Giving Thanks in Sedona

We traveled to Sedona for Thanksgiving this year, a lovely tradition that I think we will continue in years to come. Chloe loves her Nana and Poppa, and was so excited that she would finally meet her cousin Carly. Carly just started college in Utah, so she was able to join us for Thankgiving rather than fly home to Minnesota.

Here are some of the fun things Chloe got to do in Sedona:

Pet dogs at the park. Chloe loves little dogs. She had a blast chasing the little poodle around.


Bake with Nana. They made a pumpkin pie, cupcakes and a cake.


Chloe kept checking the pantry to make sure the M&Ms were still there


Eating the "fruits" of her labor!


Chloe instantly fell in love with Carly. She took a nap cuddled up next her to the first day she met her.

Craig and I got to do the Bell Rock loop twice, and Ghislaine, Chloe and I did a little hike too!


Chloe went up this climbing wall about 20 times in a row. . all by herself.


Cleaning up after the awesome Thanksgiving Feast


Relaxing and playing some solitare


Chloe and her new best buddy Carly. She tells me every day how much she misses Carly


Storytime with Poppa John. Chloe gave Poppa kisses on both checks every morning and night. They had a great time together.


Visiting Tlaquepaque. Yes, Chloe is determing whether that is a boy or girl horse. She cleaned out Nana's wallet making wishes. Unfortunately she wished for a trampoline for Christmas. We'll see.
