So my parents came out for Thanksgiving and we had lots of fun. It was my parents first time seeing Cali so it was extra special. She loved giving my dad lots of kisses and hugs and loved playing with or trying to walk the dogs. My mom got to play lots of games with the kids which they loved. Wednesday we got to visit the zoo. Dorian had my dad figured out. PIck out a toy and then ask my dad for money. My mom got the kids each a penguin stuff animal which actually smelled like fish. Dorian also got some squish sharks that ended up stuck on our ceiling. We got to see some fighting bears, odd birds, and icky creepy reptiles. Cali was brave and kissed a croc on his nose.

On thanksgiving day my mom made the turkey and I made: greanbeans with almonds, mashed potatoes, apples,pears & squash w/ cinnamon, apple cranberry brie dip and stuffing. Oh also I made a pumpkin cobbler. Yah it was goood. Then saddly my parents left Friday morning but not after they made their famous special breakfast.
All in all we had a great time and I was glad they came to visit. Here are a few pics from their visit.

It sounds like you had a great Thanksgiving with your parents. I want you to make me the cobbler. :) Your table looked really pretty. I love how quickly grandkids learn to ask their grandparents to buy something for them. :)

Glad your parents were able to come ... looks like some good food! And Cali is getting so big. I love that pic of Ryan and Cali on the bridge. She definitely still has more hair than Johnny ... and probably more teeth, too. :)
