We got to spend Thanksgiving in Minnesota. I love going home to the Packer's. We had a white Thanksgiving! Philly just doesn't feel like the holidays when I can still see green grass outside. When we left Philly is was 63 degrees. Minnesota welcomed us with a chilly 15 degrees. While it was beautiful and snowy outside we enjoyed just looking at it from inside.
We had a great Thanksgiving day. Turkey with all the trimmings and lots of lots of pie (we were at the Packer's after all.)
Nathan loved playing with "Grawma" and Papa. When I would get Nathan up for the day, the first thing he would ask is, "Where Grawma?" He has asked for them both lots since getting home.
Nathan did go adventuring in the snow. We got him snow pants and boots and he looked so cute all bundled up. He was a little wary of it at first, but soon he was stomping and kicking the snow.
While we were there we helped get ready for Christmas. We decorated not one, but two live Christmas trees while we were there. Janet has helped me so many years with my Christmas tree so it was a lot of fun to help her get up her trees. The boys also helped bake several trays of Spritz cookies to be used as refreshments for the upcoming Nativity display at church that Janet is in charge of.
We did so much while we were there. We went shopping, ate so much good food, made treats, put together puzzles, had dinner with childhood friends/neighbors, and so much more. We had such a great time. We are so thankful for our wonderful family and that we were able to see them for Thanksgiving.
