Thanksgiving part I

Before we headed down to Oregon for our family tour, we had a lovely little Thanksgiving celebration at home. It started with a snowy visit to the coffee shop, chatting with friends, then a day of cooking, movies and eating. Macadam, at first, looked to be revolting against Thanksgiving fare and then he went crazy for cranberry and the turkey leg, it was hilarious and surprising. While I always think we should do more throughout the year to remember how lucky we are in life, there are few holidays that match for tradition, coziness, love, and delicious food as Thanksgiving does. It's more and more fun as Mac gets older too, which makes me even more thankful for a happy, healthy and whole family.

Let it snow

We had three days of wicked weather here in Seattle. Luckily, we were able to stay close to home once it got really bad. The good? Snow on the ground and a little guy who loves it. Early Monday morning Macadam insisted it was tickling him and by Tuesday afternoon it was his snow, or rather, "my snow." What's the point of anything if it can't be yours alone. At least to a two-year old, everything is his:).

Here are some shots from yesterday afternoon and bit of the snow had melted, as well as a walk on Sunday which had him getting prepared with his cold weather gear.

Funny faces

Last week we celebrated Rob's birthday and during our birthday breakfast of waffles and strawberries, Rob and Macadam decided to work on their lion imitations.
