Thanksgiving Week

We changed things up a bit this year and headed to Florida for Thanksgiving break. We met up with Mom-Mom and Aunt Megan and Liz at a condo right on the shore! This allowed everyone to enjoy the sun and sand and scenery for a few days.

We ordered Thanksgiving dinner in to allow for more beach time. The kids loved finding shells and digging in the sand. On Thanksgiving day, Eli buried Ruby (at her request) and made her into a 'sand turkey'. She loved it.

And after dinner that day, we all took a long walk on the beach as the sun set. It was beautiful weather!

The kids were excited to meet their new cousin, who was very tolerant of all of the doting (especially by Ruby).

After we drove Mom-Mom back home, we swung through our favorite açaí bowl cafe in Cocoa Beach for lunch, and then made our way to a putt-putt course. We played 18 holes and followed it up with go-karts, which was a blast. Random fun afternoon in the best weather ever! (It's not often you can play putt-putt in Florida in the middle of the day and have it be enjoyable, in regards to temperature.)

We finished our trip with dinner out with some 'old' friends. Ruby was asked by, get this, OUR flower girl to be a flower girl in her wedding next year. Such excitement!
