Happy Thanksgiving!






We celebrated Thanksgiving by going to my parents house to visit with them and my brother. It was a beautiful day outside so we spent lots of time outside while we were there. We also played games and celebrated Uncle Mike's birthday. We had a delicious dinner and spent the night. We spent the whole day Friday there as well and Jason and I even got to go to a movie while Ma and Pa watched the boys! Oh and Friday morning Max went with Pa to get donuts - I think that was the highlight for him. He tells everybody who asks about Thanksgiving that he went to get donuts with Pa :).

We also celebrated with Jason's family the Sunday after Thanksgiving. Unfortunately I didn't get any pictures to commemorate the day but almost everyone attended and we had a nice time.

Max's family birthday party







On Saturday we celebrated Max's 4th birthday with a family party at home. Ma, Pa, Uncle Mike, Grandma Luster, cousin Michael, Grandpa Inman, Uncle Carey, Aunt Casey, and Uncle Jonathan were all able to come. We enjoyed Max's favorites for lunch - homemade mac and cheese, chick-fil-a chicken nuggets, fruit salad, and chocolate cake. He opened his presents and played and visited with everyone. It was a fun time and Max loved everyone being there to celebrate his birthday with him.

Happy 4th Birthday Max!









Today Max turned 4! When he woke up in the morning we gave him his present from us, a Caillou treehouse playset. Caillou is one of his favorite shows to watch so now he can reenact the episodes with this playset. Then, we celebrated with a party at Chuck E Cheese in the evening with some of his friends. He loves Chuck E Cheese and I'm pretty sure he wanted a party there because Kyle had his 6th birthday party there. He did not, however, want the whole party package with the singing and dancing - that part overwhelmed him at Kyle's party. So, we just invited a few friends and found a corner of the place to camp out and ordered pizza and tokens and brought cupcakes for everyone to enjoy! It was a fun time. And Jason even won the jackpot on skeeball - 150 tickets! So we ended up with quite a stash of tickets when were done! When I put Max to bed he said "That was the best birthday I ever had!"
