Thanksgiving in Topeka

Happy Thanksgiving! We had a very busy and fun-filled Thanksgiving week. The Friday before Thanksgiving we drove to Topeka to have an early Thanksgiving with Ryan's side of the family. His brother B.J. and new wife Jodi were in town from the Cayman Islands so we were so excited to see them! Ryan's grandma and Grandpa S, along with his Grandpa E, came in town to visit so Cooper and Jackson were able to see all of their great-grandparents on Ryan's side!

Cooper had a great time playing with everyone and calling "BJ!" "Chris!" a million times. He LOVES his uncles. They brought him to toys R us to get his very first nerf gun and he was SO excited to play with it. Still loves it.

Here is Jackson in his Thanksgiving outfit.

Cooper riding on the riding lawn mower. He told me afterwards "I no cry!" I think he got kind of scared toward the end, but enjoyed it at first!

Cooper and Jackson. Jackson's in the Bumbo for the first time-thanks Grandma and Grandpa S!

All the boys. Doens't Cooper look so happy to be out there with them? Holding his precious nerf gun too!
