thanksgiving

we had the perfect thanksgiving day on saturday--a few days late! no macy's thanksgiving day parade, but we did have a lovely slow day full of cooking, fellowship (as colin would say), eating and snow! aaron and i were in charge of the menu this year at his parents' house, and we had a lot of fun planning and cooking. highlights included pumpkin cheesecake and classic green bean casserole. jess, andrew and suzy came for the day, as well as new friends dana and andrew telep (rick's brother and his wife) and irene and kevan and colin and nicole. the snowstorm that began so gently on our walk saturday afternoon continued with force for a few days, making vancouver and bellingham traffic nightmares but a snowbunny's paradise!


suzy, jess, andrew, me, aaron and noah on our afternoon walk


noah was concerned about his grandma (who was sick last week but is feeling better now)


andrew fed noah some butternut squash. i think it's clear how he felt about it.

noah slept in the crib at grandma and grandpa's house and seemed pretty happy to do so!
