Zoe had her 3rd thanksgiving of the year at her uncle Jeff and auntie Heather's house. There was a good crowd and Zoe's favorite item was Nana's cranberries.. she ate several spoonfuls, and only managed to partially wear it as a clothing color and hair gel.
The trip started with a night with Nana and Grandpa's.. I haven't seen her so wound up and excited in a long time. Nana pulled out a bunch of toys, and had them ready.. after a long airport day, Zoe was so excited to play with them.
The next day we went to The Pie.. the pizza place Bruce & I spent many days and nights at (closest place to get beer next to campus.. I'm sure Nana and Grandpa went there too during their college days). There she met up with Kristi (and two of her friends), as well as Rich, and Elaine. Then she spent the afternoon with Nana, and part of the time with Carrie and Rebecca while Mom and Dad tried to recruit Utah students. Zoe had a fabulous time.. she played with the new shoes Carrie gave her.. then we caught up with everyone of Paella (home-made by Carrie.. delicious).
Then Zoe found herself in the company of her cousins Brooke(5) and Barton (7) and her sister Rachelle (18)... She was soooo wound up, she didn't go to sleep until almost 11.. those 4 cousins sure have fun together, but it has to be acknowledged that Barton is Zoe's favorite. In the morning when she woke up and I brought her upstairs, Heather, Brooke, and Barton had a contest to see who Zoe would run to first.. they all tried various ploys.. but it was no contest from the start.. she runs to Barton, and sits in his lap... so cute.
We had a fabulous trip, and are now trying to figure out how long we are going back for x-mas.. I'm sure I'll have a few more stories from the trip to tell later. now I need to go put PJs on a cutie.

I missed you all very much this thanksgiving too, as I do every year. Looking forward to the pictures of Zoe covered in cranberries :)
