We enjoyed Thanksgiving at both Grandparents' houses. First, we played and ate lots of yummy food with Daddy's side of the family and Grandma Joanne's cousins. I especially had fun playing with my second or third cousin, Zak.
Next, we played and ate desert with Mommy's side of the family. Cousin Zoey was sleeping when we arrived, and Ben and Gavin got in a short nap on the way there. I just kept going and going.
I did get to spend the next two nights with Grandma and Grandpa. We picked out a Christmas tree, played at the Gilbert House Children's Museum, decorated the tree, and went to a farm with an exchange student on the way back to my house.
We were going to see Santa at the smaller mall closer to our house, but he wasn't scheduled to arrive until 11 AM. We arrived at 10:30 and the line was already getting long, so we visited the puppies at the pet shop, played on the indoor playground for a few minutes, then drove out to the country for our tree instead. Surprisingly, I didn't get upset about not seeing Santa, so Mom and Dad were thankful for that! We'll try it again before Christmas, but with the snow scheduled for this week, it might not be until the week of Christmas! I hope it's not too late to tell him what is on my list! Today I was going to ask him where all of his reindeer were staying while he was at the mall.
