For Thanksgiving this year Justin and I went to Idaho to be with his family. We spent the holiday in Sandpoint where his sister lives. Sandpoint is home to the second largest lake in the U.S. as well as Lighthouse dressings (just a few trivia facts). While in Sandpoint we did a number of fun family activities. We spent some time indoors together playing games and painting pottery. One night we were able to go to a wine bar in Sandpoint while Kasten enjoyed an evening of Mac N' Cheese and a babysitter (I totally remember getting to have Mac N' Cheese as well when I had a babysitter as a child :)). We took professional family photos one chilly morning, followed by brunch at a local restaurant. We had a wonderful Thanksgiving day together that was a combined effort by all. Each of us took about 2 recipes and made them for Thanksgiving dinner. I was in charge of stuffing and butternut squash-just writing this makes me want Thanksgiving dinner all over again. Kasten was about 6 months older than when we had last seen him, and wow, how children change. Not that I didn't know this...but not until I was with him did I realize what a little man he is. He is so sweet and loves spending time with family. We had an awesome trip and look forward to the next one! A shout out to Nichole, Jeremy, and Kasten for hosting Thanksgiving as well as a house full of guests! Another shout out to Justin's parents for driving all the way from MT and for being so generous!
