Thanksgiving was great!

I got to spend some quality time with my parents, my older brother, his wife, and their two kids. We had a great dinner together on Friday, and then on Saturday we took a day trip to do some shopping and sightseeing. Baby Bridget gets cuter every time I see her (which is not nearly often enough). Check her out:



What a doll. I hadn't seen her since May, and Paul and Kristen tell me that she tends to be very shy around people she doesn't know well, but she really seemed to like me. She kept reaching out her arms in an invitation for me to pick her up, and then she would snuggle down on my shoulder. I can't wait to see her again later this month for Christmas and New Year's!
