Thankful Thanksgiving Weekend 2010

Thanks to Mom and Dad for the wonderful Thanksgiving Day activities at the PV Homestead.

Here are some of the fun things this weekend.

Crossing the finish line at the Turkey Trot...
How many family members can you count?
(I spot 8--Scott T., Brian, Mike, Andrew, Katie, Christian, Heather, Rachel.)
Did I miss anyone?

Decorating the Christmas Tree, two days after Thanksgiving

Helping Babysit Bennett.
He went to sleep after he spit up on my shoulder! Until it was time to eat again.

Looking up funny stuff on the Internet.

Ryan visited with Dylan every chance he could.

Austin and Rachel make it look easy with Baby Bennett, borrowed for a few minutes.

Mom gets one more hug from Ryan, just before he heads back to the Y.

Choo-Choo with Dylan

Dylan took Grandpa Jeff and Grandma Robyn on a train trip.

We boarded at Irvine station, went north through Tustin. At Santa Ana Station we disembarked and waited in the beautiful station courtyard for the return train home. Round trip about 1 hour. We all loved the sights and sounds of a Saturday train ride in sunny Southern CA.

Dylan was impressed at how BIG and LOUD!!! the train is when it pulls into the station.

Dylan loved the scenery as it went by: tunnels (freeway overpasses), street crossings (ding-ding-ding!), and cars whizzing by.

Grandma and Dylan enjoying a quiet moment --on the third level of the train car.

Waiting in Santa Ana for the return ride home.

A nice hug for Grandpa Jeff.
