Best Breakfast

On the day after Thanksgiving, mom likes to eat leftovers for breakfast.  This morning mom and Nick shared sunny side up eggs over stuffing with corn muffins on the side.  It was yummy!

Family far away on Thanksgiving

Today we had fun with Bob, Susan and Jesse who came to visit us for Thanksgiving.  But we have family far away and we could not be with them.

In Massachusetts, grammy made a turkey dinner for Amelia and Alasdair.

Henry and Katie were in Arizona visiting their grandparents and cousins.  They ate dinner outside by the pool!

Ryder had Thanksgiving in California, his family moved into their new house today.

And in our house, we did Skype with Jenni, Ryan, Myles and Donna.  They called us just in time for dinner, so we put the computer next to the table so we could see them.

Thanksgiving 2014

Today is Thanksgiving.  School and work are closed, and we make a big dinner and have our family over to visit.

Nick was annoyed in the morning, he wanted to go to school.

Nick helped dad take the turkey out of the oven.

Mom said, "I am so happy you sit down with us and eat the same dinner.  For many years we had to give you pizza to eat."

After dinner we had dessert and Uncle Bob played guitar.  He made up a song for Nick and we were all laughing and having a good time.

Brixx & Barley Restaurant

Last night mom and dad took Nick out to dinner to a new restaurant in Long Beach.

At first Nick did not want to go in, he wanted to have french fries at Burger King.  But mom said now, we were trying a new restaurant.

Nick ended up having a great time, he had lobster mac and cheese and even ate the garlic bread!

Mom said, "this is good news, now we have a new restaurant to go to in Long Beach."

Meatloaf for Dinner

Every Sunday, mom makes dinner for Nick.  And every Sunday, Nick wants to eat chicken.  Today mom said, "I am tired of eating chicken every Sunday, now that the weather is getting cold again we are going to eat meatloaf for dinner."

At first Nick did not want to eat.  But then mom got Nick to take a bite.  And then Nick kept eating.  He finished his whole plate!

Dad at work, far away

Today, dad had to go to work far away, in Baltimore city.  Dad will come home on Thursday night.

Nick watched from the window while dad got in the taxi.

We watched dad go in the taxi and drive away.  

Nick showed mom his Sunday list.  Dad and Nick always go shopping on Sunday.  Mom told Nick, "don't worry, I will take you to your stores today.  Then we will come home and make dinner and go out for ice cream for dessert."

Sunday with Mom

Last week, mom was far away at work.  On Sunday, mom said to Nick, "I missed you a lot while I was gone.  It's a beautiful day in Long Beach, let's do something together."

We went for a long walk on the boardwalk, it was a perfect day, we walked all the way to other side of town, and then went out for lunch.

We took this selfie while we were sitting on the benches.

Mom said, "what a perfect picture to remember this nice day together."
