Our Thanksgiving

We had such a good Thanksgiving.  We got to go to Colorado and be with our family there.  We got there late Wednesday night and just relaxed then on Thanksgiving we had all of my Mom's family come over from Cortez and we all had dinner together.  Sadly we were so busy that I totally didn't think to get any pictures, but it was so nice to be around family and get to see my new niece and for everyone else to see Merrick.  It was so great.  A much needed break and family time.  Sadly though, later that night I woke up and was nauseous and was sick throughout the whole night and then didn't feel good until around lunch time on Friday.  Then Nate got sick during the day on Friday too.  He wasn't as bad as me, but it limited the things we did for the weekend.  Thankfully our boys didn't get sick, but we passed it on to my brother-in-law and my sister which I felt just awful about.  Sadly, because of the sickness, we couldn't see my Granny and Aunt because there was no way they could stand the chance of getting sick.  But, we made the best of it and got to hang out with everyone.  Kayton was a little nervous around everyone and he has never been that attached to me but he knows who Nana and Papa are and loved to talk to them and ask where they are.  He also absolutely loved their pool table and kept asking to go play with the balls. He also loved to go up and down the stairs.  It made me realize how super small our apartment is.  I miss being so close to them.  It was so nice to be home.

Great pictures. I am so sad that we didn't get to meet Merrick, but so glad you had a good time. Surely the opportunity will come again soon. Thanks for sending me whatever I needed to get on your blog. I'm enjoying reading all about you guys and seeing some great pics. Love you!!!
