For Thanksgiving, some of our friends invited us over for dinner. Dinner wasn't starting until 6:00pm and I only had to bring some sweet potatoes. It made for a fun day. We woke up, and I wanted to go for a jog. Well, I can't jog without Snickers and Porter and Eva wanted to come along on their bikes, and Ivy wasn't about to be left behind. So our Thanksgiving lineup: Teresa with the dog on a leash, Dave riding his bike while towing Ivy in the trailer, followed by Porter on his super fast bike and Eva on her little pink bike. It had to be hilarious to see. They definitely pushed me to keep my pace up!

After that we had a nice long family nap and then still had half the day to kill. So we went up to a mountain range called Camelback. We had SO much fun hiking around. It's nice to have the kids older so they can hike on their own. Ivy is definitely getting heavy. I can't wait until she is a little more stable and can start hiking on her own.

All that exercise and time together actually really put me in a "thankful" frame of mind. It was a great way to spend Thanksgiving day!
