When we found out we were pregnant and due December 3rd I knew we were going to stay here in Colorado for Thanksgiving and Christmas. I also knew that they would have to be really low key chill holidays. My original plan was to just spend them with the Birches - and then they moved!! I didn't really have a back up plan. I KNEW I would have the baby by Thanksgiving so I always planned Thanksgiving with the thought of having a new born. As we got closer and closer to Thanksgiving and no baby we sort of assumed I would be in the hospital for Thanksgiving and the objective turned into what our kids would do for Thanksgiving. Anyways... after a few invitations we ended up at the Armstrong's. I didn't bring anything. It was kind of weird, but like I said, we all assumed it would just be the kids. But Thanksgiving night rolled around and Jason and I came. It was a really great low key night. My kids were the only kids there. Lucinda in our RS president and Corey was/is Brock's 11 year old scout leader. They have 2 teenage kids at home and they were really great to play with our kids all night. It was a wonderful Thanksgiving dinner, then we played games, played with Lego's (they have MILLIONS) and then watched Miracle on 34th Street.
