Our company arrived Wednesday afternoon and the kids were able to entertain each other all evening. Thursday we spent some time at the park, the kids napped (all five!) and we had a yummy Thanksgiving meal with my parents joining us.

Friday morning we headed to an open space park just south of us to hike around and get some clear views of the mountains. Afterward, we stopped at a local park where the kids did a "nature scavenger hunt," and played for a good long while on the playground. We all napped after lunch (adults included!) before heading downtown Denver. Friday night turned into a bit of a debacle - we planned on eating out before watching the parade of lights, but Myles threw up twice at dinner and we found out that the parade was actually the following weekend, not that night. Oops! We still had fun spending time together and looking at the Christmas lights downtown.
We took it easy on Saturday, let the kids play, did a little shopping, and watched the girls so Joe and Jen could get out alone for a bit.

A Thanksgiving weekend spent with family is one of many things we have to be grateful for this holiday season!
