Thanksgiving with the Roedas

Sunday we were able to spend the afternoon with part of the Roeda side of Steve's family to celebrate Thanksgiving.  It is always great to see them, but it was extra special as Steve's cousins who live in Ontario, Canada were in town as well.  They have a little girl who is almost 2, so it is fun to see her and to have the little kids play together!  As always, our kids had fun - they were able to play with a dog and some "new to them" toys, so life was good!  With good weather, great food, and even better company, a good time was had by all.

The kids just loved Bella, the dog!  Faith especially was interested in playing with her!

Uncle John and Aunt Sue with their granddaughter, Haley, who was very excited about some new books she received!

Here is Faith showing off some new pjs that Grandma Poelstra gave her.  She was very excited to wear them to bed tonight!

Shane spent quite a bit of time playing with the puzzle that we gave Haley for her birthday.  He tried to take it home with us - he put it down by the door and tried to open the door! - but thankfully he returned it when asked with no tears!

We tried very hard to get an absolutely adorable picture of the three kids together, but surprise, surprise, it was quite a challenge!  This was the best my camera came up with!
