Thanksgivin'

This year we spent Thanksgiving in the Bay Area! Nolan's parents came in from Colorado, my parents came in from Las Vegas and Nolan's brother and his wife came down from Berkley. It was awesome and even more awesome that we all get along so well. A family in Menlo Park (that we know through the church) gave us their home to stay in for the weekend! Can you believe that? They were going out of town and offered for us all to stay together in their home. It was really great. We played games, talked, ate lots of food, went to the ocean, and more. Here are some pictures from our time together...

Later that night on Thanksgiving, we had a PJ Competition...it was pretty fierce.
On Friday we took a trip out to the ocean...to our favorite little spot, the Moss Beach Distillery
My parents came back with us on Saturday to stay at our place. We went for a walk and noticed all of the colorful leaves!
The End!
