Thanksgiving in Iowa

It's been a busy week. Jeritt had his ankle operated on, again, to hopefully give him more range of motion. Another Thanksgiving on crutches! This year we traveled to Iowa to Grandma and Papa C's house. We were joined by Aunt Erin, Uncle Martin, Alice, and Uncle Sam (and Dale). It was great to be together and also visit my grandparents. Once we returned home, it was time to transition to Christmas. With snow on the way, we're ready to get festive!

I had my ankle scoped last week so we brought back the scooter. 

Jack was the sweetest helper.  He really wanted to make me dinner. 

We played the game "Match" a lot in bed as I recovered.  It was pretty competitive.

Maeve did not sleep well at night.  She put herself in the car-seat and fell asleep at 11am

She fell back asleep when I let her out. 

Maeve may be addicted to the matching game.  

Jack took quite a few photos with my phone. 

Roller skating!
