Turkey Time

 
We left for San Marcos on Paige's birthday.
We watched Paige perform in her 3rd grade musical (her first solo!)
and then picked the kids up from school with the car loaded and ready to go.
 
 
One of the first times we have gotten there at a decent hour. 
Just enough time to celebrate Paige's 9th birthday.
She was completely impressed with Grandma Barb's candy bar cake.
 




 They love waking up to yummy mini-box cereal that we never buy at home, and seeing Molly in her
festive sweater.
 
 

Every occasion calls for My Little Pony.
Under the pergola, perfect.
Grandma gave Paige money to pick out her own set of ponies.
 
 
 
Shane, trying on his racing gear for the turkey trot.
Thank goodness he voted them too uncomfortable to run in.
I love it when he laughs until he cries....priceless!
 
 
 
Ready for the race! 
 

 
The kiddies ran/walked/rodeinastroller too.
Kylie wanted to hold Morgan's hand the whole way.
 
 
The event photographers took pictures of them crossing the finish line.
  Mo swears they won the race.
 



 
 
 
 
It was such a fun race with perfect weather and Barb's first walking event since she donated her kidney to Todd. 
Shane, Brevin, Tyler and I finished and then looped back around the help push strollers and run with the little kids.
 
 
Then, it was time to stuff our faces.
 

 Maybe some of us ate a bit too much!


Saturday was a bit chilly, but we braved the beach anyway. 
Barb, Amy and I bundled under a blanket while the kids played in the sand
and ate the picnic lunch.
The seagulls were feisty.
