Thanksgiving

I wanted to do this much sooner, but I'm finally posting a few photos from Thanksgiving. We all went to Julian and spent it in the mountains. I thought about it a long time and I decided this was my favorite Thanksgiving ever. First of all, I think the food was better than any other time. Mom, you have to make those same mashed potatoes next time! But more than just the food, it was so cool to hang out with everyone and play lots of cards, Scrabble, pool, king of the jungle, etc. I had lots of fun with my nephews and nieces -- it was a great time.

I really like this bathtub photo of Zadie and her cousins. Don't ask me why they're wearing rabbit ears -- my mom just thinks they're cute and likes to put them on the girls. The photo of me and Zadie and Tori was taken in downtown Julian and we were dancing with Zadie sandwiched in the middle. And I LOVE the photo of Zadie in the basket on my mom's tandem bike. A similar photo will be featured on our Christmas card, which I'll post later.

Zadie is mostly a really amazing baby. She's very happy and full of smiles, even though we sometimes push and wake her up by dragging her all over the place. We're very lucky. She's ten months old now and loves to stand up and hold on to the coffee table and carefully edge around it. She only has the one tooth, but she's eating lots of different kinds of solids and is pretty good at gumming stuff.
