Thanksgiving

Had a spectacular Thanksgiving with the fam. We got both sides of our immediate family together in Charlotte. It was great to spend time with everyone, and of course it went by way too fast.

It was nice to have so many people around to help take care of the kids :) I only fed Noah a handful of bottles and Erin was very entertained by other people. And since we had some free babysitting, we were able to get out of the house for two of the three nights we were there.

I'm glad we got home yesterday so that we had today to relax before the work week starts (not that I go to work). Our day was filled with church, some shopping, making and eating dinner and then decorating our Christmas tree with Erin.

This is Erin's first Christmas tree in the house. She enjoyed rummaging through the ornaments and helping us decorate. We'll see tomorrow if she remembers that the ornaments are not toys and that they have to remain on the tree. We took video during the decorating instead of still photos, so I only have the finished product to show you (I took it after bedtime).

And here are a few other photos from Thanksgiving (we didn't take many while we were there):
