Turkey in Albuquerque

This year for Thanksgiving Doug was able to convince his parents and little sister to come down.  We were so excited to have company and enjoy the holidays with family.  Everyone flew in Thanksgiving morning and we ate a great feast.  It was my first full Thanksgiving dinner and I was excited and nervous to see the outcome.  It turned out great.  I was especially proud of the turkey.  I can't believe that I didn't get a picture of everyone at dinner, but it was great!

We spent the next few days hiking around albuquerque.  We started with a short hike up the volcanoes behind our house.  It was perfect weather and great to be outside. The next day we were a bit more ambitious and headed about an hour north to Tent Rocks.  It was a great hike with so many beautiful views.

 

 

Later that weekend we were able to enjoy time at home resting, going to movies, playing games, and having a poor mans bon fire in the backyard.  It was a great Thanksgiving and we are so thankful that we were able to share it with family.

We also made a quick trip to the aquarium with Grandma Maggie and Papa Richie before they had to leave.
