Happy Thanksgiving!

We had a wonderful and relaxing Thanksgiving.  For the first time in our 8 years of marriage, we only attended one Thanksgiving dinner on Thanksgiving day.  In the past, we would spend two hours with each family and always end up wishing we had more time to visit (and eat!) and end the day feeling exhausted.  So this year (keeping the limits of a 3 year old in mind) we spent Thanksgiving day with the Corbett family at Uncle Brent's.  The food was delicious, and the company was even better.  I got to spend lots of time snuggling with little Mikko and Addie had a blast playing with Noah, Taylor, Avery, Braden and Maddie.

After a relaxing Friday (the only black Friday shopping I did was online!) and Saturday, we went to my parent's house to celebrate Thanksgiving Engstrom style.  The food again was delicious and we enjoyed spending time with Eric who is home from California and Great Grandpa Wes and Great Grandma Audrey.  Addie enjoyed being the center of attention and Max got lots of snuggles.  It was especially fun to see Wes scoop up Max and cuddle with them... there is nearly a century between the two of them!

We have so much to be thankful for this year, especially two beautiful, healthy children and a wonderful and supportive family.  Thank you!
Happy Thanksgiving!
