-D Bob the Builder movie and the pretend Lego factory. Andrew loved playing in the legos, literally.  The adults' favorites were the city of Chicago and the jungle. 

This is just one part of the Chicago model.  It went all the way around the room and used over one million legos.

Let's hear you roar Joe!

Alex, Papaw said this picture with Harry Potter was for you.

It's not everyday you get to eat lunch with fish sitting next to you.

Hello again Henry!

George sang in his pre-school Christmas program on Dec. 2.  He sang right along with the rest of them, it was precious.  When he spotted us in the crowd, he said, "there's my mommy right there" and then he yelled, "Hi ZACK!"

Today George was singing a little song, "the cows give us milk, the cows give us milk..." He stopped mid-sentence and asked me, "do horses give us chocolate milk?"
