happy thanksgiving

back to work from the long thanksgiving weekend. we headed to cincinnati to visit grandpa jerry and uncle john and have thanksgiving at aunt mary and  uncle jim's house. alex had a great time hanging out with 2nd cousins, jonah and carolyn, and rough housing with cousin gary. she really enjoyed the noodles, which we will make at home soon. she played with grandpa jerry's trains. we made  our normal trip to the gap clearance center and then hit woodland mound park. we ate too much food. alex really missed blizzard; who must have missed us too, because he was real chatty when we got back and cuddlier than normal. and of course any trip ends with lots of laundry and cleaning, haha. so we got stuff done around the house to get ready to head back to work (which came way too fast.)
