Thanksgiving 2012

This year's "thankful tree"

We spent this year at my sister's house up north. What a fabulous time we had!!!!!!

A little "gaming"

A little crafting

My Jaida blessing

My Julia blessing

My Sam blessing

My Xin blesssing

And my newest and littlest blessing Lulu. So very thankful she was with us this Thanksgiving!

A little hiking......

to the top of a "hill" to see this view of Cincinnati

The crazy 8 cousins!

Trying to organize a family picture with all 16 of us.....sweating a little after this!

Xin lost his 1st tooth on Thanksgiving!

And Hamilton lost another too....a busy tooth fairy that night!

More hiking....because oh my did we/I eat ALOT!!!!

My blessings!

She had to walk too!

  The Purple People Bridge goes across the Ohio River to Newport KY.

It turned bitterly cold at the end of the week and we knew we were up north!

Jungle Jim's...a HUGE Intl market.

Two dorks straddling two states!

My sister has great shoes and my "girly girl"clomped around in them constantly and even fell asleep in them!

We had such a wonderful time and thank my sister, her husband and son for allowing all of us to take over your gorgeous home for 5 days! You were the perfect hosts....and oh my... 1 more day there eating your fabulous cooking and I would have had to go to the fat farm!

So thankful for time together. Hope you had a blessed Thanksgiving!
