Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving!  We hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving filled with family, friends, food, and all that we have to be thankful for. 
On Thanksgiving day, we went to Cedar Rapids to Kevin's Grandma's house.  Kevin, Isabelle, and I ate Thanksgiving lunch there with Grandma and Grandpa Larsen, Uncle Dan, Great Grandma Powers, and Great Uncle Mark and Great Aunt Diana.  Unfortunately I was sick with a stomach bug that morning and during the day which left Kevin in charge of the pictures.  :)  He did get three taken :)


The stomach bug went away but ended up turning into a fever of 103.4!!! I only write that number because it is seriously the second highest fever I have ever had in my life, next to the one I had during labor that was in the 104's!  Anyway...I went to bed at 4:30 on Thanksgiving, and thanks to medicine, my fever finally broke.  While I was laying in bed listening to Kevin and Isabelle play that evening it made me realize once again how truly grateful I am to have them in my life.  They are both my world and Isabelle adores her daddy so much.  They are the loves of my lives and knowing they were having so much fun playing made it a little easier to let myself just rest and get better.

Today I woke up fever free so we went to Ames for Thanksgiving at my parents.  There we celebrated with Aunt Amy, Uncle Andy, Ava, Isaiah, Grandma, Grandpa, Great Uncle Dave, and Cousins Tricia, Kayla, and Rochelle!

Time to eat!

My cousin Tricia on the left, and her daughters Kayla, and Rochelle.  It was so good to see them, they live in Texas and Oklahoma so we don't get to see each other often, but when we do it is always lots of fun!

My mom, dad, and Uncle Dave.

Sisters!

Two love birds. :)  (Sorry Andy...I told you I was putting this on the blog) :)
