A Tucson Thanksgiving

This year it was our turn to make our way to Tucson to see the Harger Family.  Last Thanksgiving they came to see us in San Diego (see post here).  What a difference a year makes!

Campbell is the cutest, funniest, loudest and sassiest two-and-a-half year old I know.  I didn't stop laughing at/with her the entire time I was there.  This girl can wrap you around her fingers in seconds!  She was in LOVE with Jackson.  Unfortunately, Jackson did not feel the same way.  As we all know, Jackson likes his personal space, and Campbell wanted to be 'all up in his business'.  If she had her way, she would hug and kiss and dress Jackson up like he was her little doll.  It was so precious listening to her say "JACKSON" in her sassy voice and trying to love on him.

Look at that face!!

This was the theme of the trip- Campbell trying to get Jackson's attention

Coleman has turned into the most lovable little man.  He was so sweet and gentle with Jackson and was even understanding when Jackson didn't share or play by the rules.  Jackson followed him around the entire trip wanting to know what he was doing- he loved having an older boy to follow.  And boy oh boy, you should have seen his face when he saw Coleman going to the bathroom :)  You could just hear him saying in his mind "So cool ... I want to do that!".

With three kids all four and under it was hard to even make it out of the house with everyone clothed, let alone trying to actually get out and do something.  We went out a couple of times for lunch and, per the usual, we had a couple's night out.  The rest of the time we spent at home with the kiddos and it was PERFECT!  A few of the days I didn't even get out of my pajamas, which was nice because I was sick with allergies and a sinus infection :(

Thanksgiving dinner was delicious, complete with ham, turkey, cheesy potatoes, stuffing, green bean casserole, sweet potatoes and the infamous strawberry pretzel cake.  Cari did an amazing job with all of the food, as well as an amazing job of hosting!

Here are a few more pics from the week.

I taught Campbell how to put Olives on her fingers.

Thanks for having us out Hargers.  We had a great time and can't wait until next year.  Love you!!!
