But it's THANKSgiving :)

Well, Ryder and I are the only ones who haven't gotten strep throat.  Tyler had taken 1/2 the day off school on Wednesday to have some dental work done and woke up that morning with a sore throat.  He ended up taking the rest of the day off so he could go to the doctor.  His strep test came back positive, so now he's on antibiotics as well. It's been rainy and cold-ish here in Havasu the past few days which has been a nice change of pace, but it still doesn't make me miss driving in the snow!  It's been cold enough to turn the heater on at night and wear a sweatshirt in the morning :)  Ryder is learning so fast lately!  He's getting pretty good at pulling himself up to furniture and his walker and also using his finger and thumb to pick up little pieces of cereal to eat- so cute!  We finally planned out our Thanksgiving Menu yesterday and went shopping for everything on the list.  We couldn't come to an agreement on which "salads" and pies to make, so we're making 4 salads and 3 pies! Haha!  We're all excited for Thanksgiving even though we won't get to be with any of our extended family this year :(   We are so grateful to have such a wonderful and fun family and we hope you all have an enjoyable day wherever you may be as we all get to reflect on our blessings and eat some yummy Thanksgiving food!

I know it's kind of blurry, but here's Ryder standing by his walker :)
