Thanksgiving / House Project Weekend!

We had a great...but not so relaxing (see below) long Thanksgiving weekend at home. Oliver got to partake in his first Thanksgiving dinner. He LOVED the sweet potatoes, pie and cranberry sauce (with just a little turkey).


Yum!


Oliver wearing Cousin Tanner's cool shoes.
Yes, they have the same hair-do!


Nicole and Grandpa relaxing before dinner.


Oliver's new horsey toy from Grandma....but he's playing with Helen in this photo.


Oliver is so happy that he has a stool to stand on and brush his teeth.


The next morning we had good intentions to go snow shoeing. Turns out it was raining at the pass, so instead.....

we met up with Kirsten, Mike and Tony DiCenso and Lindsay and Chris Droz to go pick out and cut down a Christmas Tree.


Our tree!

The train was Oliver's favorite part!

Ready to cut down.

That tree has legs!

What a mess! Oliver helping untangle the lights.


And now decorating.

Almost done!

And after all that fun.....
We began the house projects.


here is the family room fireplace- post demo. Stay tuned for the new look next week!
And we went ahead and painted the living room/dining room/hallway and entry way too!
Whew!!! What a weekend!
