Thanksgiving 2009
We had such a great holiday weekend full of yummy food, wonderful family and lots of fun! Matthew, Nicholas and I have so much to be thankful for this holiday season but we are especially thankful for our fabulous families!
We drove up to Grandma and Grandpa’s house on Tuesday and came home on Sunday. We celebrated my birthday on Wednesday with a delicious Filipino feast that would have made Lola proud. We had chicken adobo, pork roast with sweet and sour gravy, fried rice, white rice, pancit and lumpia. Mom made an awesome chocolate cake and we all just chowed down and had fun. Thursday was Thanksgiving of course and the eating and fun continued. Friday was a quiet, relaxing day full of leftovers. Mom and I went shopping as usual but not too early and were home by 9:30am. I got some goodies with my birthday gift cards. Then Saturday night we went to Busch Gardens’ new Christmas Town. It was so pretty! Nicholas saw penguins, watched Mommy and Uncle Matt ride a wicked roller coaster, rode a real steam engine train, pet a Clydesdale and watched “Momo” (Elmo) in a special Sesame Street Holiday show. He did so well, especially considering we were out way past his bedtime! Sunday we all met at Panera for breakfast then we packed up and headed home. There were a lot of pictures but here are some highlights. Thanks again everyone, it was an awesome time!

I am glad that I got to visit with you and Nicholas last week at Gayle’s. Nicholas is so cute and I enjoy reading about all of his adventures.
