Happy Thanksgiving everyone! I hope that you all enjoyed the holiday and celebrated with great family, friends, and lots of yummy food! Andrew and I celebrated Thanksgiving yesterday, and we did things a little differently this year. We usually spend the day with our family, however this year we decided to keep things a little low key and keep it just the three of us.
We started off the day by going to the Calgary Corn Maze and Farm Fest, and had a really great time! It was really fun to watch Nico experience some new things like go down a big slide (with either Andrew or myself), touch and play with the pumpkins, and see some different farm animals. He definitely seemed to enjoy himself!
Following the pumpkin patch, and after Nico’s afternoon nap, we enjoyed a really delicious Thanksgiving meal. On our menu was turkey, stuffing and gravy, sweet mashed potatoes, a mix of vegetables with cheese sauce, and some fresh garlic bread. So good!! Andrew is not a big fan of pumpkin pie, so instead we had some tasty chocolate croissant donuts. Yum! Nico is still not big into eating meat just yet, so he had a good size serving of sweet potatoes, which he ate right up!
After dinner, we went for nice family walk to the park nearby our house, where Nico tried the swing for the first time! He is still pretty small, so we used a blanket to help him sit in the swing. He absolutely loved it and smiled and laughed the whole time! His expressions were so sweet and moments like that are just so priceless and irreplaceable. Andrew and I live for those special moments.
We had such a great Thanksgiving weekend and I hope that all of you did as well! Here are some photos that highlight all of our fun! Enjoy!
