Carol and I cooked our first turkey together and and it was delicious! I have to say I was very proud when we sat down to eat dinner at 1:04 and we had said we wanted to eat at 1:00. Not bad!!!! It was so great to spend the holiday with Josh and Carol and the kids. We filled the time with bike rides, crafts, stories and great food! We started a tradition this year called the traveling turkey, which we pass back and forth. The girls write the menu down, clip it on the turkey, and we use it as our centerpiece. They LOVED the idea. As Josh and Carol were leaving Cora said, "What about the turkey!" Good memory, Cora!
On our bike ride we went to a small lake that is near our house. I love having a bike trail 20 feet from our front door. The girls live it too!
The kids have so much fun in the bike trailers. 
Julia loves to ride on my back and I find her leaning her head on the back of my neck as we go. It's hilarious. Hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving. I can't believe I am just posting this and it's Christmas next week. On second thought, I guess I CAN believe it. ;)

That is great about your first turkey and they timing- amazing.
I haven't posted about Thanksgiving yet, I had plans to but really have been crazy lately.
Is my memory right that I remember that charcoal beanie on Claire?! I swear she was the baby just a couple years ago. Time goes way too fast. The picture of the whole family is ADORABLE. We missed you here for Thanksgiving and will miss you so much at Christmas. In my rush to get your gifts in the mail in time for Christmas, I forgot to put a Christmas card in!! Oops. I'll have to e-mail you one before the big day arrives. :)
