Austin celebrated his first Thanksgiving this year. He got to spend it with daddy's side of the family. It was the first time he got to meet his Aunts Kristen and Jennifer, and his Uncle Bob. Uncle Russel couldn't make it, he's busy building up his new business in Oregon, Cascade Yacht Works. Austin hopes he gets to meet him soon. Grandma Ruth and Grandpa John also came. Austin loved the attention he was getting, and actually enjoyed being held by and interacting with people other than mommy and daddy (a change from Grandma and Grandpa's last visit!). We spent the days at the house, just enjoying family time.
Grandma, Grandpa, and Kristen arrived on Wednesday, and Jennifer and Bob late on Wednesday (so we didn't see them until Thursday). The big meal went smoothly, with timing working out beautifully. I couldn't have done it without everyone's help! And Bob saved the day with the gravy!! My plans to use the drippings from the turkey were squelched upon seeing the blackened char at the bottom of the pan.
Black Friday was a bust, with no deals that enticed mommy out of the house. Daddy did join his friend Antony for a bit of "late morning" shopping around 8am. Grandma and Grandpa stayed at the Drury again, so Austin could go for a swim. I think he may get swim lessons for Christmas. He really is a little fish in the water!!
