(On another sidenote...I found Abby's cute panda beanie but lost my star earrings Matt got me for Christmas last year at the hotel, out of all the things to loose this one really sucks!)
For Thanksgiving this year we decided to take a little trip to California to spend the holidays with Matt's family and we had a blast! We drove to San Jose (12 hours, yikes!) and though it was one the longest drives I've been on (not to mention driving with a baby which of course you have to add a couple more hours) Abby did a really good job and I couldn't be more proud of her! She only fussed a couple of times, such a trooper!
We arrived at Matt's sister Allison and her hubbie Tim's house in San Jose on Wednesday, November 23rd around 9pm. We went right to bed and waited for the rest of the family to arrive the next day.
On Thursday, November 24th (Thanksgiving Day woot, woot!!) all the family made it out and it was so nice seeing everyone. Some of the siblings we haven't seen in over two years (WAY TOO LONG!) so it was just so good catching up! Abby loved playing with her cousins Luke, Leona, and Emma-Lee, I just wished we all lived closer.
After many, many hours of cooking (THANKS Tim and Alli, the food was AMAZING!) we enjoyed our delicious Thanksgiving dinner! I loved every single part of it!!
After Thanksgiving we enjoyed a little relaxation! I loved just kicking back, catching up with everyone and not having a worry in the world! Gotta love holidays!!
On Friday, November 25th we took some family pics (to be posted soon) and just spent the rest of the day relaxing and spending time together. We also did a Christmas gift exchange since everyone was there and not everyone (including us) will be there for Christmas day. Matt's brother Thom and Sarah drew our name and got us the cutest monkey pj's! I was so excited to get them cause Matt and I still needed to get Christmas pj's and these are going to work out perfectly!
On Saturday, November 26th we headed home. Abby was a little more fussy with the drive home but after sitting in the same car for over 12 hours you can't really blame her, lol. We made it home safe and sound and ready to not take step in another car for a week! We had so much fun visiting our family and spending so much time together, gotta love holidays!!

This is so cute, lol! Abby LOVED hugging her littel cousin Emma who is only a month younger then her but about 8lbs lighter. We had to tell Abby "be soft" just a couple times, lol. Love this video!
