Happy Thanksgiving!

To celebrate Thanksgiving Raegan, my parents and I (Philip had to stay in Norman to serve Chick-fil-A to black Friday shoppers) went to Olathe, Kansas (just outside of Kansas City) this past weekend. It was a 5 hour drive and Raegan did very well, she rode in her big girl carseat. I think she likes it better because she is sitting up instead of laying back, but its not good for sleeping in, her little head just falls straight forward I spent the majority of the trip holding her head up with my hand so she could sleep without straining her neck… (Spoiled, maybe?)
Friday night a group of us went out to eat in Olathe to El Ranchito… mmm it was delicious! They have a queso dip they call Espinaca that I loved! If anyone knows a recipe for it please send it my way! We stayed the night at my Aunt Amber’s house on Friday night. Most of the rest of my family on my mom’s side came up Saturday and we ate around 2. In total there were 32 people at her house, 14 of which were under the age of 14 so it was quite a wild bunch!
Raegan is still not crawling to the point she can get wherever she wants to go quickly, which was hard because she wanted to run and play like the older kids! She loved the dogs and when one of my Grandma’s dogs licked her she opened her mouth and licked him back! Gross, but oh so cute!
Saturday evening the kids played hide and go seek and were running all across Amber’s 3 story home. The men watched sports in the man cave aka the basement and us girls (my mom, grandma, 3 of my aunts, and myself) played Apples to Apples. I also got to see the ending of The Last Castle which was really good. I wanted to stay up and watch My Sister’s Keeper with my aunts, but it was nearly 2am and I was exhausted!
Overall it was a great trip! Its so neat to see all my young cousins playing together, because they are all so close in age. Growing up I didn’t really have any cousins close to my age. It’d be nice if Raegan could have cousins close to her age, because right now we aren’t really planning on having more children.
