Our Thanksgiving

Last week we were up in New York for the week.  We left bright and early Saturday morning to head to Buffalo.  Poor Jim did not do well in the car, 2 hours into the trip he got sick.  Seeing him get car sick is no fun at all. We ended up giving him some children's dramamine which helped him not to get sick again.  It did make him drowsy and out of it, but I guess that's better than him getting sick several more times.  

We had a great time in Buffalo hanging out with everyone!  Ended up having a Thanksgiving dinner on Sunday, which was very yummy!  Took the boys to go see Santa on Tuesday - Jim went up to him and started to talk to him, but did not want to sit on his lap.  We got Ben to sit on his lap, but after a couple of looks he started to cry.  So a Santa picture with the 2 boys was no successful, but we did get one with the boys + their aunts & mom!  

We made our way up to Castile later Tuesday afternoon, and had a great time hanging out there as well!  We had a great Thanksgiving visiting with everyone.  One afternoon we went down the road to check out a train set-up that one of their friends had in their basement - and Jim loved that!!  He also enjoyed a couple of tractor rides around the neighborhood.    

And then on Saturday AM, we made our way to Pittsburgh.  We got to meet Blake!!!  And visit with Rob & Jenna.

My camera battery was low, and I forgot to bring my charger home with me, so I didn't use my camera as much as I have in the past.  A bunch of pictures were taken with Mom's camera.  

All in all it was a great Thanksgiving break!!  Even though we weren't all together at the same time - it was great seeing the whole family!  

Ben's first Thanksgiving dinner!
Jim gets a haircut - Thanks you Grandma!!!  He got to watch some Caillou and enjoy a sucker, the only way he would sit still to get it all done.  He looks so much older now...
Ben really wanted Jim's sucker - 
We attempted to get some Christmas photos of the boys - it's so hard to get them both to look happy and look at the camera...
Jim helping put a Santa hat on Ben - 
Tried to get a picture of the boys together on Thanksgiving - again impossible to get them to both look at me...
