Thanksgiving 2012

For Thanksgiving we headed south to Santa Fe to spend the holiday with my sister and her awesome family. The kids always love playing with the Wilson's and are sad when we have to go! (Ok, they are sad whenever we have to leave any cousins house...they just have too much fun!)

My sister is in charge of their Elementary school's Turkey Trot (she does an awesome job and it was fun to help out a bit!) that has a 5 k and a 1mile fun run. Jack and Tyler did the 5k, this was Tyler's first 5 k...and as you can tell from the picture above it was quite challenging. They are above 7000 ft and even Jack said it was super challenging for him because of the cold and elevation. I was so proud of Tyler for finishing it!! I did the 1 mile fun run with Katy and Jacob...lets just say I ended up being LAST, and had to carry Jacob the majority of the mile. It was fun. The kids made play dough with Aunt Valeriane (she's a superstar...it was even scented!). Of course we also enjoyed delicious food and made gingerbread houses with all the kids. It is so fun being close to them again and being able to see them a few times each year!
