Early Thanksgiving and Warm Weather?

Last weekend Grandma Laura and Grandpa Roger came for a visit and we celebrated Thanksgiving a little early. We had a lot of fun and great weather for their visit. On Saturday Mom and Grandma (and Henry) went to Natalie's ballet class and got to sit in on class and observe. Of course having all the moms (and some dads) there made it difficult on the teacher since the girls were more interested in their parents (3 year olds!). And Grandpa helped Dad with some outside projects (and Owen hung with the guys). On Sunday we went to the zoo and saw almost all of the animals. We most enjoyed the elephants, giraffes, and monkeys. Natalie and Owen would have taken rides on the carousel all day if allowed. We had Thanksgiving dinner on Sunday night, and Natalie and Owen enjoyed eating in the "diming" room as Natalie is calling it. She now points out all the neighbors houses that have diming rooms. Natalie and Owen went to school on Monday, but Grandma and Mom picked them up early for a trip to the playground. Grandma and Grandpa left on Tuesday, and we had a low key remainder of the week. The weekend was also low key, and hot! We are getting into summer clothes again!?! We are looking forward to getting out the Christmas decorations, and hoping it will cool off again soon. Henry is doing great! He is smiling like crazy, and gaining weight and growing!
