While Hadley was being entertained to the hilt in Grandma & Grandpa Maughan's fabulous playroom - the rest of us were enjoying a very delicious and very American Thanksgiving feast (with 21 guests to boot)! Vicki cooks a mean turkey (and stuffing...and potatoes...and gravy...and pie - don't even get me started on the heavenly pie!) It was also Great Grandpa Maughan's 87th birthday so we had double the celebrating to do.
It was so wonderful to be back in Walla Walla for the holiday, and it is only one of the things we are thankful for this season. Here are just a few others:
*Each other - from moving across continents, traveling more than the average bears, and raising an amazing little girl :), we are very lucky to have one another and to be such a great team.
*Hadley - there are just not words to express how much we love our little person. She makes our life!
*Baby Dos - we can't wait for the newest addition to join our family. We are very thankful to be so blessed in this department!
*Our family - it goes without saying that we are surrounded by a lot of love and some really amazing people.
*Health - it's no secret that a few of our family members have been hit with quite a slew of illnesses in the past couple of years and we're really thankful Hadley still has all eight of her grandparents and six great grandparents to play with. (It just occurred to us that she has 14 grandparents in total....wow)
*The little things - friends near and far, my mom's help during my 1st trimester, Oscar's new windoor, peppermint mochas and eggnog lattes, Greenlake, the pass when it's clear, American grocery stores, ice cubes in abundance, amazon.com, our new hybrid, Andy's carpentry skills (and our new pantry), and last but not least Mr. Bobo (Hadley's bff).
