Christmas is nearly a week away, which means I’m shamefully overdue to post an account of our Thanksgiving.
It was the most untraditional one we’ve ever had and probably the most laid-back. My sister, brother-in-law, and two wee nephews drove down for a few days. We did a lot of hanging out and walking around downtown Laguna. Our Thanksgiving dinner consisted of turkey sandwiches on the beach.
It was Lincoln’s second time at the beach, but the first time he’d really explored the sand. Jason and Johnny dug a very deep hole in the sand (as boys do) and filled it up with the two-year-old and more sand. He’s been initiated.
Boone slept as we watched the sunset.
The next day involved a trip to San Diego Zoo where we saw a gorilla and a polar bear very closely. Lincoln is very clever with identifying animals and perched wide-eyed on his daddy’s shoulders for most of the time.
Thanks, Gillespies, for coming for a visit!
