this thanksgiving was one of the best ever. although it was weird not being home and around a million family members, it was fun to host our very first ever thanksgiving dinner. we were lucky enough to have quinn's family fly all the way from boise out here and spend the holiday with us. i had fun decorating and making all sorts of foods i'd never made before and quinn loved cooking his first turkey (which was the best and juciest i've ever had). we didn't want quinn's family to leave (especially jayden who was held literally the entire time) but it was comforting to know that we will see them in two weeks for the christmas break.
waiting patiently for the fam to arrive
the fun arrives!
with quinn being the young men's president, we happen to have a whole lot of paint ball guns in our garage, so after thanksgiving dinner, joe, quinn, joel, and our friend j.d. went into the woods behind our house and played for a while. other than j.d. getting hit in the face by quinn, there were no real injuries. thank goodness.

coco always knew how to make jayden laugh
joel did a fantastic job at putting jayden (and himself) to sleep
grandpa has the magic touch
eating dinner out on the ohio river
grandma not letting go of jayden right before leaving and pleading to take him with her. i'm sure j-dog wouldn't mind.
here's a little video to show jayden's cute little laugh

seriously cute little laugh! Jay should give Cal some tips because we think we're really funny sometimes but Calvin just smiles really big. Maybe we're just not that funny...
that was adorable. I going to hope that you weren't doing a naked dance for him;)
oh my gosh that is so cute!
He is so cute. Is Joel taller than Quinn?? When the heck did that boy grow so big?
I'm glad you guys got to have some family out there for Thanksgiving, and that Karen got to play with her grandbaby.
Happy late Thanksgiving guys! Looks like you had a great holiday... Jayden is so cute and is growing up so fast! He could run laps around Ty - we laugh because Tyler is such a little lazy boy. You would think that he'd be trying to keep up with Braden a little, but he's perfectly content to just chill and stay fairly immobile. This is TOTALLY fine with me, since I know what comes when they can crawl and walk - watch out! Glad to see that you're having such a good time in KY!
Can't wait to meet that cute kid during the Christmas Break! Seriously we need to get together! Hope all is well and I'll see ya soon!!!!
