Thanksgiving with the Hoopes family

My sister Rachel and her family were able to come up to Chicago from West Virginia again this year for Thanksgiving. Mya had a blast with her cousins and we were happy to have them see Tessa for the first time. Dustin prepared the entire Thanksgiving meal and it was amazing! Mya loved having the "big kids" around and after they left kept calling them "my Zoe and Ian". While they were here we were able to go to the Adler Planetarium, the zoo and the muppet movie. All had a great time and I loved getting to visit not to mention having others around to help with the girls. I hope one day soon the family can all live closer together, it is hard having to go so long between visits.

Mya and our thankful tree. We filled out a leaf everyday with what we were thankful for. Mya's ranged from dresses to nursery to her family. Three year olds are great!
