Gulliver and I made turkey cookies. This was our first adventure together in the kitchen. He stirred the mix for about 30 seconds and then was on to other things. He put 2 candy corns on and then just wanted to eat the cookies. He definitely enjoyed licking the spoon covered with icing! Typical kid. ha
The drive from Crested Butte to Amarillo usually takes about 8 hours, with minimal stops. We made the trip in about 8 1/2 hours both ways. Gulliver did great in the car. He spent a lot of time just looking out the window. His taxi never left his hand. He also entertained himself with lots of babble. I put his red fleece hat on him when we left the house in the morning. Apparently it was quite cozy, because he did not take it off until we arrived in Amarillo... 9 hours later. Oh my. Don't know what was up, but he did not want to take that hat off. Pretty funny.
We enjoyed mild temperatures on Thanksgiving and got to run around in the yard at Aunt Gail & Uncle Brent's house before everyone arrived. The golf cart, of course, was a huge hit.
Aunt Gail brought out the Santa Train and it provided much entertainment. Gulliver suckered anyone he could into playing it with him...
And of course, there was plenty of football to watch...
I didn't take any pictures of the Thanksgiving festivities, but we enjoyed seeing the Moores, the Archers, Aunt Marilyn & Uncle Leon, and Dwayne & Roberta.
We went to the zoo on Friday and got to see lots of animals... monkeys, tigers, lions, bears, snakes, wallabies, and a bunch of other cool stuff...
And Uncle Brent spoiled us with some tasty smoked ribs & chicken on Friday night. Mmmm mmm good! Was great to spend the holiday with family. Gulliver definitely had a good time!
