Off to La Quinta!
Saying goodbye to our Molly
Dinner with the Searles
Thanksgiving Day Photo Shoot with the Cutest Kids in the World...
Knowing we only have another year or two with Hailey home for Thanksgiving...we wanted to have a fun family vacation and make some memories. We headed out to La Quinta and enjoyed the semi-warm weather. We rode bikes, went on hikes, swam (at least the kids did), went out to eat, and enjoyed each others' company. We also got to spend some time with the Searles on their way to San Diego (haha Monee ;). As I laid in bed on Thanksgiving morning reading a book, I realized how grateful I was that I was that I hadn't had to get up at 6o'clock to stick my hand up a Turkey's butt. Ah, the joys of going out to eat for Thanksgiving :) The week before, I did make a mini-feast for just our family, complete with three homemade apple pies that were gone within 12 hours...hey, we Weenigs like to eat! My cute kiddos are grateful for the following: Sammy is grateful for Molly. Jake is thankful for his looks. Spencer is thankful for all the trip we get to go on. Hailey is thankful for a country where we have religious and political freedoms, a combustion of ethnicity, and the ability to thrive in a capitalist society (she may or may not be practicing for the Miss America Pageant). We headed home Thanksgiving Day and surprised the Weenigs, the McGregors, the Keslers, the Toomers, and Paul and his lovely new girlfriend Sharon-who later came to stay with us for a couple of days. I'm still trying to recover from Black Friday midnight shopping, sharing a hotel suite with four kids, and decorating the whole house for Christmas. A perfect start for the holidays!!!
Allison - your kids are the cutest - and that dog - I think we might be getting the same kind this year from Santa Claus!
ReplyDeleteI like that Jake. I enjoyed reading that he is thankful for his looks.
ReplyDeleteI also got a chuckle out of your saying, "she may or may not be practicing for the Miss America Pageant". I like your family's humor ☺.
You are looking so fabulous, lady. I love your new profile pic and I love all of the beautiful family pictures you posted here. (My favorites are of your boys posing in an action shot like they are running and the one where they give the intense eye contact with the camera. Very dashing.
Could your children be ANY more beautiful/Handsome? Love all the pics!!!!
ReplyDeleteHello Weenig family! You guys are super cute and adorable!
ReplyDeleteThis comment is actually for Spencer. I dont even know if he relented me, but he was one of my really good friends in kindergarten and 1st grade when you guys still lived San Juan capistrano. My name is Evelyn. I think it would be really cool if I could talk to Spencer again and catch up. I here that you guys are still somewhat in touch with the Ingersoll family. I bet if you called called or wrote them, Celeste could give you my contact info. By the way, that's how I found your blog, was from the ingersolls. So I guess I won't actually know if you get this, but if we could catch Spencer that'd be great :)

I meant to say that I don't if Spencer remembers me... Not relents haha
